Live Training with Jenny Kiefer.
About This Training
-101 Level or Intermediate-
So many great horror stories isolate their characters at a single location, whether it’s a snowed-in haunted hotel, a cursed forest, or even an escape room. This program will explore how authors utilize a “locked-room” setting to produce terrifying fiction. Learn the ropes and the tropes of locked-room horror, and how you might add something new to this very old sub-genre of horror.
