Frequently Asked Questions

What makes something 'scary' versus regular horror?

We focus on content where tension never lets up - stories that get under your skin through atmosphere and anticipation, not just gore. Think creeping dread rather than shock value.

Are there different types of scares?

Absolutely! Some stories build fear through unknown threats, others through psychological manipulation. We include everything from paranormal chills to real-world terrors.
