Scream For Me is an ongoing fanfiction written by The Last Flowerchild. The series follows the hilarious misadventures of horror movie icons Jason Voorhees, Freddy Krueger, Michael Myers, and Ghostface, as roommates, with Freddy as the main character. The series opens up with God creating the earth, as foretold in genesis, but glosses over that in favor of the horror movie icons' births. it gets better from there.
While the series is mostly a comedy, it does have it's heart-felt and dramatic moments, such as when the group is evicted from their apartments. The series is rife with cameos, and has recently continued in a spinoff, mainly following Jason and Michael, though it hasn't been updated in a long time. Can be found here

Contains examples of the following tropes:
- Ambiguously Gay: Ghostface, full-stop. Constantly tries to rape Michael, saying that he thinks he looks like a woman when he's high to justify it.
- Anti-Hero: The entire cast, really. While it's relatively easy to forget, the main cast are all psychotic killers.
- Back from the Dead: The cast does this multiple times, in fact, this was what they were trying to accomplish in the first episode.
- Black-and-Gray Morality: While the main cast are all psychotic killers, they're almost normal compared to the psychos they deal with most of the time.
- Berserk Button: Calling Jason a retard and/or insulting his mother, telling Freddy he lost in Freddy vs. Jason, messing with Michael's shampoo, or taking Ghostface's drugs away from him.
- Breaking the Fourth Wall: Shifts between this, while the characters are all aware of their respective films/and, or know they are movie characters (Michael gets a copy of Halloween for Christmas) yet, they act as if all of their experiences in those films, as well as their back stories, are real.
- Christmas Episode: Episode 27 is the series' official Christmas special, revolving around a How the Grinch Stole Christmas! style plot, with Freddy as the Grinch.
- Crack Fic: AND HOW!? Most of the early chapters revolve around the cast dealing with random horror movie villains trying to kill them.
- Crapsack World: Can be seen as this, being as it seems in this world, most horror movie icons are real.
- Crossover: Mainly for the Friday the 13th, Nightmare on Elm Street, Halloween, and Scream franchises, although it has cameos for characters from many other horror series.
- Death Is Cheap: In a series where the main characters (excluding Ghostface) have all come back from the dead multiple times, would anyone really expect death to matter?
- Sir Swears-a-Lot: The whole cast really, but Freddy swears the most, you could count his lines when he doesn't curse more easily than when he does.
- Switching P.O.V.: Tends to do this often, showing Freddy and Jason's P.O.Vs most.
- Take That!: One episode focuses entirely on the scandal with Kanye West and Taylor Swift, while another is one long jab at the War on Drugs, with one part specifically making fun of the "This is Your Brain on Drugs" PSA.
- Very Special Episode: Episode 14 has Jason, Michael, and Freddy, trying to get Ghostface to break his drug habit, it doesn't work.
