Abstract

This thesis aims to show the presence of features of the horror genre in Mark Z. Danielewski’s postmodern novel House of Leaves. The horror genre addresses the fears of society and allows people to deal with them through a literary or cinematic medium. Many critically acclaimed contemporary pieces of literature also unconsciously tap into the horror genre.
