The haunted house of American fiction is
an iconic union of setting and theme with
an enduring presence in popular culture
that traces its lineage to the early English Gothic
novels. Blurring the boundaries between past and
present, the living and the dead, the haunted
house—synonymous with the dark side of
domesticity—challenges accepted notions of
reality and wields a special power over the reader’s
imagination.
Focusing on the work of H. P. Lovecraft, Richard
Matheson and Stephen King, this critical work
offers a fresh perspective on one of the most
compelling motifs in American fiction. Case
studies demonstrate how these authors have kept
the past alive while highlighting the complexities
of modern society, using their ghostly tales to
celebrate and challenge 20th century American
history and culture. |
