There are several types of monsters represented in horror films that reflect different cultural fears. The external monster represents an outsider threat, like vampires invading a community. The man-made monster is exemplified by Frankenstein's creation, tapping fears about unconstrained science. Most modern horrors feature the internal monster, like Norman Bates, that show evil emerging from within normal human beings. This internal monster speaks to contemporary fears about psychology and the potential for human malevolence in a less religious society.History of Horror Genre

The Impact of Private Port Terminal Operations on Community Welfare (A Case S...AJHSSR Journal

ABSTRACT : This study aims to analyze the impact of the operations of Private Port Terminals (TUKS) on
community welfare in Kendari City, particularly across social, economic, environmental, and institutional
dimensions, with a focus on nickel ore sales activities. The research employs a descriptive quantitative method
using a Likert scale questionnaire involving 77 respondents, selected through the Slovin formula at a 90%
confidence level. The findings indicate that TUKS operations have a positive impact on the economic dimension,
such as increasing employment opportunities and regional revenue, as well as on institutional aspects through the
strengthening of governance. However, the social impact tends to be neutral, while the environmental impact
indicates risks of seawater pollution and damage to coastal ecosystems. This study underscores the importance of
strengthening sustainability policies through environmental impact assessments (EIA) and the implementation of
corporate social responsibility (CSR) to maximize economic benefits while minimizing negative impacts on
society and the environment.

ABSTRACT: This study examined the supply of specific foodstuffs to the military in Nigeria during the Second
World War, between 1939 and 1945; analyzing the logistical challenges and socio-economic impacts of this
wartime procurement. Utilizing archival records, contemporary reports, and secondary sources, the research
investigated the types of foodstuffs requisitioned, the methods of acquisition, and the roles of local distributors. It
explored how the demands of the war effort affected agricultural production, distribution networks, and the
availability of essential commodities for the civilian population. Ultimately, this study demonstrated the critical
role Nigeria played in supplying the Allied war effort through its agricultural resources and highlights the lasting
consequences of this wartime mobilization on the region's food systems.
