OK.... there is a debate currently in my household....
Is contemporary fantasy... horror .. more relatable to modern people?
Personally when I read or watch something I want to be transported to a different time... a different place... a different world. Are modern people so stiffed in their imagination that they need something contemporary to relate to? Can people no longer be transported to a different place and time for the story to take place? or must they have something contemporary to relate to.
I'm just asking. Comments are welcome.
Do you, when you read a novel or watch a movie, want to be transported to a different world other than the mundane world you live in? Or do you want a story that is set in your own world with just a little fantastical realm or horror influence mixed it? Tell me what you think.
