Stories of tragic hero's have held our interest of the centuries for many reasons. Some of these reasons are, some of our hero's go MIA [missing in action] and we have no clue what happend, they saved others lives in return of their own, or the hero's weren't even trying to help. An example of this is [the last one] on August 6th, 1945, an atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, Japan. This bomb caused devastating radiation that still remains in Hiroshima, and it can still cause cancers and or birth defects. There is a story [A very true story] that says, "The morning the bomb was dropped, someone was standing right outside a bank on the steps. Nobody knows age, gender, nothing about this person. But the were immediately cremated becuae of the bomb, which protected the stone steps. This staircase is held in a museum in Japan to remind us of the past and our heros."

Answer:
The two types of horror stories described in lines 51-63 are:
- Stories that deals with parallel world.
- Stories that seems supernatural but have natural explanations.
Russell's purpose for describing the two types of stories is to support her claim of 'what horror genre is to her'?
Explanation:
'What is Horror Genre?' is a literary criticism by Sharon A. Russell. In her literary criticism Sharon describes the way how she analyze a horror genre.
Sharon was the first one to analyze Stephen King's work, in this study, she aids readers how to evaluate and analyze horror genre, as she did.
In lines 51-63, Russell identifies two types of horror stories.
First are those stories that deal with parallel world. In such stories, readers tend to believe the world as it is, without any question. To support this claim, Russell gives an example of children's fiction 'The Wizard of Oz' by L. Frank Baum. She asserts that the world represented in the Oz is accepted by the readers just as it is without any question. This is the first type of horror stories or genre.
The second one are those stories that seems to be supernatural but have natural explanations. To elaborate this type of story, Russell exemplifies by stating that in such stories objects take the role of supernatural.
The purpose of Russell to describe these two stories is to support her main idea of the text. As she is trying to exemplify 'What is horror genre?' to her, she is elaborating her points using supportive examples.
