This collection of new essays takes in a range of topics, focusing on historic works such as Ann Radcliffe''s Gaston de Blondeville (1826) and modern novels including Max Brooks'' World War Z. Other contributions examine weird fiction, Stephen King, Richard Laymon, Indigenous Australian monster mythology and horror in picture books for young children.
