Blood-sucking vampires, serial killers, ghosts and ghouls, monsters and freaks--horror provides us with a way of imagining and classifying our world. Through 29 essays, "The Horror Reader" explores the questions of what is evil and what is good; what is monstrous and what is "normal"; what can be seen and what should remain hidden. Covering classic gothic literature and spanning the history of horror in literature and film, it brings together essential writings on this most spectacular and controversial of genres. The range of topics is vast-from Edgar Allan Poe to "Frankenstein" to" The Texas Chainsaw Massacre,"
Contributors include Stephen D. Arata; Philip Brophy; Sue-Ellen Case; Terry Castle; Carol J. Clover; Joan Copjec; Barbara Creed; Teresa A. Goddu; Marie-Helene Huet; Graham Huggan; Leon Hunt; Tania Modleski; Jose Monleon; Franco Moretti; Paul O'Flinn; Fatimah Tobing Rony; Mary Russo; David Sanjek; Mark Seltzer; Elaine Showalter; Vivien Sobchack; Tzvetan Todorov; Gregory A. Waller; Patricia White; Jennifer Wicke; Elizabeth Young; Audrey Yue; and Slavoj Zizek.
