Trigger and Content Warnings

Hi everyone, Aaron here.

“The Incident on Melancholy Lane” is a story classified in the horror genre. This means that there will inevitably be situations in which uncomfortable and potentially upsetting or triggering content may occur. I will do my best to place warnings before chapters that I feel may be more on the intense side, but I decided to place this here as a list of potential subjects that may come up in the story. I will try to keep this list updated if anything else not initially covered here is added. Here’s the list:

-Familial abuse

-Animal abuse

-Gaslighting

-Bullying

-Extreme violence/gore

-Vulgar language

-Scary situations/imagery

-Self-harm

***

This is the most up to date list as of 4/25/22.

If you think there’s something else I should add to this list, please let me know. As a horror story, I want it to make my readers uncomfortable, but not in a non-fun, triggering manner.

I hope you enjoy the story. If you do, please remember to like and leave a review. Thank you.
