Horror

Horror is a genre of literature, film, and other forms of storytelling that is intended to evoke fear, dread, or terror in its audience. It often involves supernatural elements, psychological themes, and the exploration of the darker aspects of human nature. Horror can include monsters, ghosts, and other unsettling creatures, but it can also derive its tension and fear from more realistic sources, such as human violence or psychological trauma. The primary aim of horror is to provoke an emotional response, often through suspense, surprise, and the exploration of taboo or frightening subjects. It serves as both entertainment and a means to explore complex themes related to mortality, fear of the unknown, and the boundaries of morality.
