Introduction

From supernatural hauntings and slasher thrillers to psychological terror and creature features, horror films often rely on familiar yet effective tropes: the isolated victim, the unstoppable monster and eerie settings. Whether it’s a haunted house, a relentless killer or a descent into madness, these stories tap into our deepest fears and primal instincts. Join us as we uncover how horror filmmakers employ atmosphere, tension, and shocking twists to keep audiences on the edge of their seats

Hosted by Mike Muncer, creator and host of The Evolution of Horror podcast.
