[QUOTE="SteelyJ, post: 405319, member: 3751"] Nice to meet you guys @Direwolf: Weird Fiction can be hard to describe, but is a sort of non-mainstream, literary horror. It's not ghosts or vampires or slashers. It can sometimes include elements that would normally be associated with scifi or fantasy or mainstream horror. Weird authors include HP Lovecraft, Thomas Ligotti, Laird Barron, and even some Stephen King is weird fiction flavored. Lovecraft once wrote that the Weird has a ‘certain atmosphere of breathless and unexplainable dread” or “malign and particular suspension or defeat of…fixed laws of Nature." I'm not allowed to post outside links for 7 days, but if you google Jeff Vandermeer The Weird introduction you can read, in full, the introduction to a massive anthology of Weird Fiction that Jeff and his wife Ann edited.
