Blending Horror Workshop
Add dread, suspense, and psychological tension without changing what your book is.
Horror transcends being merely a genre; it serves as a powerful toolkit for evoking deep emotions and exploring the human experience. When used with intention, horror elements can amplify stakes, intensify emotional pressure, and make your story impossible to put down, even if you are writing Fantasy, Science Fiction, Mystery, or Romance.
In this workshop, you will learn how to blend horror into your existing genre in a way that supports your tone, strengthens your characters, and keeps readers invested without turning your story into a full horror novel.
Join our live interactive workshop and learn to use fear as a narrative lever.
What you will gain:
2 x live 90 minute interactive workshop sessions with Casey Jones, plus replays for each session
A practical framework for weaving dread, suspense, and psychological terror into any genre
Tools for controlling intensity and tone so your story stays aligned with reader expectations
