Synopsis

The hearse with the weird odor slowed to a stop before the entrance. The sound of pebbles could be heard bouncing on the ceiling. There were footsteps coming from the corridor, and there seemed to be someone sawing next door. The door knob to the room rattled slightly, and the faucet in the bathroom kept dripping even though it had been screwed shut. There was a rubber ball that rolled on its own underneath the bed. Wet footsteps started to surface one after another on the floor. At 3 am, Chen Ge held a cleaver in his hand as he hid beside the room heater. The call he was trying to make was finally answered. "Landlord, is this what you meant by 'the house can be a little crowded at night'‽"

One common theme is the blurring of the boundaries between the natural and the supernatural. Ireland's rich folklore and ancient landscapes often serve as a backdrop for this. Another theme is the insignificance of humanity in the face of vast and incomprehensible forces. Just as in general cosmic horror, in Irish versions, humans are often left helpless against these otherworldly powers. For example, ancient Celtic deities or spirits that are far more powerful than humans can be a part of this.

Sure. 'The Third Policeman' by Flann O'Brien has certain elements that can be considered in the realm of Irish cosmic horror. It has a strange and dream - like quality where the laws of reality seem to be distorted, much like in cosmic horror where the normal order is disrupted by the incomprehensible forces of the cosmos. There are also some lesser - known Irish indie horror stories, often found in local anthologies, that deal with themes of the sea as a vast, unknowable entity which could be related to cosmic horror as the ocean can represent the infinite and terrifying unknown, much like outer space in traditional cosmic horror.

Cosmic horror stories typically have elements like the vastness of space that makes humans seem minuscule. There are often eldritch abominations, which are grotesque and otherworldly creatures. The idea that there are forces out there that are so powerful and alien that they can't be reasoned with is also common. These elements work together to create a sense of unease and horror in the reader or viewer as they realize how small and powerless we are in the grand scheme of the cosmos.
