This collection investigates the evolution of comics and horror by analysing a range of approaches and traditions. International contributors explore how multiple aspects of comics (forms, cultures, histories) have contributed to the depiction and development of horror across many subgenres (folk horror, ecohorror, gothic romance and more); their chapters also show how horror has informed the development of comics across multiple periods, places and genres, from seventeenth-century broadsheets to newspaper strips, weeklies and contemporary graphic novels, spanning Brazil, Germany, Italy, Japan, UK and USA. By considering well-known horror comics alongside understudied ones, this book re-examines and re-energises established concepts, such as the abject, the Other and closure, applying them to diverse texts, contexts, authors and audiences, and demonstrating the potential of comics and horror to encourage innovations of form and content in each other.

Journey to the beginnings of the bloody days of the Haitian Revolution, with a classic tale of revenge and reclamation, reimagined with a horror twist, in The Curse of Monte Cristo.

France, 1788. Edmond Dantès, a Haitian of African descent and Parisian citizen has been sentenced to a life of hell at Château d’If for treason against the Ancien Régime. Once a man of faith, Edmond believes he’s been abandoned by God, and the only thing that keeps him going is his deep hatred of those who he believes have framed him. Faria, an older prisoner who becomes a mentor to Edmond, confesses, “I am not flesh of this realm. Your lust for revenge drew me here.” Together, they escape the prison and return to Saint Domingue, where the smell of rebellion is thick in the air. Edmond, once an enslaved man himself, thought he had escaped the colonized land and his past life for good, only to return as the wealthy and mysterious Count of Monte Cristo. In pursuit of his enemies – including Mercedes, once his fiancée – he finds his careful rage growing only more reckless and ravenous. Haydee, a young revolutionist, tries to use his fury for good, while Faria, drunk off the misery Edmond has caused, hungers for the fresh taste of innocent blood. As Edmond’s enemies begin to catch on to the count’s true identity, and the fight for liberation from the French colonists swells to a pop, Edmond must reckon with the deal he’s made with Faria. Is it any more sinister – or any different – than the pact he’s made with his own inner demons?

Andrew Morgan Smith’s original soundtrack score for the meta-slasher comedy horror You Might be the Killer

You Might Be The Killer is a 2018 horror-comedy film directed by Brett Simmons (The Monkey’s Paw, Husk) and co-written by Thomas P. Vitale (Pandora). It stars Fran Kranz (The Cabin in the Woods) and Alyson Hannigan (Buffy the Vampire Slayer)

A camp counselor suffering from blackouts finds himself surrounded by murder victims. He turns to his horror movie enthusiast friend for advice, and to contend with the idea he may be the killer…

Incorporating orchestral elements and eerie tongue drums, the score seeks to produce a distinct, menacing sound, embodying the killer’s chaotic and unsettling nature. But equally, the score employees pizzicato strings and occasional silences to balance the comedic beats without veering into slapstick territory. This release also includes the single “You Might Be The Killer” by the band HARLØ.

Treasured Films is excited to present the score, re-mastered for the first time on vinyl!

From the celebrated creators behind Starman and The Flash comes this new supernatural graphic novel about slasher monsters, mad scientists, and cult movie-inspired horror.

How do you kill a monster? One scared little girl named ‘Patra had better learn quickly…or else!

A fun, new take on 1970s slasher movie villains, with a unique heroine who has to defeat that horror before it’s too late.

A small mid-western town is terrorized by a masked maniac named Jeremy Jones. A family is slaughtered. And a young girl named ‘Patra awakens in a nearby forest, with no memory of who she is or how she got there. All she knows is that same killer wants her dead and that whenever she’s in danger a strange mask and dagger appear on her face and hand, as if to protect her. How? Why? That all part of the mystery.

The road ‘Patra must walk is a strange one, full of twists and secrets and ghostly encounters with her dead sister who guides her on a dangerous mission to avenge her family and defeat Jeremy Jones forever. But how can ‘Patra win this battle with evil when nothing is quite what it seems with unexpected twists and turns, and nothing is quite as it seems… even ‘Patra herself!

Join young ‘Patra as she begins her quest to stop the terror here in this first arc, with future arcs featuring other killers to follow, each inspired by a different movie maniac. And all this while Patra tries to learn the truth about herself too, as well as the evil genius who is secretly orchestrating everywhere.
