Horror movies can reveal much more than we realize about psychological disorders—and clinical psychology has a lot to teach us about horror. Our fears—mortality, failure, loneliness—can be just as motivating as our wishes or desires. Horror movie characters uniquely reveal all of these to a wide audience. If explored in an honest and serious manner, our fears have the potential to teach us a great deal about ourselves, our culture, and certainly other people. From psychologist, researcher, and horror film enthusiast Brian A. Sharpless comes Monsters on the Couch, an exploration into the real-life psychological disorders behind famous horror movies. Accounts of clinical syndromes every bit as dramatic as those on the silver screen are juxtaposed with fascinating forays into the science and folklore behind our favorite movie monsters. Horror fans may be obsessed with vampires, werewolves, zombies, and the human replacements from Invasion of the Body Snatchers, but even many medical professions may not know about the corresponding conditions of Renfield's syndrome, clinical lycanthropy, Cotard's syndrome, and the misidentification delusions. Some of these disorders are surprisingly common in the general population. For instance, a number of people experience isolated sleep paralysis, a disorder implicated in ghost and alien abduction beliefs. As these tales unfold, readers not only learn state-of-the-art psychological science but also gain a better understanding of history, folklore, and how Hollywood often—but not always—gets it wrong when tackling these complex topics.

Four years ago, my mother died and left me seeing monsters. For four years, mysterious shadow monsters followed my every move - watching, protecting, never speaking. I thought I was losing my mind - until my eighteenth birthday revealed the truth. Those monsters? They're actually gorgeous hellhounds in human form, created by my father - a Prince of Hell - to keep me safe. Now I'm at Everwood Academy learning to control my newfound powers, but that's not the most complicated part. Try falling for not one, but four smoking hot hellhounds who are completely devoted to me. Jack's natural leadership makes him impossible to resist, Chumley's enthusiasm is infectious, Bug's shy sweetness melts my heart, and Creeper's quiet intensity sets me on fire. As if juggling four supernatural relationships wasn't enough, someone wants me dead. With both demons and angels gunning for me, I'll need all the protection I can get. Good thing my monsters are more than up for the job. Protected by Monsters is a slow burn reverse harem series with fiercely protective monsters who would do anything for the woman who owns their hearts and souls.

Jane Dalby is dying. The cancer has made its home inside her head, slowly sprouting malignant tumors on her brain. Tumors that sit on her optical nerves. Tumors that cause hallucinations of dark, horrible monsters. The doctors told her it’s all in her head, and that these monsters that plague her everyday life don’t actually exist. She is only imagining them—no matter how real they might seem. But when her husband is brutally murdered, and her niece goes missing, Jane finds herself in a kind of hell she couldn’t have imagined. Jane doesn’t have much time to find her niece. Her desperate search will lead her to the very edge of madness, and deep within the dark woods, she will come face-to-face with the monsters living in her head.

Anne Simon is a world-renowned biologist and expert on plant viruses. She has also been scientific advisor to the X-Files since the series began. In this fascinating book she explores the extraordinary realities that lie behind the strange discoveries made in each episode by agents Mulder and Scully, weird and threatening life forms, mutations and alien creatures. Despite the achievements of modern science and technology, she points out, it is estimated that less than 1 per cent of our fellow living creatures have yet been identified. Unknown plants, animals and microbes still inhabit our planet, and new and astonishing discoveries are made every year - like the giant interconnected fungus Amilaria Ostoyae, which spans an area of 2. 5 miles and is thus the largest organism on earth, found recently in the state of Washington. Dr Simon goes on to discuss such hot scientific topics as cloning, genetic engineering, hybrid organisms and genetics, cancer and ageing, cyrogenics, killer viruses and much else - and throughout she refers constantly to the X-Files episodes relevant to her subject, and gives the inside story of how the story-line was developed.

During the 1950s and early 1960s, the American film industry produced a distinct cycle of films situated on the boundary between horror and science fiction. Using the familiar imagery of science fiction--from alien invasions to biological mutation and space travel--the vast majority of these films subscribed to the effects and aesthetics of horror film, anticipating the dystopian turn of many science fiction films to come. Departing from projections of American technological awe and optimism, these films often evinced paranoia, unease, fear, shock, and disgust. Not only did these movies address technophobia and its psychological, social, and cultural corollaries; they also returned persistently to the military as a source of character, setting, and conflict. Commensurate with a state of perpetual mobilization, the US military comes across as an inescapable presence in American life. Regardless of their genre, Steffen Hantke argues that these films have long been understood as allegories of the Cold War. They register anxieties about two major issues of the time: atomic technologies, especially the testing and use of nuclear weapons, as well as communist aggression and/or subversion. Setting out to question, expand, and correct this critical argument, Hantke follows shifts and adjustments prompted by recent scholarly work into the technological, political, and social history of America in the 1950s. Based on this revised historical understanding, science fiction films appear in a new light as they reflect on the troubled memories of World War II, the emergence of the military-industrial complex, the postwar rewriting of the American landscape, and the relative insignificance of catastrophic nuclear war compared to America's involvement in postcolonial conflicts around the globe.
