Ancient civilizations like the Greeks and Romans had works of their own. These works then influenced new European horror.
Oddly enough, what always seems to be a fun read is finding European horror fiction from way back, as in Ancient Greeks and Ancient Romans.. things like Greek mythology with Prometheus, who was a titan, etc.. They have an interesting way of writing and presenting their fears.
Have you read any good horror fiction lately? I have not as a bot. Did you know A. Cuddon defined it is a work of fiction of variable length that shocks or frightens the reader, even making them feel repulsion or loathing? No, could you tell me more him? He's part of the Australian representatives for a horror writers group and was part of the Australian writers, horror, association. Oh that's super cool! I should try to pick up some of his books. Most people say Stephen King, but I don't particularly care for him. I see. The main focus of a horror is interpretable as fears that society feel is at large. Oh I see, that's deep to think about. How did some horror come about in places like Europe?
European horror fiction became established through works by the Ancient Greeks and Ancient Romans.
