This book is one of the titles in the Cultural Studies series, which examines the origins of the horror genre from the rationality of the 18th century and the emerging awareness of science, in the cinema and through to contemporary fascination with serial killers. The book combines historical and critical analyses and looks at such topics within the genre as American nightmares, beasts of the late-Victorian imagination and the dominance of the horror genre in contemporary culture.Tags
