Representation
James H. Summers — Psychological Horror
I am seeking literary representation for a growing body of psychological-horror work built for both publication and long-term adaptation.
These are voice-driven, character-first stories grounded in realism and designed to sustain escalation across multiple books and formats.
Available Material
- Completed manuscripts
- Prestige series bibles (18–25 episode structures)
- Structured episodic breakdowns and character arcs
- Pitch materials and visual tone assets
Materials are prepared for immediate review and positioned for both publishing and screen adaptation pathways.
Current Projects
Second Chances
Status: Complete manuscript
Book Two in the First Responder trilogy. Fully written, with a completed 25-episode prestige series bible.
Hemoglobin Insecure
Status: Complete manuscript
Book Three. Positioned for publication with adaptation development aligned to the acquiring partner.
Book Four
Status: In progress
Expands the continuity and long-form narrative across the broader psychological-horror framework.
Positioning
My work is built around psychological realism, controlled escalation, and character-driven tension.
It avoids spectacle-first horror in favor of recognition, implication, and emotional pressure.
The catalog supports both standalone titles and a connected structure capable of long-term development across multiple books and screen adaptations.
