The HAUNTER Review profile can be found on ChillSubs, Duotrope, and Poets&Writers! We do our best to ensure that all information and instructions are consistent across these platforms; however, if something appears inaccurate, please email us at haunterreview@gmail.com to request a correction.

We accept submissions on a quarterly basis, publishing 4 digital issues per year. Submissions are open for HAUNTER during the following days: WINTER ISSUE:  Dec 1 - Jan 1SPRING ISSUE:  Mar 1 - Apr 1SUMMER ISSUE:  Jun 1 - Jul 1FALL ISSUE:  Sept 1 - Oct 1

Our acceptance rate is approximately 10%. We receive around 60-80 submissions per submission round and accept 5-7 pieces for publication.

Please see the 'SUBMIT' category at the top of the page for instructions.

Response time largely depends on the submission load and availability of our volunteer editors. We usually average between 3 to 6 weeks for decision emails to be sent out. If we foresee a longer waiting time, our Editor-in-Chief will send a follow-up email regarding your submission's editorial status and a tentative decision release date.

Acceptances are proportional to the number of submissions per genre and will vary depending on the publication issue. Typically, we will publish 1-2 scripts, 2-3 poems, and 3-4 fiction pieces. Again, these numbers fluctuate with each issue.

We recently adjusted our publication schedule from our previous every-other-month routine to 4 seasonal issues per year.

Yes, we do! Please let us know that your submission is simultaneous in your cover letter (this does not affect the selection process at all; it is just something that we would like to be aware of in case you decide to withdraw for other acceptances).
