This is Horror

I am going to add this to the list of reliable sources at WP:HORROR/S. Here are the reasons why:

This is Horror has been around for a while. Its about page has praise from various well-known authors like Stephen Graham Jones and David Moody (writer). One of the site collaborators, Anya Martin, has served as a juror for the Shirley Jackson Award.

The site hosts the podcast The Outer Dark by Scott Nicolay, which was nominated for a Rondo-Hatton Classic Horror Award for Achievements in Horror Studies. This would imply that the rest of the website is also of high quality.

The site has been used as a source in other RS. (Bloomsbury Publishing, University of Wales Press, ALA, Springer, Lexington Books/Rowman & Littlefield)

Their annual award was also listed in a historical dictionary of horror by Rowman & Littlefield. The list of winners was covered in Locus Online in 2021 and 2020. This implies that it has likely been covered in other years as well.

The site has also been somewhat used on Wikipedia already, but I wanted to make a good case on the talk page in case someone questions it in the future. ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (｡◕‿◕｡) 01:25, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
