The Official HDC Top 100 Horror Writers
Almost 7 months in the making, and here we are. Finally.
Thanks to everyone who contributed with their lists and their inputs. Blurbs are appreciated and welcome, and can be sent to my PM box. Remember, this is a ranked list. Some of you might not agree with the rankings, but overall, this is a pretty solid 100 we have hammered out. Without further ado...
