Stifled desires, visceral bodies, and sickeningly sinister scenes are just some of the ways Lucy Rose and Jessie Elland are leading the rise of the ‘femgore’ genre. Join the authors as they discuss how their new novels The Lamb and The Ladie Upstairs are both reinventing and celebrating the legacy of horror fiction with their focus on the female body and distinctive northern settings.

Lucy Rose is the author of the Sunday Times’ bestselling novel, The Lamb.  She lives in Newcastle. Jessie Elland is an actress (‘Emmerdale’) and author from the North East. The Ladie Upstairs is her debut novel.
