“Fairytale and Gothic Horror is useful to readers who want to discuss horror as a manifestation of psychology, time, place, and circumstances, as well as those interested in horror-film trends. It would make an excellent outline for a course in gothic cinema and a good supplemental read for a course in cinematic adaptations of fairy tales.” (Cory Thomas Hutcheson, Marvels & Tales: Journal of Fairy-Tale Studies, Vol. 33 (1), 2019)
