A graphic with a black-and-white heart and blood splatter effect. On it, “HORRMANCE” is defined as “stories that incorporate romance with horror in a variety of ways.” Some book examples of horrmance are provided: A Dowry of Blood, Her Soul to Take, Vampires of El Norte, Darkhouse, and Waxing Off.
So... Horrmance. What’s that? Well, to start, it’s a portmanteau! Just like brunch is a combination of breakfast and lunch, horrmance is a combination of horror and romance! 🧟♀️💘 (1/3)
