HORROR, Inc. Presents...
** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only **
We at HORROR, Inc. know how hard it is to generate reviews for our Horror/Scary items. We can post to every plug page on the site and still…nothing. So, we have decided to post a public review request page for items that you have written in the genre. Feel free to post any item that has the Horror/Scary, Dark, or Supernatural genres listed. Any rating is welcome from ASR to XGC. We encourage you to review other people’s posted items as well. Doing so will only generate more reviews for you *Smile*.


Just remember that Authors that post here want an honest opinion. How else are they going to learn and grow? Please be as helpful and honest as possible. But above all, be respectful and courteous. Not a single one of us is in the business of shattering dreams. Enjoy! Now get writing!


*CheckR*All written text in plugs should not exceed this item's 13+ rating. (The content of any Item Intros must fit within the 13+ rating.)

*CheckR*Please post each item only one time per page. Once it has been pushed off the bottom of the page, you are welcome to add it again.

*CheckR*Please limit your posts to 3 different items on the page at any one time.
