The poster for The Woman in the Yard is quite eye-catching, don’t you think? Not to mention creepy. I instantly wanted to know why this woman draped in black from head to toe was sitting in a yard. (Well, to me, it looks more like a field, but whatever.) Anyway,Continue Reading
Once the California wildfires are contained, I’m sure we’ll hear even more harrowing and heartbreaking stories of loss and survival. I was surprised that several outlets have already compiled lists of landmarks damaged or destroyed in the fires. One in particular sent a shiver down my spine. NBC News reported thatContinue Reading
While updating the Paracons and Horror Fests page recently, I came across an exciting new event to add: Horror Reader Weekend.

But one of the festival’s coolest films was an under-the-radar gem, Strange Harvest: Occult Murder in the Inland Empire. Horror fans areContinue Reading
Highbrow cinephiles often snub horror movies as unworthy of their viewing time. Even the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS), which awards the industry’s highest honor, the Oscars, is often accused of bias against horror movies. I get it. Most horror movies equate to nothing more than justContinue Reading
The first I heard of Apartment 7A, a prequel to Rosemary’s Baby, was on September 26, the day before it started streaming on Paramount+. It’s haunted me ever since. Why? Well, first of all, how did that miss my radar? Not that I’m a huge fan of Rosemary’s Baby, butContinue Reading
Which movies pop first to mind when you think of horror movies about Halloween haunted attractions? The Houses October Built? Hell House LLC? Haunt? Those all popped into my mind when I learned of Haunt Season, a forthcoming slasher movie from Epic Pictures’ specialty horror label, DREAD. I agree withContinue Reading
Visiting the Stanley is a bucket list travel destination for many macabre-minded restless spirits. For good reason.
