Well, initially, horror stories often had a basis in superstition and the unknown of the natural world. For example, stories about ghosts were common, which were often related to fear of the afterlife. Then, with the development of society, horror stories started to incorporate elements of psychological fear. Writers like Edgar Allan Poe were masters at this, exploring the dark corners of the human mind. In modern times, horror stories can also be influenced by technology, such as the fear of artificial intelligence going wrong in some horror movies and novels.
Horror stories in different cultures have unique elements that contribute to the overall evolution. For example, in Japanese horror, there is often a focus on the vengeful spirits, which is related to their cultural beliefs about the afterlife and honor. This has influenced global horror by introducing new types of spooky characters. In African cultures, horror stories might be based on local superstitions and ancestral spirits, which can add new dimensions to the concept of horror when shared with the world.
Well, horror fiction has had a diverse journey. It began with traditional tales of monsters and hauntings and then expanded to explore deeper fears and societal anxieties. It also adapted to new technologies and cultural changes over time.

Ghost stories have evolved from simple oral traditions passed down in local communities. In the past, they were often used to explain the unexplained, like strange noises at night. They were basic tales of spooky apparitions. As time passed, with the growth of literature, ghost stories became more elaborate. Writers added complex characters and detailed settings, such as in the works of Edgar Allan Poe. Now, in the modern age, they are also found in movies, video games and TV shows, reaching a much wider audience and taking on new forms like psychological horror, where the fear comes more from the mind than just seeing a ghost.
One of the top stories in evolution could be the discovery of new transitional fossils. These fossils provide crucial evidence for the gradual changes in species over time. For example, the discovery of Archaeopteryx, which has both reptilian and avian features, was a major find that supported the theory of evolution from reptiles to birds.
πI recommend the following novels to you:
"Screaming Game": A world similar to infinite horror. Human nature is complex, full of elements such as ruthlessness, cruelty, and violence.
"War of the Gods": The traditional infinite style combined with the "load" function. Friends who like infinite horror should not miss it.

"The Infinity of the Beginnings of the Demon Buu": A reincarnation world similar to the infinite horror, with strong horror and suspense elements.
"The Void Mage's Fantasy Journey": A derivative Doujinshi novel similar to the evolution of the trump card. It spans multiple worlds and has a new fantasy experience.

One horror story could be about a haunted house. In the story, a family moves into an old mansion. Strange noises start at night, like creaking floorboards and whispering voices. They soon discover that the previous owner was a witch who cursed the place.
One could be about a haunted house where strange noises and apparitions terrify the inhabitants. Another might involve a cursed object that brings misfortune to whoever possesses it. And there could be a story of a vengeful spirit that haunts a particular place due to a past injustice.
Perhaps there's a story about a cursed object. It might be a doll that seems to have a life of its own. In the '49 horror stories', this doll could cause misfortune to those around it. It moves when no one is looking and gives people nightmares just by being in the same room.
