Recs if you like Hauntology: Ghosts of Futures Past...

Hauntology is the philosophical concept, as quoted by Mark Fisher from his article taking a deeper look into Derrida's philosophical work, that "the present is always haunted by the ghosts of the past and the unfulfilled promises of the future." From generational trauma to dark histories to dying Old World pagan traditions, these elements persist throughout the wide genre of folk horror. These books explore deeply into the hauntings of the past and the instability of the future.

Nonfiction books about the mechanics, psychology, and other aspects of the horror genre.

Recommendations are always welcome!

This list is dedicated for all the book recommended and mentioned by Louisa Munch - critical theorist. I follow her Instagram account almost from the very first videos. Louisa inspired me to organise better my political reading and she always gives some nice recommendations to inform yourself about the political landscape of today. I just wanted to have all the books in one place, plus the ones which I found on my own reading journey.
