Journal: American Horror

Analyze one of the primary texts this week utilizing Robin Wood's theory of sympathy in horror (See the
contextual reading "Normality is Threatened y the Monster: Robin Wood, Romero, and Zombies"). Does the
text function within Wood's theory? If so, how does it function? If not, what does this say about the text? Use
specific examples to support your thesis.
The primary text is "Supernatural Horror in Literature", "The Tomb", "Laurie", and The Night of the Living Dead .
