Falmouth University will host a conference, Folk Horror in the 21st Century, on Thursday September 5 and Friday September 6, 2019. The conference organizers, Ruth Heholt (Falmouth University, UK), Dawn Keetley (Lehigh University, USA), Joanne Parsons (Bath Spa University, UK), and David Devanny (Falmouth University), invite proposals on all aspects of folk horror, in all periods and across all regions, as we put together a slate of panels that will take up the meanings of the folk horror renaissance in the 21st century.

We are very happy to announce that our keynote and plenary speakers are Tanya Krzywinska (Falmouth University), Bernice Murphy (Trinity College, Dublin), and Catherine Spooner (Lancaster University).
