Jekyll and Hyde‚ Frankenstein‚ and serial killers are all monsters that have a special connection to everyday society. Jekyll and Hyde was a story about a person’s life who got overtaken

Different writers use different techniques to create a sense of atmosphere and mystery in their stories. I have chosen two ghost stories‚ ’The Monkey’s Paw’ written by W W Jacobs and ’Who Goes Down This Dark Road?’ written by Joan Aiken. I am going to use these two stories to compare the techniques used by writers from different times. Using these two stories I am going to describe how the openings takes place‚ the characters‚ story structure‚ historical contexts and the settings used to describe

This can be deduced from the main setting which involves a yew tree in a graveyard‚ outside a church which is extremely common in the UK. Most of the story is set around Coner O’ Malley’s (main character) house and school‚ the hospital‚ his grandma’s house and of course‚ the yew tree. The story is basically about Conor O’Malley’s mum slowly dying of cancer. As a result‚ Conor is having nightmares

Cheesy special effects? Check! Gore? Check! Kane Hodder? Check! Mutated men wearing Bigfoot costumes? Check! Bodacious Babes? Double D Check!

It’s riddled with groan-inducing moments‚ but I gotta admit‚ I had a fun time with it. It very well could be that Heather Rae Young is smoking hot (the other woman in the movie aren’t bad on the eyes either) and seeing her dance
