A captivating look at what draws us to the shocks and thrills of horror, by film critic and broadcaster Bogutskaya.
$28.00
This absolutely fascinating book does a deep dive into the elements of horror media which we are the most scared of (and why they scare us so much) - haunted houses, cannibalism, zombies, with a particular focus on femininity and feminism. Every moment I wasn’t reading this was spent wishing I was. It was insightful, funny, haunting, and compelling
