Sub Genres of a Thriller? - Mystery Thriller
Mystery Thriller includes suspense that is usually built up by atmosphere and environment. The reader should be able to, using their mind, solve the mystery alongside the main character. The main character usually is occupied in tracking down the truth about an event, usually a murder. Mystery Thriller's and Psychological Thriller's are very similar in the way that the movie gives you an opportunity to think and find out about who has done a certain thing. A mystery is a who done it?, where the reader is taken on a journey full of carefully laid clues that leads to an ultimate reveal. A thriller employs a 'ticking clock' or 'time bomb' method where there is an imminent danger explained right up front that must be dealt with and found out by, which makes things more intense. So if you combine both aspects, serial killer stories are very often mystery thrillers because there is a definite ' factor of how can you stop the killer combined with the threat of danger to everybody, and the 'mystery' is for the audience to find out 'who is this person and why is he doing this?'.
