About this event

  • 1 day 6 hours

Come join us in a haunted city for two days of horror, gothic and ghost story writing!

Following on from the success of the annual Winter Haunts virtual event, Spring Haunts comes to York for an in-person writing weekend packed with workshops, feedback sessions, guest authors and more! If you're looking to develop your dark fiction writing further, looking to learn new skills in the field or seeking inspiration from fellow authors, then this could be the weekend for you.

The event will be held at the Council Chambers, York Guildhall and facilitated by lecturer, workshopper and Writing Magazine regular contributor Alex Davis.
