In 2024 the Horror Writers Association deepened their relationship the University of Pittsburgh Library System and its Horror Studies Collection for a special opportunity.

In late 2023, they acquired the Stanley Wiater Archive of Modern Horror. Wiater is a prolific interviewer, author, and commentator whose archive not only includes drafts, manuscripts, and notes for his written works but also over 650 cassettes of interviews. The HWA in conjunction with the University of Pittsburgh is looking to raise $2,500.00 in addition to funds for HWA general scholarships, to support the cost of a student to work part-time to assist in processing this collection which will include sorting, labeling, and cataloging the paper materials as well as aiding in the transcription process for the interviews once they have been digitized.

We believe these efforts will not only strengthen the relationship between the University and the HWA but also allow future generations to study and gain access to the interviews conducted by Mr. Wiater which contain an invaluable history of the genre and organization and documents the words of HWA members past and present including Clive Barker, Jack Ketchum, Nancy Kilpatrick, Stephen King, Joe R. Lansdale, Graham Masterton, Anne Rice, Chelsea Quinn Yarbro, and many, many more.
