There's Something Wrong With The Children: An Online Queer Horror Panel

It's getting hot in here! 

Hot like the feeling of being a tomboy running around, sweating and breathing with the other boys, hot like summer camps, hot like sticky melted ice lollies, and hot like new UK releases! 

Join us this June 27th from your very own screen! As some really talented writers with some hot books to come, will talk about queer childhoods and teenagedooms, and why their presence and importance in horror. 

So pull a couple chairs on your garden, make yourself a drink, and gather some of your most horror loving friends, as we talk all things growing up horrific!
