“Whatever happened to McKamey Manor?” I wondered not too long ago. In one of those serendipitous twists of fate, the Universe answered in an unlikely way. I was flipping through Hulu last week to see what new shows they had for Friday the 13th weekend, and boom. That’s when IContinue Reading
Well, it turns out I didn’t thoroughly research all the horror streaming services out there after all. I missed one. Dark Matter TV. What’s that saying? “Better late than never.” That’s my story and I’m sticking to it. Especially because that saying also applies to “Darktober,” their month-long Halloween programmingContinue Reading
“CREATURE is a Captivating Historical Thriller Streaming only on Netflix October 20th,” the Gofobo email subject line read. #InterestPiqued. The synopsis that accompanied the trailer read: “When tragedy befalls a reckless scientist in Ottoman-era Istanbul, his student uses untested methods to finish his work with devastating consequences.” Oh, wait. IContinue Reading
I was a little bummed, not to mention surprised, there weren’t more horror movies releasing for 2023’s second Friday the 13th. Instead, it seemed like Friday, October 6, was the biggest release day, with offerings like The Exorcist: Believer (in theaters), Pet Sematary: Bloodlines (Paramount+), and Totally Killer (Prime Video).Continue Reading
Could the Hitchhiking Ghosts masks give Scream‘s Ghostface a run for his money? I think so. Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion Holiday may not have thrilled me, but Spirit Halloween’s Hitchhiking Ghosts masks made up for it. If there weren’t copyright issues, or if Disney went a little darker with its scaryContinue Reading
Anyway, it was the word “smart” that did it. I wasn’t expecting to see it paired with the word “notebook.” There are smart everything these days, from phones to refrigerators and my perennial favorite, smart alecks, but a notebook? How do make one of those smart? So, yeah. See whyContinue Reading
Most cemeteries contain at least one mystery, and the Rest Haven Cemetery in Franklin, Tennessee, is no different. It contains the remains of an unknown Civil War soldier whose family and friends likely mourned him but never knew what exactly had happened to him. However, beyond an unknown identity, there’sContinue Reading
You’d think a previous traumatizing Halloween Horror Nights experience would’ve been enough to last me a lifetime. Well, like myself, you’d be wrong. As I’ve admitted before, I’m a bawk, bawk chicken butt when it comes to Halloween-style haunted houses. Venturing to haunted places? No problem. Watching horror movies lateContinue Reading
“I’m—I’m shit scared. I’m terrified,” Kudzanai says in “Believers,” the second episode of Netflix’s four-part docuseries Encounters. That’s how he felt following his sighting. He and his brother Tapfu were among the over 60 students who reported seeing a UFO and mysterious being during break time at the Ariel SchoolContinue Reading
“Winner of Ring contest gets $1 million for proof of extraterrestrials from Ring cam,” the CNET headline read. However, I only saw the first part of the headline, which registered as “Ring alien contest.” And the first “Ring” I thought of was the horror movie The Ring. Which completely confusedContinue Reading
Rotten Tomatoes is getting into the Halloween spirit with curated horror watchlists. But they’re also offering some creepy-cool horror-themed gift cards redeemable at Fandango and Vudu. All of this is well-timed, considering a lot of scary movies are releasing in theaters and/or becoming available to stream. Let’s check it out.Continue Reading

An exact release date hasn’t been announced yet, but the first one, The Strangers: Chapter 1, is set to hit theaters in 2024. But it’s never to early toContinue Reading
