Book Club 2.0
Details
Dear Brave Souls,
This month, our book club ventures into the shadows with Behind the Horror: True Stories That Inspired Horror Movies by Dr. Lee Mellor — a bone-chilling descent into the real-life nightmares that birthed some of Hollywood’s most terrifying tales.
From demonic possession to unsolved murders, Mellor unearths the sinister truths behind films like The Exorcist, Psycho, and A Nightmare on Elm Street. These aren’t just stories — they’re echoes of actual horrors that once walked among us.
🔮 Discussion Rituals:
- Which real-life tale chilled you to the bone?
- How does truth distort — or deepen — our fear?
- What draws us to stories that mirror our darkest realities?
Whether you're a horror buff or just curious about the dark truths behind the genre, this book promises to provoke thought, stir emotion, and maybe even keep you up at night.
If you are available, we may try and go to dinner together afterwards at the restaurant next door to Aldar Cafe.
