Queer Horror Awards
The Queer Horror Awards were created to honor works that involve significant, and generally positive, portrayal of gay, lesbian, bisexual or transgender characters, issues or themes within the area of horror. Horror, for the purposes of these awards, includes things traditionally considered horror, as well as dark fantasy, noir, and even other genres if they are dealing with significant horror elements, such as ghosts, vampires, werewolves, or other monsters.
Many types of items are appropriate for these awards, and include (but are not necessarily limited to):
movies
tv shows
short stories
novels
scholarly articles
Nominations for the awards are open to the public...
