Question concerning the "Horror week" tags

I looked through the tags, and I noticed (at least) three different variants of the "Horror week" tag, either classifying it as "theme", an "event" or a "series". Which one is the proper one?

	Series, along with all the other special weeks. I shall do a tag clean up. (Reply to this)

	Fucking Uzumaki, man. It was extremely well-written. I think it's the mark of a good writer that they can take something completely bloody ridiculous--LIKE SPIRALS--and make them completely shit-scary. I mean, I loved Uzumaki, but it did terrify me. Same with the Amigara Fault story (which was even worse for me because I'm already severely claustrophobic). (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Yeah. It's pretty hard to scare me to the point where I can't sleep, but that did it for me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Well, that night was horrible. I expected to have a hard time getting to sleep but ended up only getting an hour or two thanks to the rock-silhouette induced nightmares. O_o I honestly felt like I was being haunted by them. Heck, I woke up in my room and went to wake my mother up out of fear and then woke up in my room again realizing THAT was a dream. Got some sleep thanks to lights on, tv on, cats on bed, finally.

Didn't expect a horror story (specially one featuring something as immobile as a hole carved in a wall) to frighten me that much, but geeeeeeeez.

	I wound up not sleeping at all the first time I read it. D: See, if a writer is good enough, they can make anything completely terrifying. Including spirals and holes in rock walls. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Seriously, all you gotta say to some people out there is DRR DRR DRR and they'll squirm in their seats. You can totally do that in a crowd (I dunno how well it works verbally, but in a chat, maybe) and immediately pick out everyone who's read it. Hehe (Reply to this) (Parent)
