When I set out to write a supernatural horror novel, I had one goal: to unsettle the reader just enough that they’d want to keep the lights on. I had the eerie setting, the backstory, and the build-up, but the draft lacked the kind of pacing and precision the genre demands. The tension sagged in a few places, and some of the scares felt predictable. I needed a fresh pair of eyes who understood how psychological unease works on the page. Working with British Proofreading was exactly the push the book needed. My editor helped cut the fat without killing the mood, guided me on when to hint and when to hit, and gave incredibly thoughtful feedback on how to deepen both the fear and the emotional stakes. By the end of the edit, the story was sharper, more chilling, and far more effective. If you're writing horror and want readers to feel genuinely haunted, this is the editorial team you want by your side.
