A Transnational and Transmedia Companion to the Post-Millennial Gothic is a comprehensive resource that explores the key areas and themes of the post-millennial Gothic, as well as developments in the field and revisions of the Gothic tradition. It constitutes the first thematic compendium to this area with a transmedia (literature, film, and television) and transnational approach. The book covers a plurality of texts, from novels such as Stephenie Meyer's Twilight (2005), Helen Oyeyemi's White Is for Witching (2009), Justin Cronin's The Passage (2010), and M.R. Carey's The Girl with All the Gifts (2014), to films such as Kairo (2001), Juan of the Dead (2012), and The Darkside (2013), to series such as Dante's Cove (2005-2007), Hemlock Grove (2013-2015), Penny Dreadful (2014-2016), Black Mirror (2011), and even the Slenderman mythos. This resource in contemporary Gothic literature, film, and television takes a thematic approach, providing insights into the many forms the Gothic has taken in the twenty-first century. The 20 newly commissioned chapters cover emerging and expanding research areas, such as digital technologies, queer identity, the New Weird, and postfeminism. They also discuss contemporary Gothic monsters, including zombies, vampires, and werewolves, and highlight Ethnogothic forms such as Asian and Black Diasporic Gothic.
