The excerpt presented allows readers to approach a “forbidden door".
Explanation:
In "Danse Macabre", Stephen King describes how society influences the horror genre. Be it in books, comics, films, etc. He explores the history of the genre and how real life situations are the consequence of that history.
In this case, King is pointing us to a "forbidden door".
