Horror and the Holy: Wisdom-Teachings of the Monster Tale
Kirk Schneider
Through a study of a number of classic horror stories, this work argues that spiritual understanding of life can be reached through horror; that it steers a path between fanaticism and despair - the path of wonderment; and that revulsion and disgust are the obverse of excitement and freedom.
