Exploring Cosmic Horror in Science Fiction

Cosmic Horror is a concept that has exploded in popularity in recent times. But of course, this is a type of horror that great authors have been utilizing for many decades. More than anyone else, HP Lovecraft is associated with this concept. He is in fact, as many of you already know, considered to be the father of cosmic horror, which is often referred to as Lovecraftian horror. Many authors since Lovecraft's death have written stories within his universe continuing the tradition of cosmic horror. Others like Stephen King, have adapted these concepts in their own works. In this video we will be looking at cosmic horror from one specific angle, we Will discuss the usage of cosmic horror in science-fiction specifically.

I would argue that many of Lovecraft’s works are actually science fiction, to begin with, as any of them have ideas traditionally associated with the science fiction Genre. Beings from outer space, strange technology, Machines capable of flying through space.
