Abstract
Casey highlights the Folk Horror in the Twenty-First Century conference at Falmouth University. The conference was a two-day multidisciplinary exploration and interconnected discussion of this new and vibrant facet of Horror Studies. The issues of normalcy and Otherness, the re-examination and re-evaluation of national identity, and humanity's relationship with the environment, were common threads throughout the two-day conference. The call for papers had an abundant and enthusiastic response from international scholars and creative practitioners, and was divided into parallel panels packed with diverse content.
