Waking the dead, stalking the living, roaming the night... hungry for blood, Monsters and Demons explores the truth behind the legends and analyzes that most deep-rooted of human fears—"fear of the unknown"—a fear that can be traced back to the first syllable of recorded time. Monsters and Demons is a gruesome history of our worst nightmares, from the soul-scorching heat of Satan's eternal hell-fire to lurching, relentless, hungry-for-brains zombies crawling from the grave. The full-color illustrations in this hardcover edition make it the perfect addition to any library, and an excellent gift for those interested in paranomal subjects. This book is a complete compendium of terrifying mythological beasts—many are very much alive, and some say, they can still be witnessed today. A beautiful hardcover edition,

Monsters, Demons and Psychopaths
Author: Fernando Espi Forcen
Publisher: CRC Press
ISBN: 131535392X
Category : Medical
Languages : en
Pages : 363
Book Description
Descriptions of monsters, vampires, demonic possessions, and psychopaths in horror films have been inspired by psychiatric knowledge about mental illness, leading to several stereotyped models of horror that have prevailed through decades. Some scholars have proposed that horror films can be a teaching tool for psychopathology, but for the most part the genre has been underutilized as a learning tool. This book explores the idea of relating horror films to psychiatric ideas as a way of engaging people in learning.
