allbingoWelcome! We are now open!
The Horror Bingo will run throughout the month of October. The theme for the month of October is Horror or Halloween. Make a bingo by creating fanworks or an orig works that focusses on horror or supernatural theme. Everything that is allowed inallbingo is allowed during this month too. Fanworks or orig works including but not limited to -- fics, art, icons, wallpapers, podfics, poems, meta, vids, rec lists, crafts, cakes (I know many Harry Potter fans who created their own recipes for pumpkin juice, non-alcoholic butterbeer etc). So let your imagination go wild!
The bonus theme for this month is remixes. So if you wish, you may make one or more remixes (please make sure you have permission to do so!).
If you wish to create one or more remixes, here are a few links to find transformative works policies:
1. List of fan creators who give blanket permission.
2. Blanket no to podfic.
Rules for Remixes:
1. Link to fanworks you're remixing and credit the original fan-creator.
2. Don't make it personal. A good parody celebrates the original and doesn't tear it down.
3. Your remix can be comedic or dramatic.
4. I know crack is a sensitive issue, so ask for permission to make a crack remix if it's not specified in the transformative works policy of the fan-creator.
5. Want to change pairing? Gender of characters? If it's not specified, talk to fanwork creator and get permission.
You may volunteer your own fanworks for other participants to use (please see comments!) or you may check the list of fan-creators who give blanket permissions to have their fanworks remixed.
I allow remixes based on my fanwork (as long as your goal isn't to humiliate me!). Also check my transformative works policy for the exception list first. But it's not necessary to ask for permission beforehand.
From my last bingo event, here's lilly_c's transformative works policy.
You may create your own card, or use one of the Halloween-themed cards linked here (thanks again togigglingkat for allowing me to borrow them!), or you may use the public card I created for this month.
Special bingo patterns for October: the capital letter 'H' or the small letter 'h'. Which of course stands for Halloween and horror. For an example, see below the public card.
Examples:
For a bingo using the capital letter 'H': you may use the prompts Ghostly Chill, Gore, Friendly/Misunderstood Ghosts and Monsters, Mummies, Vampires, Wild Card, Poe, Warlocks/Wizards/Witches, Urban Legends, Psychological Horror, Extra-Sensory Perception (11 prompts and fills).
You may also make a bingo using a smaller version (7 prompts and fills), example by removing Ghostly Chill, Poe, Vampires and ESP.
For a bingo using the small letter 'h': you may use the prompts Ghostly Chill, Gore, Friendly/Misunderstood Ghosts and Monsters, Mummies, Vampires, Wild Card, Urban Legends, Psychological Horror, Extra-Sensory Perception (9 prompts and fills).
You may also make a bingo using a smaller version (6 prompts and fills), example by removing Ghostly Chill, Vampires and ESP.
Any questions, suggestions, corrections, please feel free to comment! Also, please note that I'm following the US timezone. I mean, I'm guessing that majority of the members here are Americans so this way may be less confusing.
