After 9/11, the world felt the "shock and awe" of the War on
Terror. But that war also exploded inside novels, films, comics,
and gaming. Danel Olson investigates why the paranormal, ghostly,
and conspiratorial entered such media between 2002-2022, and how
this Gothic presence connects to the most recent theories on PTSD.
Set in New York/Gotham, Afghanistan, Iraq, and CIA black sites, the
traumatic and weird works interrogated here ask how killing affects
the killers. The protagonists probed are artillery, infantry, and
armored-cavalry soldiers; military intelligence; the Air Force;
counter-terrorism officers of the NYPD, NCIS, FBI, and CIA; and
even the ultimate crime-fighting vigilante, Batman.
