Sleeping With the Lights On: The Unsettling Story of Horror
Jones, Darryl (Professor of English and Dean of the Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences at Trinity College Dublin)
Fear is one of the most primal emotions, and one of the hardest to reason with and dispel. So why do we scare ourselves? Delving into the darkest corners of horror literature, films, and plays, Darryl Jones explores its monsters and its psychological chills, discussing why horror stories disturb us, and how they reflect society's taboos.
