Ghost Adventures House Calls

When Ghost Adventures: House Calls premiered in 2022, many people wondered why Zak Bagans wasn’t on-site for the investigations. It seemed to be a combination of reasons, including experimenting with a different form of investigating, perhaps to try and assuage his fear of flying. But with the new season ofContinue Reading

Death and Other Details

In recent years, Hulu’s showcased a knack for making fun mystery series, haven’t they? We’re talking limited series like Nine Perfect Strangers and The Clearing to recurring series like The Hardy Boys and Only Murders in the Building. It’s unclear if one of their newest releases, Death and Other Details, willContinue Reading

Simona Tabasco, Beatrice Granno, Theo James The White Lotus

I really thought The White Lotus would be a one-and-done sort of series after the first one. (Or what’s more commonly called a “limited series.”) But then they went and found a way to make a second season, which was as entertaining (if not more so) as the first. InContinue Reading

American Nightmare

Thank you, 2024. So far just in January, you’ve given us some great true crime docuseries, including Natalia Speaks and now American Nightmare. All I knew about the case covered in American Nightmare prior to watching was how Netflix described it: After a home invasion and abduction, a young couple’sContinue Reading

Abigail poster

At first blush, Abigail, a new horror movie hitting theaters on April 19, doesn’t sound like a vampire movie. But as soon as you watch the trailer, you see it is. Here’s the synopsis from Universal: After a group of would-be criminals kidnap the 12-year-old ballerina daughter of a powerfulContinue Reading

Kali Reis, Jodie Foster True Detective Night Country

After watching the trailer for True Detective: Night Country, I wondered a couple of things. The first was whether 30 Days of Night was based on a true story. (Minus the vampires, of course.) Because like 30 Days of Night, which was set in Barrow, Alaska, (or Utqiagvik as it’sContinue Reading

Natalia Grace Barnett Mans in Natalia Speaks

The wait finally ended. Natalia Speaks, the much-anticipated follow-up docuseries to ID’s 2023 bombshell docuseries, The Curious Case of Natalia Grace, premiered at the start of this year. (Originally, ID said it’d be released in late summer of 2023.) One key player, Natalia herself, wasn’t among those interviewed in theContinue Reading

Come see how the vampires do it Dark Shadows Miss American Vampire Contest ad

A vampire beauty pageant? By all accounts, that’s what the post of an old black-and-white photo of a man crowning a gothic-looking dark-haired woman portrayed. Back when I was still on what was known as Twitter, someone I followed posted it. He’s since deleted his account, or I’d share itContinue Reading

The Devil on Trial Netflix poster

The first words we hear from David Glatzel in Netflix’s The Devil on Trial documentary is him introducing himself. Then he explains, “When I was 11, I was possessed by the devil.” There was another documentary about the case, The Devil Made Me Do It Shock Docs, which premiered onContinue Reading

Monster Inside McKamey Manor Hulu Documentary screenshot

“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

Dark Matter TV Darktober 2023 keyart

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 Netflix poster

“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
