do you have a favorite type of horror? Like body horror, cosmic horror, slasher horror, stuff like that

Any kinda horror works for me, but slasher and horrors-that-involve-death-games take the cake for me!

body horror!!!!!! i love it i love things looking deformed and fucked up, love to mutilate the human form

Folk horror is my absolute favorite (hence why I adore Project Moon so much) but psychological and comedy horror are also up there

I thought this said armor and I was about to reply that leather armor in games always looks cool as fuck.

But for horror, cosmic/eldritch horror has always been my favourite!

ALL. ALLLLLLLLL okay /j but personally my favorite is phycological, those with interesting lore are really good too.

The normal day to day life turning into a nightmare with just a seemingly normal stuff that's actually pretty horrific, your most trusted person is acting weird and you don't know what to do, they keep smiling you don't know why. Those kind of stuff really make me want to not sleep snd that's the best part, I love gore plenty but not in action like slasher, I just like body horror.

THERE'S A LOT LOT LOT I WILL BE NOISY ABT IT, but maybe tomorrow,, it's 4am now ;; gn

Favorite type probably would be ambient horror. Like, it's the atmosphere that something MAY jumpscare you that keeps me awake

probably scifi or torture. But why did I find an infographic on google that lists kaiju as a horror subgenre

Body horror my beloved, if done well it can be unnerving but I really wanna try to draw like that-

cosmic horror is swag. i love feeling like human existence feels so overwhelming but is nothing in the grand scale of everything. throw me into an endless abyss and watch me disappear in the grand emptiness of it all

I'm a weeny and can't handle horror, but my favorite horror is people trapped somewhere together with tons of paranoia, like The Shining or The Thing

oh hm i guess psychological horror or like demonic possesion. i'm not really a huge horror fan anymore though

Psychological horror. Easiest way to scare someone and to give me nightmares for 15 weeks. The only problem with it is that most producers don't know how to use it properly and it unfortunately falls flat. Body horror is a close second though :)
