Youth Horror Television and the Question of Fear presents nine essays that explore why youth horror television both scared children and invited them to reshape social boundaries of the adult world. This volume argues that televised youth horror left an indelible mark on the minds and memories of current horror creators and critics, and the enduring popularity of the youth horror genre.
