An anthology of essays devoted to Slavic horror fiction assesses current trends in East/Central European horror media, with focus on the mid-20th century to the present, and in particular the post-Soviet period. -- .
In the Western cultural production that puts individual or collective fear at its center, East/Central Europe has been portrayed as an othered space of horror lawless, frightening zones where anything can happen. Incorporating articles on literature, film, visual arts, video games, music videos, and music festivals, Contemporary Slavic horror across media: Cursed zones is a pioneering anthology of academic essays devoted to Slavic horror fiction. The book focuses on works from the mid-20th century through the present, particularly the post-Soviet period. Assessing current trends in Czech, Polish, Russian, Slovak, Ukrainian, and East/Central European horror media, the book looks at similarities and idiosyncrasies of the genre in its Slavic variant. With this anthology we hope to tame ''the Easterner Other'' and start exorcising ''monstrous'' East/Central Europe.
