An outrageous adventure with the most terrifying villain Brenda's ever faced - her best friend, Effie. Necks are being bitten all over Whitby, and only Brenda knows why. She's preparing for a packed festive break at her B&B, but Effie just hasn't been the same since her suave gentleman friend Alucard reappeared. Meanwhile, Penny joins a book group in Whitby's new mystery bookstore. As she's drawn into the strange works of Edwardian lady novelist Beatrice Mapp, she makes some surprising discoveries that will impact on all the ladies of Whitby. When unexpected help arrives to illuminate the dangers awaiting them, Brenda realises that unless she finds a way to save Effie, the consequences may be eternal.

Post-Millennial Gothic by Catherine Spooner Pdf

Surveying the widespread appropriations of the Gothic in contemporary literature and culture, Post-Millennial Gothic shows contemporary Gothic is often romantic, funny and celebratory. Reading a wide range of popular texts, from Stephenie Meyer's Twilight series through Tim Burton's Gothic film adaptations of Sweeney Todd, Alice in Wonderland and Dark Shadows, to the appearance of Gothic in fashion, advertising and television, Catherine Spooner argues that conventional academic and media accounts of Gothic culture have overlooked this celebratory strain of 'Happy Gothic'. Identifying a shift in subcultural sensibilities following media coverage of the Columbine shootings, Spooner suggests that changing perceptions of Goth subculture have shaped the development of 21st-century Gothic. Reading these contemporary trends back into their sources, Spooner also explores how they serve to highlight previously neglected strands of comedy and romance in earlier Gothic literature.

THE LOST CIVILIZATIONS - 40 Book Collection: New Atlantis, King Solomon's Mines, The People of the Mist, The Mysterious Island, The Man Who Would be King, The Land That Time Forgot… (Illustrated) by Arthur Conan Doyle,Jules Verne,Henry Rider Haggard,Rudyard Kipling,Plato,Edgar Rice Burroughs,H. P. Lovecraft,Edward Bulwer-Lytton,James Hilton,Edgar Allan Poe,Jonathan Swift,Francis Bacon,Abraham Merritt,William Scott-Elliot,James Churchward Pdf

The lost world is a subgenre of the fantasy or science fiction genre that involves the discovery of a new world out of time or place. King Solomon's Mines by H. Rider Haggard is sometimes considered the first lost-world narrative. Haggard's novel shaped the form and influenced later lost-world books, including Kipling's The Man Who Would Be King, Arthur Conan Doyle's The Lost World, Burroughs' The Land That Time Forgot, A. Merritt's The Moon Pool, and H. P. Lovecraft's At the Mountains of Madness. James Hilton's Lost Horizon used the genre as a takeoff for popular philosophy and social comment and it introduced the name Shangri-La, a meme for the idealization of the lost world as a paradise.

Horror Films of the 1970s by John Kenneth Muir Pdf

The seventies were a decade of groundbreaking horror films: The Exorcist, Carrie, and Halloween were three. This detailed filmography covers these and 225 more. Section One provides an introduction and a brief history of the decade. Beginning with 1970 and proceeding chronologically by year of its release in the United States, Section Two offers an entry for each film. Each entry includes several categories of information: Critical Reception (sampling both '70s and later reviews), Cast and Credits, P.O.V., (quoting a person pertinent to that film's production), Synopsis (summarizing the film's story), Commentary (analyzing the film from Muir's perspective), Legacy (noting the rank of especially worthy '70s films in the horror pantheon of decades following). Section Three contains a conclusion and these five appendices: horror film cliches of the 1970s, frequently appearing performers, memorable movie ads, recommended films that illustrate how 1970s horror films continue to impact the industry, and the 15 best genre films of the decade as chosen by Muir.
