Our Vision


 

The International Order of Horror Professionals exists to give a holistic focal point to a community that has
been overlooked for far too long. IOHP’s goals include, but are not limited to:


* Providing an atmosphere conducive to collaboration between horror professionals working in the disciplines of literature, art, music and film.

* Adhering to, and instilling in, our members a desire for professional, quality standards.

* Supporting novices who are seeking to polish their craft through mentorship programs which will pair them with professionals who are willing to share knowledge and feedback to creatives newly working in the genre.

* Offering support, encouragement and constructive criticism to those who wish it, regardless of the means (literature, music, art, film or interactive) through which they choose to express themselves.

* Fostering a peer-to-peer atmosphere where we all benefit from our various levels of experience and knowledge.

* Sponsoring contests, online classes, workshops and conferences, as well as other opportunities to learn and hone our craft.

* Establishing a professional presence in the horror community, both online and offline.
 


*
Publishing a quarterly newsletter in electronic
format. The newsletter will include informative articles, market information, contract job opportunities, interviews with genre pros, contests, genre news and more.

* Publishing a yearly anthology that will showcase the best horror literature and artwork exclusively from our members.

* Producing an annual showcase anthology of short horror films produced by our members.

* Our organization will offer two tiers of membership:
Associate and Professional. More details are available
on our Membership page.
