Based on current community feedback as well as some discussion on discord, below are the first set of proposed changes to the initial 9 horror type tags.
While trying to pin down horror types definitively may not be feasible, I really do hope that these tags can function to help better matching between requests and offers in this exchange.
Overlap, as several have pointed out and I completely agree with, is most likely unavoidable. All the same, the intention of these tags is to provide a sort of emphasis on the type of horror that one would want to focus on.
For example, as was raised during a discussion on discord yesterday, zombies could potentially be included in various tags. If Requester A is interested in horror focused on surviving a zombie apocalypse, they may choose Survival Horror as a tag. On the other hand, if Requester B is interested in horror focused on someone's physical features morphing as they turn, they may choose Body Horror as a tag. (And so on.)
With that in mind, please see below for the first set of proposed changes. I hope this addresses some of the main concerns brought up thus far.
Feedback on these proposals is very welcome! I would like to know the community's stance before making any of the changes final.
