Comedy horror, also known as horror comedy, is a literary and film genre, combining elements of comedy and horror fiction. The comedy horror genre almost always inevitably crosses over with the black comedy genre; and in some respects could be considered a subset of it. Zombie comedy, a sub-genre dealing with zombies, also exists. Examples of the comedy horror genre include the Evil Dead series, the League of Gentlemen, Ghostbusters series, Gremlins series, Mr. Vampire series, and the final two installments of the Child's Play series Bride of Chucky and Seed of Chucky.
