怪奇故仔[歐 24]係一個籠統嘅分類,泛指一啲俾人覺得「怪」嘅推想型故仔作品,好多時會具有 eldritch 嘅特性,結合奇幻同恐怖,同時啲恐怖怪獸又非傳統,會係一啲作者自己創作出嚟嘅怪獸,而唔係狼人或者吸血鬼呢啲家傳互曉嘅傳說生物;呢啲故仔好多時會講及啲角色精神失常,主題上會講人對宇宙依然缺乏完整嘅理解(可以睇返宇宙恐怖)同埋呢種無知令人幾咁無助。例如 H. P. 洛夫卡拉夫特嘅作品喺啱啱出嗰陣,就廣泛噉俾人話佢係怪奇故仔[29][30]。
瘋癲:指一個人精神同行為失常,常見嘅特徵有亂咁大嗌、見到幻覺、甚至失去理智暴力攻擊身邊嘅人;瘋癲係另一種恐怖怪獸對主角構成威脅嘅方式-人除咗怕死,亦會怕失去自己嘅理智同埋因為失去理智而傷害自己身邊嘅人,而喺好多恐怖故仔入面,怪獸會有超自然力量,能夠令人進入瘋癲狀態,又或者係怪獸嘅存在搞到主角懷疑自己係咪癲咗[83][84],例如係心理恐怖常見嘅「頭先主角見到嗰隻恐怖怪獸,到底真係存在定係只係主角嘅幻覺?」;另一方面,宇宙恐怖零舍興用瘋癲呢條橋,例如 H. P. 洛夫卡拉夫特作嘅故仔就成日講到括吐露嘅心靈感應能力搞到同佢有接觸嘅人精神失常[85]。

↑英文原文:"Horror story, a story in which the focus is on creating a feeling of fear. Such tales are of ancient origin and form a substantial part of the body of folk literature. They can feature supernatural elements such as ghosts, witches, or vampires, or they can address more realistic psychological fears."
