101 Haunted Location Writing Prompts (101 Horror Writing Prompts Series)

By Kevin Lintner

Not all hauntings are confined to institutions.
Some are scattered across the world... waiting to be found.

From abandoned lighthouses battered by relentless seas to forgotten mines that still breathe in the dark... from cursed theaters where the final act never ends to desolate battlefields that refuse to fall silent...

101 Haunted Location Writing Prompts is a wide-ranging collection of horror story ideas designed to take you beyond the walls-and into the world.

This is not a companion piece.
This is not a sequel.
This is a completely standalone volume built for writers who want variety, scope, and limitless creative terrain.
