Tonight, I’m interviewing Dr. Mathias Clasen. Mathias, among other things, is an associate professor at Aarhus University, teaches at the School of Communication and Culture, is the director of Recreational Fear Lab, and is the associate editor of Evolutionary Studies in Imaginative Culture. Literary Darwinism, Gothic, Horror, Science Fiction, Fantasy, Apocalyptic and Post-apocalyptic Texts, and Cognitive and Evolutionary Theory are only a few research areas he specialises in. Tonight, he is talking to me about a very interesting research project on the pandemic and horror films, but he also explains what attracts us to the genre.
