A Haunt of Fears: The Strange History of the British Horror Comics Campaign

The British "horror comics" campaign of the 1950s reveals the inadequacy of some conventional assessments of anti-media panics. In showing a curious gap between the private concerns of the campaigners and their public rhetoric, A Haunt of Fears raises serious questions about the state of British culture during this era.
