Spanning 640 spine-chilling pages, this volume showcases the most iconic slashers, ghosts, zombies, cannibals, and beyond, tracing the eerie evolution of screen horror from the flickering shadows of the 1920s to the cutting-edge effects of the 21st century.

Each archetype is examined both aesthetically and historically, revealing how horror taps into universal human fears as well as specific cultural anxieties.
In addition, a curated Top 50 Movies section brings readers face-to-face with 50 landmark horror films, ranging from black-and-white classics like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde and Godzilla to modern masterpieces such as Rosemary’s Baby, The Wicker Man, The Shining, and The Blair Witch Project.
