Stay dead! : an honors thesis (HONRS 499)

Abstract

Things that go bump in the night have always captivated culture. Horror has always been a large part of human society between keeping children in line so that the boogeyman doesn't get them and putting a name to someone's deepest darkest fears. This thesis is an attempt to reintroduce horror and suspense to American television. I have written a script that would fit an hour long timeslot and a companion paper to explain my thought process throughout the piece.
