Why Should the Devil Have All the Good Horror?

To most, the term “Christian horror” probably seems like an oxymoron. Nevertheless, there are very good arguments to be made that “horror” is an eminently biblical genre and that Christian artists should be at the forefront of reclaiming it. In this work, novelist and freelance writer Mike Duran explores the Judeo-Christian roots of contemporary horror, the religious themes that frame much of the horror art, and how evangelical culture has come to distance itself from such a potentially rich and powerful medium.

Duran looks at Christian artists and authors whose works employ the macabre and grotesque. From surrealist Hieronymus Bosch to Southern Gothicist Flannery O'Connor to the master of horror Stephen King, we can trace a distinctly biblical worldview that frames their visions of terror. Along the way, Duran answers objections while developing an apologetic, not for a new sub-genre, but for a rethinking of the reasons that "Christian horror" has come to be viewed as such an oxymoron.

This book is a must for anyone who’s been questioned about their choice of literature, or art, or media from a Biblical perspective. How could you enjoy xyz (in this case, horror), don’t you know that’s the devil’s doorway into your life? The author lays out an undeniable thesis in which the horror genre is examined with scriptural wisdom and a gentle reminder to not call something unclean before you do your own research. (Spoiler, the genre really can be a problem when not approached from a humble perspective.)

I particularly enjoyed the reminders that much of the Bible isn’t ’Sunday School safe,’ while the Word is infallibly family friendly. If that caught your attention, you owe it to yourself to read this book.

Also, the narrator did an excellent job in pacing and emphasis where needed. He’s an easy guy to listen to for hours on end.

Horror can be Godly
