Alien horrors and other invaders. 520 $a While acknowledging the beginnings of horror-related art in legends and folk tales, the focus of the book is on how the genre has presented itself to the world since the creations of Bram Stoker and Mary Shelley first became part of the public consciousness in the 19th century. It's all here: from early engravings via dust jackets, book illustrations, pulp magazines, movie posters, comic books, and paintings to today's artists working entirely in the digital realm. Editor Stephen Jones and his stellar team of contributors have sourced visuals from archives and private collections (including their own) worldwide, ensuring an unprecedented selection that is accessible to those discovering the genre, while also including many images that will be rare and unfamiliar to even the most committed fan. From the shockingly lurid to the hauntingly beautiful including images of vampires, werewolves, zombies, ghosts, demons, serial killers, alien invaders, and more every aspect of the genre is represented in ten themed chapters. 650 0 $a Horror in art. 650 0 $a Horror tales $v Illustrations. 650 7 $a Horror in art. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00960375 650 7 $a Horror tales. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00960387 655 7 $a Illustrated works. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423873 700 1 $a Jones, Stephen, $d 1953- $e editor. 941 $a 2 952 $l ETPD745 $d 20180808032304.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20180802011540.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=71C61262961911E8A89F3E0097128E48 994 $a C0 $b JIDInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
