Capital W on the first word.
Yes, that's MUCH better! A true thesis statement!!
Your start seems to be good so far! You have a clear title, topic announcement, and introduction that grabs the reader's attention. Your thesis statement also clearly states the 4 main horror genres.
In your body paragraph, you have successfully introduced the first genre - Monsters. You have provided a characteristic and an example to support it.
To continue your classification and division essay, you would need to follow a similar structure for the remaining genres (Killers, Paranormal, and Psychological horror). In each body paragraph, introduce the characteristic that distinguishes the genre and provide examples to support it.
Make sure to use clear transition words or phrases to connect your paragraphs and guide the reader through your classification.
It would also be helpful to include a conclusion paragraph that summarizes your main points and restates your thesis statement.
Remember, this is just a start, and your essay will be more complete once you add more information and examples to support each genre. Good luck with your writing!
