Lights, Camera, Bite: Vampires In The Horror Genre
From “Dracula” (1931) to “Twilight” (2008), the image of vampires changed on our television screens throughout the decades. In the early stories, vampires were ghoulish monsters with fangs that appeared to look like the undead, but now modern-day vampires are portrayed as normal human beings. They are pale and mysterious to the human eye.
The Haunting Of Hill House
We horror and paranormal enthusiasts have a love affair with ghosts and haunted houses, and no author has quenched our lust for these stories quite like Shirley Jackson. American author, Shirley Jackson, was well known as a master of horror and mystery, over the duration of her writing career, with two decades of short stories, six novels, and two memoirs. This includes “The Haunting of Hill House” (1959), published by Viking Press.
Flowers In The Attic, A Review
The 1979 novel “Flowers in the Attic” is one of those books that people either love or mock, and I, the obnoxious fence-sitter, cannot even begin to pick a side there. I guess, I enjoy it?

After two years, fans of “Dying Light” (2015) finally have an update on Techland’s follow-up to the first-person, open world action, survival game.
Based On A True Story
Emphasizing the “true story” element communicates to the audience that the events on-screen were real, and that they happened to real people. However, a single Google search on the Warrens complicates the supposed historicity of their exploits.
Vampires And Werewolves In Resident Evil Village?
On May 7, 2021, Capcom released the eighth installment of their popular series, “Resident Evil.” The game, titled “Resident Evil Village,” centers around Ethan Winters, the same playable character from “Resident Evil 7: Biohazard” (2017).
Nightcrawler, A Review
In his darkest role since “Donnie Darko,” Jake Gyllenhall goes method for his portrayal of a man who’s dark tendencies, which may stem from an unspecified mental illness, turn even darker as he tries to get a job filming horrific accidents.
