Horror

Horror is a genre of literature, film, and other forms of art that aims to evoke feelings of fear, dread, and shock in its audience. It often incorporates supernatural elements, although it can also draw from real-life fears and anxieties. The narrative typically revolves around suspense, the unknown, and the uncanny, often featuring themes such as death, madness, and the grotesque. Horror seeks to explore humanity’s deepest fears, pushing boundaries of what makes people uncomfortable, and can provoke a range of emotional responses from terror to catharsis. The genre encompasses various sub-genres, including psychological horror, supernatural horror, and slasher films, each with its own distinct style and appeal while maintaining the core intent of inducing fear.
