I don't want to give spoilers, but I will say that there are a few illusions/technical feats in this show that are WILD.

I saw Paranormal Activity on Broadway this past Saturday and it was INCREDIBLE. I can't stop thinking about it. Not only was the cast and production itself amazing, but the audience was fabulous! Actual screams and gasps throughout! It felt like being at a midnight screening, but live!

Had a rough writing morning today, but this afternoon I learned I sold a story! When I can, I'll share more info. This one is a horror story about a desperate, full-of-drama emo band.

Tim Curry and Dolly Parton have taught us not only that you should be bigger, weirder, gayer, and freakier, but also that those qualities are what people will love about you. The things that make you strange and amazing are the things that will resonate with other strange and amazing people

There’s an even more sinister angle to Johnny Depp’s ongoing “comeback” tour as the new Scrooge—it’s a Paramount production and part of a slate of Ellison-backed conservative cultural takeover attempts. It’s angled around MeToo rejection and the manosphere. spitfirenews.com/p/johnny-dep...

Johnny Depp's 'comeback' is billionaire manosphere marketing

Plus, why smart glasses can't escape the 'pervert' label.

I can't seem to stop writing horror stories about lonely people. Even when I try not to do this, I still do. Anyone else have a character type that naturally pops up in their writing? #writesky #horrorfic

🍂 Caitlin Duffy 🍂 @caitduffy.bsky.social · 25/07/2026

Maybe this shouldn't shock me but I couldn't believe how much easier it is to write at home than in public.

There are some really great horror/thriller reads out there that really hit those ☀️summer vibes☀️ (even if they aren't set in the summertime). IT, Whalefall, Small Town Horror, Diavola... Are there any you'd recommend I read before the season is out? #horrorfic

It should have been $150,000 per title. It should have put Anthropic out of business and made me and other authors financially secure enough to keep writing and keep creating and keep fighting. We’re getting a token gesture. Anthropic won here. They pay a pittance (for them) and can do it again.

Ti West????? Why? Isn't the entirety of "A Christmas Carol" essentially Scrooge's origin story? What could this movie possibly be about? I also can't stop reading the tagline because it is beautifully, wonderfully, dumb. And the pose/twinkly eyes is giving real whimsical energy which is confusing.

Yes! I love a horror story that overwhelms the reader with sensory detail!

🍂 Caitlin Duffy 🍂 @caitduffy.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

I try not to show too much, I want the reader to fill in the blanks. Plus, I love a cosmic entity that can't be captured in letters and words. They scare my characters just by being. ...and by permanently altering my main characters, usually for the worst. #horrorwriterschat

🍂 Caitlin Duffy 🍂 @caitduffy.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

Oh my gosh, YES! Ghost Eaters has an amazing office bathroom scene, you're right! I love the urban legend vibe the red shoes story gives off. I know I'm wrong for this, but I have yet to play any Legend of Zelda games...I know, I know...maybe know is my time!

🍂 Caitlin Duffy 🍂 @caitduffy.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

This is a fun one! Kind of a lame answer, but I figure out the story first (or at least the set up) and then the theme (or whatever I'm exploring) becomes more clear as I write. Basically, I let the monster take the wheel. #horrorwriterschat

🍂 Caitlin Duffy 🍂 @caitduffy.bsky.social · 22/07/2026

Hi, everyone! I missed doing these! I write horror fiction, primarily cosmic horror. The Thing is a classic for a reason. I really like monsters that can't be contained, that are overwhelming in their very being. #horrorwriterschat

Horror writers and readers: what's an everyday location you believe is criminally underused in #horrorlit ? Give me your most mundane horror! I'm convinced office bathrooms have potential, so I'm using that as a key setting in my current #WIP. #writesky #writingcommunity

Two adult men in a public bathroom. One is standing at the center, the other is leaning against a sink. The lighting is dim.

I just saw a meme that said “get in losers, we’re reclaiming the emdash”. People. PEOPLE. Where are your STANDARDS? It CLEARLY should be “get in, losers — we’re reclaiming the em dash.”

For the past few months, I've been unable to come up with any story ideas, so I haven't really been writing. This morning, I gave myself an hour to sit and play around in a Word Doc. So excited to have a few ideas FINALLY. I've missed writing stories so much!

A reminder that every small bit of good you do - whether it be putting art into the world, helping a friend or stranger, donating to a good cause, or just listening to someone who needs to vent - offsets all the evil in the world just a little bit. And sometimes that's just what the world needs.
