kindreadspirits is a new chat and fanworks community centred around making the most of the gay subtext abundant in a lot of vintage horror and classic ghost stories, namely of the Victorian through the Edwardian era and towards the middle of the 20th Century.

Another main purpose is to actually find the relevant stories within the plethora of horror fiction from the olden days, so a main focus of this community is to let each other know what we simply must read/listen to at the first opportunity!

We write and gossip about gentlemen haunted by spooks and secret urges alike, so in the fashion of all gentlemen's clubs, Kindread Spirits is members-only. You must be 18 or older to become a member, as some content posted may well be explicit. (Please read the whole profile for other essential info!)

Chat is very much encouraged! Post about anything related to M/M slash potential in your favourite stories and novels - your chosen pairings and most beloved characters, quotes, and plot points. Post about authors you admire, ask for research or writing help, share interesting story finds and information, tell us about exchanges upon which we might want to descend, moan about your WIPs, ask for beta-readers, participate in (and suggest) challenges, post playlists or icons or mood boards you've made, etc.
