Research: History of horror - 1900 - 1925

In this period of time was the real start of where horror films started developing properly. this is when directors started created monsters and putting more detail into them. during this time the films had not properly been done to its full effect as the films tended to be very short films.

In these years is when horror films truly started to form as this is where they started forming the psychopaths and killers, for example in 1910 is where the horror stage started as a classic was formed Frankienstein. Even though it is only 12:42 minute long film i think this is where the bases of where films came from as it was one of the first horror films which had a monster in it where people could physically see the monster.the film was made by edison studies and written by J.Searle Dawley.
