Suspense Genre

For this final project I plan to write a short story based on the Horror and Suspense genre. I have been planning on making up my own storyline and characters to make the short story my own. I want to break off from the classic horror movie I am basing it off the “new” logic of what horror truly is, and the question I am asking is “What is true horror of this day and age?” I will be solving it through my story. It will be fresh and new, some will say it is a spinoff between multiple horror movies, but it is something that comes out of my own mind. I feel it will be a very well written horror story that cannot be compared to. It will be a story from first person and the style of sections not just one whole paragraph with no break.

The story will not be super gruesome I will not be describing in full detail what happens to the students because I like people to imagine it for themselves in their minds. My short story will be detailed but the deaths will not be so detailed to a point where it is sickening. The title of my short story is “Town of Massacres” I have chosen this title because in the town only bad things happen and it always ends with someone losing their life. The way I would pitch this to a professional website or journal would be by giving them a synopsis of the book which would be explained as “Six college students are trying to find the perfect story for their group film project, and during research they find a town called Revel a small town just 3 hours East of their hometown. Their story is about what causes the mysterious disappearance of every civilian that lived there and all who have visited the town. They then pack up their stuff then head out, but they never knew this would be the last time they would see their homes.” The story will be a suspenseful mystery that would be enjoyable to lovers of this
