I mean, I feel like Folk Horror already covers many of the attributes of “cottagecore” horror.
Agreed—I’ve read the synopses of those three books and they’re all folk horror, maybe supernatural. ‘Cottagecore’ may be a lifestyle movement, but applying it as a genre of literature sounds like a bit of useless preciousness to me.
It might concievably be a crossover of folk horror and this new “cozy fantasy” trend.
