[IRL] Who's Afraid of Erotic Lit?

Moonlit woods and mirrors, insatiable hungers, hidden voyeurs—these are just a few of the elements shared by genres of horror, folklore, and porn. What gives such tropes power to evoke disgust, lust, and pleasure? Why are we attracted to art and literature that create these sometimes intense experiences? Join critic Chelsea M. Davis, cartoonist Trinidad Escobar, and novelist Kathleen J. Woods for a discussion of blending genres, inhabiting the "monstrous," and expressing queer pleasure through decadent, tangled narrative forms.

Not to mention some chilling, thrilling snacks and drinks!
