Horror and the Effects of Fear - Creative Writing Workshop

About this event

Join authors Moira Hodgkinson and Julie Malone, known collectively as The Scare Sisters, for an exploration of horror writing and the psychology of fear. This creative writing workshop examines what defines horror as a genre, explores personal triggers of fear, and investigates the physiological responses that occur when people experience fright.

Moira Hodgkinson brings thirty years of spiritual practice and teaching experience, alongside published works in contemporary pagan fiction, urban fantasy, and horror. Julie Malone contributes two decades of writing expertise, having published thirteen books and organised numerous literary events and competitions across the East Midlands. Both facilitators offer practical insights into crafting compelling horror narratives through their established careers in writing and community engagement.
