Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Something Wicked Has Returned . . . A week has passed since Nate Watson defeated the evil warlock, Malleus Hodge, with the help of the witchfinder’s serpent, a magickal, snake-shaped bracelet once owned by Hodge himself. Unable to remove the ancient bracelet from his arm, Nate struggles to control the serpent’s immense powers. As hellish monsters and once-dead creatures arrive accompanied by impossible displays of magick, it becomes clear that Hodge is back with a plan: to unleash a twenty-first century witch hysteria. Neighbor will be pitted against neighbor as the warlock stokes the flames of fear and paranoia to epic proportions. With the help of his friends and a beautiful, mysterious visitor, Nate searches for a way to defeat Hodge for good—while coming to terms with loss, betrayal, and the fear that the serpent’s dark magicks are beginning to influence his behavior in unexpected ways. What Nate doesn’t know is that a sinister pact drives Hodge, who will stop at nothing to fulfill a dark bargain several centuries in the making.

Download or read book Religious Horror and the Ecogothic written by Mary Going and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-06-10 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Religious Horror and the Ecogothic explores the intersections of Anglophone Christianity and the Ecogothic, a subgenre that explores the ecocritical in Gothic literature, film, and media. Acknowledging the impact of Christian ideologies upon interpretations of human relationships with the environment, the Ecogothic in turn interrogates spiritual identity and humanity’s darker impulses in relation to ecological systems. Through a survey of Ecogothic texts from the eighteenth century to the present day, this book illuminates the ways in which a Christianized understanding of hierarchy, dominion, fear, and sublimity shapes reactions to the environment and conceptions of humanity’s place therein. It interrogates the discourses which inform environmental policy, as well as definitions of the “human” in a rapidly changing world.

Book excerpt: A LOUDER THAN WAR BOOK OF THE YEAR A riveting journey into the psyche of Britain through its golden age of television and film; a cross-genre feast of moving pictures, from classics to occult hidden gems, The Magic Box is the nation's visual self-portrait in technicolour detail. 'The definition of gripping. Truly, a trove of wyrd treasures.' BENJAMIN MYERS 'A lovingly researched history of British TV [that] recalls the brilliant, the bizarre and the unworldly.' GUARDIAN 'A reclamation, not just of a visual 'golden age', but of Britain as a darkly magical place.' THE SPECTATOR 'A feat of argument, description and affection.' FINANCIAL TIMES 'Young unearths the ghosts of TV past - and Britain's dark psyche.' HERALD 'Highly entertaining . . . [A] fabulous treasure trove.' SCOTSMAN 'Young is a phenomonal scholar.' OBSERVER 'Impassioned.' THE CRITIC Growing up in the 1970s, Rob Young's main storyteller was the wooden box with the glass window in the corner of the family living room, otherwise known as the TV set. Before the age of DVDs and Blu-ray discs, YouTube and commercial streaming services, watching television was a vastly different experience. You switched on, you sat back and you watched. There was no pause or fast-forward button. The cross-genre feast of moving pictures produced in Britain between the late 1950s and late 1980s - from Quatermass and Tom Jones to The Wicker Man and Brideshead Revisited, from A Canterbury Tale and The Go-Between to Bagpuss and Children of the Stones, and from John Betjeman's travelogues to ghost stories at Christmas - contributed to a national conversation and collective memory. British-made sci-fi, folk horror, period drama and televisual grand tours played out tensions between the past and the present, dramatised the fractures and injustices in society and acted as a portal for magical and ghostly visions. In The Magic Box, Rob Young takes us on a fascinating journey into this influential golden age of screen and discovers what it reveals about the nature and character of Britain, its uncategorisable people and buried histories - and how its presence can still be felt on screen in the twenty-first century. '[A] forensic dissection . . . this tightly packed treatise takes pains to illustrate how what we view affects how we view ourselves.' TOTAL FILM
