More horror movies are produced and released each year than any other film genre. While horror enjoys broad popularity, many hardcore fans voraciously consume films from their favorite subgenres while avoiding others entirely. What does this say about the films and their audiences?

This primer and reference guide defines and explores 75 alphabetically listed subgenres of horror film, from Abduction to Witchcraft. Each chapter provides a critical survey of the subgenre, a detailed examination of its characteristic elements and themes, and a discussion of 3-4 exemplary titles as well as other titles of interest.
