Although gay directors such as F.W. Murnau (Nosferatu) and James Whale (Frankenstein, The Invisible Man, Bride of Frankenstein), made some of the earliest horror films, for many decades LGBTQIA characters were rarely portrayed in full view. "Coded" content translated homosexual experience into censor-friendly subtext for consumption by general audiences. Gradually, LGBTQIA characters and themes have moved to the foreground as the horror genre has grown along with its audience's tastes and attitudes. Likewise, LGBTQIA writers and directors have increasingly offered their takes on scary movies and today, "queer horror" is a thriving film genre. With more than 900 descriptive entries, this critical filmography is a comprehensive, critical, yet playful examination of the history of LGBTQIA content in horror films. Eight journalistic writers-editors Sean Abley and Tyler Doupé plus Calpernia Addams, Molly Henery, Alan Kelly, Daniel W. Kelly, Brian Kirst and Michael Varrati-explore the intersection of queerness and horror from the silent era to the present and from direct-to-video porn to LGBTQIA indies to blockbuster releases.
