Resum
The article presents an analysis of the TV series American Horror Story (season 1) in which the distressing elements of the terror remain assembled across the merge of the sublime and the uncanny before the «unthinkable» and «unrepresentable», coming to many of the reasons that were exposed by the romantic faced with the role of the Nature against the «I» and its plunging-into-the-abyss by the most familiar thing: the house. The ideas of failure of the modern reason and of the constitutive nature of the dark elements through the «I», to which it is possible to get across the dream or the death or in the moments of twilight or dawn, characteristics of the Romanticism remain that way related to the contemporary forms to create a mythology of terror.
