Full event details

Netflix’s Stranger Things has been labelled 'unsuitable for children' since its first season. But why, when so many young fans watch the series and children like Eleven have been opening portals to 'topsy-turvy' worlds since Alice's Adventures in Wonderland? This session opens the Gate further to explore horror’s prolific presence in twenty-first-century children’s literature and culture. Why do so many children love horror? Why do so many adults fear the impact horror might have on children? And why do children feature so prominently in a genre that often excludes them as readers and viewers?
