HOW TO BE A DARK TOURIST: ANALYSIS OF THE TOURIST BEHAVIOR THROUGH A DOCUMENTARY SERIES.

Over the past few decades, dark tourism has become increasingly popular. The level of participation of the dark tourist within a dark site underlies the variety of experiences that can be produced, depending on the type of audience engagement. This study attempts to design the discourse of a performance-based typology of dark tourism, built on the representations of tourists' participation within the Netflix documentary series Dark Tourist. As screen tourism can influence behavior patterns, a typology of spectator, spect-actor, and actor roles is presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
