Batman lends himself well to horror stories. Bruce Wayne chose a bat because criminals were a cowardly and superstitious lot; fear is baked into the character's DNA. There have been many Batman horror stories over the years, but one stands above the rest for many Batman fans: Batman: Arkham Asylum: A Serious House On Serious Earth. The book was part of DC's full court press of Batman media during the height of Batmania around the release of the Tim Burton Batman movies.
