MONSTERS OF OUR OWN IMAGINATIONS
2019
Overview
Beginning with the McMartin pre-school trial in California in 1983, Satanic panic penetrated a range of popular culture products such as music, film and even board games. Having grown out of a cultural anxiety relating to the increased number of children in childcare in the 1970s as a result of women leaving the home to take up careers, anxieties surrounding childcare were ignited in the wake of the McMartin ritual abuse allegations. The horror genre is enjoying something of a golden age in terms of mainstream approval, but has traditionally endured some of the most ferocious moral attacks. Since its Gothic inception in the 18th century right up to the recent Momo challenge, the genre across a range of mediums has been accused of causing harm. [...]children are often drawn to horror because it explores extremely complex issues through the accessible filter of fiction.
