Frequently asked questions

What is the best theme for horror?
True Crime and Terminal — both use slow typewriter pacing and a stark, cinematic layout that heightens tension.
How do I make it scary?
Slow the pacing down and use the typing indicator as a scare — an unanswered "…" is the format's scariest frame. The horror guide walks through it.
Is it free?
Yes — free to make and export (with a small watermark).
