The Slasher genre has often got a single killer who is a person not a creature or monster. There choice of weapon is usually a knife or melee weapon this makes there killings more intimate with the victim. Most commonly have a deformed face or a mask on to hide there identity.
The gothic horror usually sticks to a single murderer who is a monster or creature, they do not have a weapon commonly but use a part of there body to do there killings. The character itself is usually unusual and very displeasing to look at. The setting is usually within a dark church or house this is usually where the antagonist lives or lurks.
