McGrath's Corner

A principle of horror centred around the belief that not showing something scary is more effective than showing the horror, due to the theatre of the mind being much more effective than anything visual. Usually utilised in 'Quiet' Horror.

"The scariest horror stories utilise McGrath's Corner when creating scenes of tension."
