Veranstaltungdetails

If there was ever a time, a moment, for examining the archetype of evil, and its manifestations in the world, it is now. Though separated by decades and distinct in style, these horror stories share a deep fascination with the battle between light and darkness—both literal and etaphorical. They explore the timeless struggle between good and evil, testing the boundaries of human morality and resilience. They ask what happens when the supernatural disrupts the ordinary, and how faith—or the loss of it—shapes our ability to survive. Whether you're a long-time horror fan or just beginning to explore the genre, this discussion will offer insights into how darkness, both literal and symbolic, reveals the core of the human experience.
