What makes a paranormal romance book trailer work

Readers search by creature and trope ('fae enemies to lovers', 'wolf shifter fated mates'), so name both clearly.

Ideal length: 30–45 seconds for TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels (vertical 9:16).

The paranormal romance hook formula

[Supernatural being] + [human (or rival) they shouldn't want] + [the rule that could destroy them both].
