Origins of Horror

Friday October 18, 2019 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm


In this panel, we'll explore folklore from around the world that has contributed to modern-day horror fiction, and delve into how core antagonists emerged from them. How did early spoken form and classical renderings influence modern subgenres and underlying messages?


GEEK: Horror (Ogeechee)

The human mind is fascinated by fear. Monsters, murderers, the supernatural, things that go bump in the night, and all the thrills and chills that go with them. From the silver screen to the printed page, we will explore the antagonists that make us shiver… and uncover why we keep coming back for more. If you like to be scared, you’ll love what we have in store for you!
