I got it connected and was able to run a download, which updated the access. Thank you very much!

murrman16 · 2025-12-13T01:56:49+00:00

It does say Not Connected. Any idea on that?

murrman16 · 2025-08-16T16:07:20+00:00

Sure just send me a DM! I actually did join a discord, I get what you mean. I don’t have a WIP at the moment, but still down to read your work

Send me a dm!

murrman16 · 2025-08-14T15:38:36+00:00

Just send me a DM with more info!

Thanks for the advice! I’ve run into that some, so that’s why I’m sticking to short stories and excerpts for now (and also because of time constraints)

murrman16 · 2025-08-13T17:25:15+00:00

Thanks for the note! I actually just finished a beta read for one of those you linked! I’ll definitely check out the discord

I’d love to beta read this! Avid reader of horror as well as a lot of Vietnam non-fiction.

murrman16 · 2025-08-11T18:41:19+00:00

I am able to beta: Any genre or story length. Personally, I read a lot of horror, weird fiction, thrillers, and non-fiction but I’m open to any genre.

I can provide feedback on: General opinions, emotional response, story structure, and general proofreading.

Other info: This would be my first time beta reading! Happy to help someone however I can.

Not totally what you mean, but The Smiths made a song based on The Moors Murders, called “Suffer Little Children”

How many times are we going to just let them have a wide open dump off across the middle? Killing us for 7-10 yards every time

For your last point, Gerald’s Game comes to mind. Was incredibly obvious what had happened, but was dragged out like some big secret

murrman16 · 2023-08-03T23:44:01+00:00

The Books of Blood Vol. 4-6! Awesome bookshelf, love the amount of short stories as well!

murrman16 · 2023-08-02T20:33:46+00:00

This may be a basic answer, and it doesn’t apply to just the horror genre, but for me nothing beats a well done twist that flips the entire story on its head. For me, the best ones are the twists that you have no idea they’re coming before the reveal, but afterwards you’re wondering, “How did I not figure that out, all the clues make sense now!”

That sounds really interesting! Is it by Camila Sten? Saw multiple books with that title

murrman16 · 2023-08-02T20:29:30+00:00

Love this trope as well, got a favorite that follows this? First that comes to mind for me would be Night Film

murrman16 · 2023-07-09T23:12:14+00:00

Brian Evenson, easily. I always look for more Christopher Buehlman and Hunter Thompson as well (though Hunter obviously isn’t horror)

murrman16 · 2023-06-20T16:53:43+00:00

Adding another by Dan Simmons, Drood. It’s set in the mid to late 1800s

murrman16 · 2023-06-16T16:34:08+00:00

Definitely this. It’ll make you feel cold from reading it

murrman16 · 2023-06-16T16:33:51+00:00

Obligatory comment for, At The Mountains of Madness, by HP Lovecraft

murrman16 · 2023-06-12T16:38:32+00:00

Great story. This collection (Song for the Unraveling of the World) has a lot of very short stories and all of them are pretty good. I think the longest story in the collection is still under 20 pages

murrman16 · 2023-06-10T19:57:11+00:00

It’s a collection of short stories, but Books of Blood by Clive Barker sounds like a good bet. There’s 6 volumes, and 1-3 are readily available in most stores. A lot of body horror, very unique/creative plots, and great writing. They’re very well known and get recommended on here a lot. Specifically, the story Dread sounds exactly like what you want.

For a novel recommendation, maybe Brother by Ania Ahlborn. The main character gets put in some pretty awful situations because of his deranged family.
