    Horror film is a film genre that seeks to elicit a negative emotional reaction from viewers by playing

    on their fears. Inspired by literature from authors like Edgar Allan Poe, Bram Stoker, and Mary
    Shelley, horror films have existed for more than a century. The macabre and the supernatural are
    frequent themes. Horror may also overlap with the fantasy, supernatural fiction and thriller genres.[1]

    Horror films often deal with viewers' nightmares, fears, revulsions and terror of the unknown. Plots
    within the horror genre often involve the intrusion of an evil force, event, or personage into the
    everyday world. Prevalent elements
    include ghosts, extraterrestrials, vampires, werewolves, demons, satanism, gore, torture, vicious
    animals, evil witches, monsters, zombies, cannibals, psychopaths, and serial killers.[2]
