Some books on horror-writing I've found useful in the past: Dictionary of Demons, by Fred Gettings (Trafalgar Square Publications 1988). A guide to demons and demonologists in occult lore. www.amazon.com/Dictionary-Demons-Guide-Demonologists-Occult/dp/094395505XWriting Horror Fiction, by Guy N Smith (A&C Black, 1996) The pulp legend's advice on the craft, and one of the best 'how to write a book' books I've ever come across. Needs updating, though - I'd like to see a revised version that takes into account eBooks and the current state of the market. www.amazon.co.uk/Writing-Horror-Fiction-Handbooks/dp/0713643390/ref=pd_sim_b_4On Writing Horror: A Handbook by the Horror Writers of America (Writer's Digest, 2nd edition 2007) A collection of essays that discusses all aspects of the horror writing game. I've only got the first edition, so I'd like to know what folk think about the new version. www.amazon.co.uk/Writing-Horror-Handbook-Writers-America-22/dp/1582974209There's loads more I can think of, but I'll have to have a look through my library first. In the meantime, please feel free to add to this thread the titles (and links) to any textbooks or manuals that you've found useful.
