Abstract:
This article explores the aesthetics of horror that recent indie games offer to their players. Following a general discussion of how the audiovisual, ludic, and narrative aesthetics of indie games relate to the fiction emotions, gameplay emotions, and artifact emotions that these games in general and horror indie games in particular invite their players to experience, the article offers in-depth analyses of Amnesia: The Dark Descent, Neverending Nightmares, Darkwood, and The Forest. These four case studies allow for an extensive reconstruction of the various ways in which indie horror games ar

Abstract:
Here Goes Nothing is a combination of love, fear, and after-life. In this story, the author has tried to combine fiction and humour elements. The entire story has been told by a dead man called Angus Mooney. The book is the continuation of parts of his other two books, A Fraction of the Whole (2008) and Quicksand (2015). All of his books are written with a purpose, such as the fear of death and the fear of life in his previous books, and the fear of criticism from others in Here Goes Nothing. Thus, this is also known to be a dark comedy that represents the scenario of the afterlife. The book h

Abstract:
The fear of death has long plagued people for its unknown implications and the burden of grief that comes with it; however, it is not something that people often acknowledge. This work intends to highlight that fear-related issues should not be understated as trivial negative emotions and need more awareness. Using the death anxiety and protection motivation theories, I discovered that there are hidden conflicts behind death anxiety that people need to address to minimize their symptoms and eventually undergo a successful coping process. The story follows the struggle of Sasha, who initially r

Abstract:
Androids occupy a position of fascination within US pop culture and science fiction television, yet they rarely acknowledge their own experiences of gender. Reading Wendy the entertainment android from Syfy Channel's Dark Matter (2015–2017) as trans*, this article analyzes the material, cultural, and imagined bodies of the android through an intersectional lens of gender, sex, and race. At times, the article slips between different versions of the transgender android, wading through their cinematic representation, theoretical conceptualization, socio-cultural construction, and material reality

Abstract:
The short stories of Edgar A. Poe<strong> </strong>elevate fear and tension to the highest level while exploring the dark side of humanity. <em>The Oblong Box</em> (1844) is one of Poe&rsquo;s gothic stories. The story is about an unfortunate man who attempts to send his wife&rsquo;s corpse in a pine box to her mother. The text evokes in the reader a sense of ambiguity between life and death as well as a feeling of fear. This fear is a state of uncanny that occurs when things that seem familiar, harmless, and normal become foreign and dangerous in the human consciousness, thus arousing fear. T

Abstract:
Semiotics is the investigation of the nature, type and function of signs in all walks of life. It is the science of interpreting signs and showing how meaning is generated by and through a shared cultural code. Being a verbal corpus of imaginatively works of art, literature with all its genres, i.e. poetry, drama, fiction, the short story, etc. lends itself to semiotics scrutiny. Verbal works of artifact as such can be analyzed in terms of semiotic theory.

Human beings have been expect and anticipate the unknown, including wishes, ambition, and the future. At times, the future is imagined as bright and hopeful. At other times, the future is expected to be gloomy and ominous. Therefore, human beings deal with the future with fear and skepticism. These fears are justified given the circumstances in the present, including human conduct in general, the conditions of wars, and environmental changes.&#x0D; Since literature recalls the past and tackles the issues of the present, it also expects what will happen in the future by visioning what the futur
