Writing horror stories

I love watching horror movies and horror/suspense TV shows and think this would be a really good genre to write for. Does anyone here have experience with these type of horror or suspense stories or know how to break into that genre?

I absolutely LOVE suspense, and horror flicks. I've never tried writing that genre. I think someday I may just pursue that direction. Aside from my regular articles, my stories surround erotica and specific fetishes.

My imagination though could easily take me down the suspense highway. Writing horror storiesWriting horror storiesWriting horror stories

I am in india now ,,, you can find many hunted places here ,, you can get to know many hunted stories in small towns. So I got a chance to write a article on it . You know I was writing the article ,but on that day it became too late night while writing. And you won't belive what a horrifying condition was there. I was really scared.

I love reading it but writing it would be a different story for me. I am not that good with horror!

The key to writing horror is to know how to weave suspense into the story. It's not good enough to have a mad man chasing teens through a town wielding a hatchet. You have to draw out events for awhile to create suspense and then bring things gradually to a peak and then it's all a fast downhill ride from there to the end.

I do not much care for horror so I would never be good at horror writing. I am just not creative enough there.

I once had joined a forum with horror stories as genre. There was a board where we can submit short stories like a blog. I think I had written more than 5 horror stories that I had submitted. I didn't get paid though and I understand that it was a struggling forum at the time. I just don't know if it has prospered. Anyway, writing horror stories is difficult. What I did was to write it at night when everyone was already asleep. I have to feel the fear and be scared by my imagination so the story would really flow naturally. Can you imagine writing a horror story at midnight when you are alone in the living room?

So far I have written only one horror story and this story was published on a newspaper and I was paid $15 for 1500-word horror story. I think I am not good at writing horror stories. However, I really want to try my hands on writing horror stories.
