Introduction

Hello and welcome to my blog. If you couldn’t tell, my blog is going to be heavily focused on psychological horror and the many sub-genres within it. What is Psychological Horror? Well, the concept is broad. But usually, this genre is described as being a type of horror that instills a sense of fear, anxiety, or unsettledness in its viewers using its reliance on the darker parts of the human psyche. 

Psychological horror often takes advantage of the viewer's possible emotional state while consuming the content, and makes its unsettling goals more prevalent by expanding off of the distress it(the content) causes. My hope for this blog is to dive into some of the different aspects of some books, movies, and series that are considered good representations of this genre. I would like to have the chance to try and educate more people on the value of the content they consume, while also connecting the strong psychology within horror.
