What is it that makes us simultaneously want to watch and to look away as a monster approaches a vulnerable victim? What turns horror stories into page-turners? What is so scary about a can of worms, and why are we so repulsively attracted to the gore and the gross? Using a variety of novels and films from The Shining to Poltergeist, this course offers a philosophical and aesthetic exploration of the lower depths of our existence.
