Read "What is the Horror Genre?" by Sharon A. Russell

Lines 1–11: What is the phrase in which Russell states what horror stories do not have to include? What reason does she give for beginning in this way? How might the author’s statements relate to the central, or most important, idea in the literary criticism?

Answer: The phrase is "...not all horror deals with monsters."

Explanation:

Russell begins by explaining that, despite the common idea about the horror genre, defining it by its subject, as if it always was a monster such as Dracula, would be a mistake, because not all horror stories have monsters in the traditional sense. This statement relates to the central idea, of how to best define the horror genre.
