This volume is a study of human entanglements with Nature as seen
through the mode of haunting. As an interruption of the present by
the past, haunting can express contemporary anxieties concerning
our involvement in the transformation of natural environments and
their ecosystems, and our complicity in their collapse. It can also
express a much-needed sense of continuity and relationality. The
complexity of the question-who and what gets to be called human
with respect to the nonhuman-is reflected in these collected
chapters, which, in their analysis of cinematic and literary
representations of sentient Nature within the traditional gothic
trope of haunting, bring together history, race, postcolonialism,
and feminism with ecocriticism and media studies. Given the growing
demand for narratives expressing our troubled relationship with
Nature, it is imperative to analyze this contested ground. "Chapter
