Last week I received some info about a movie that’s currently in the post-production phase: Scopia. It looks rather interesting. At least, it caught my eye because it deals with something else I’m interested in: past lives and past life…
In January 2011 I wrote about a then-unreleased movie called Midnight Son that had come to my attention. I had lamented about the vampire genre being like vampires and refusing to die. However, judging by the trailer, this movie showed…
If you are a fan of The Walking Dead and caught any of the commercials during the mid-season finale, you might’ve seen ads for a couple of the movies discussed below. They caught my eye. I decided to include them…
Among the movies shown during Syfy’s 31 Days of Halloween was one of my favorite Stephen King creations ever: The Mist . I recorded it because I wasn’t able to watch during one of it’s showings. A lot of people, my…
Last week I spotted a banner with the word “Hitchcock” and under that in smaller letters “Coming Soon” on an article titled “Halloween Tours That Give You the Creeps.” I’m not usually one to click ads, but I dared to…
I’ve seen some buzz the past few days about Bigfoot: The Lost Coast Tapes. Today I saw a link on Dread Central’s Facebook page with an exclusive clip to the movie. The movie poster caught my eye. Specifically, the tagline…
I was quite intrigued by the Skellie Man of Fisherman’s Wharf. We see a lot of street performers when we travel. I thought this was a super innovative costume. Also, I liked the macabre-ness of it. I also liked that…
It’s my pleasure to present you with “Laughing Sal,” a Haunt Jaunts original Movie Monday production. It’s been a while since I’ve made a movie. I have lots of footage from past jaunts in my Movies to Be Made queue.…
At the beginning of last year, I wrote about a new vampire movie trying to be released called Midnight Son. One of the producers contacted me recently to let me know it had finally been released and where people could…
I got an email with some information about a trailer for a movie called Pleasantview State. I don’t think the movie has actually been made yet, though. I think they put this trailer together to try and sell the concept…
At the start of this year, I listed horror movies coming out in 2012 for the first quarter of the year. Then, as usual, I fell off the wagon. I didn’t follow up for the second quarter. Now we’re almost…
This weekend I had the chance to watch Vanishing on 7th Street starring Hayden Christensen, Thandie Newton, John Leguizamo, and Jacob Latimore. I had never heard of it until it popped up as a suggestion in my Blockbuster queue associated…
A few weeks back, either Bio or the History Channel (I forget which now) reran Haunted History: Caribbean. I DVRed it because I was curious if they would mention any haunts on Nassau, one of the ports of call on the…

A couple of weeks back when we went to see The Hunger Games, we saw a preview for Battleship. I’d seen the movie posters before that. They’d referenced, “Based on the Hasbro game.” Or something to that effect. Well, when…
I asked Annie of FootTracker if she’d be interested in doing a guest blog. I noticed a pattern in some of her comments on my posts. After reading her post, “Proper” Way to Enter a Hotel Room, my suspicions were…
If you’ve never cruised before, one of the things you’ll discover waiting for you each night in your room are towel animals. Your stateroom steward takes any towels you’ve used during the day to create them. Sometimes we don’t always…
I saw an ad on Facebook that said something to the effect “Like haunted house movies?” Of course that caught my eye. I clicked through and discovered the page for 7 Below. The next thing to catch my eye was…
Okay, so Playback stunk, but here’s two other movies that look good and which I’m looking forward to. ParaNorman I loved Coraline. The makers of it have made this one. It’s more for kids, but that’s okay. My inner child…
I made the grave error of renting Playback last week as a “see it before it’s in theaters” movie from On Demand. I think it hit select theaters this past weekend. I’ll be surprised if it lasts until next weekend.…
I decided to share this press release I also received in regards to Chicago Fear Fest. Mainly because ‘Holliston’ sounds like quite a combo and I LOVED the poster. —- “HOLLISTON” film makers Adam Green & Joe Lynch to appear…
Have you made a horror movie? If yes, Chicago Fear Fest is looking for folks like you? The following is copied from a press release I received earlier this year. — CHICAGO’s newest indie horror film fest announces a call…
First there was “Snakes on a Plane.” Then came Zombies on a Plane. (Okay, to be fair, it was actually called “Flight of the Living Dead: Outbreak on a Plane.” Still, the gist was zombies on a plane.) The next…
Thanks to social media, this weekend I noticed many of my friends saying they’d either been to, or were preparing to go see, The Woman in Black. I had it in my mind that it didn’t come out until March…
I love, Love, LOVE when I fly and have a fun flight crew. It’s why I used to love Southwest. (Still do.) They always did (still do) something funny to lighten up the trip. But in the past few years,…
With the release of The Devil Inside this past weekend, which didn’t get high marks from critics but which was the number one movie at the box office, I thought it’d be fun to check out other horror movies for…

Back in September of 2010 we visited Quebec City on our 10-day Canada/New England cruise. This was a Bucket List destination for me. It was even more powerful visiting it when we did because we were celebrating some huge milestones…
Saturday, I snookered my husband into jaunting down to the Rippavilla Plantation in Columbia, Tennessee. Earlier this year, I learned of Rippavilla’s Ghosts and Grits events. Then I saw a video about the plantation on Tennessee Crossroads. (Included below.) I…
I had been wanting to see The Collector for a while, but, as with most things, I got around to it in my own slow, sweet time. It ended up being worth the wait. (It just plain sucks to be looking forward…
Yes, I’m writing about the indie horror film Ghost from the Machine again. Yes, I did just hold a contest giving away a couple of DVDs, but today I read some exciting news I thought was shareworthy. Plus, it’s Movie Monday,…
It’s amazing I still prefer traveling by car over most other travel methods given the amount of scary movies about road trips gone wrong that I’ve seen. Even crazier, it happens to be one of my favorite sub genres of horror…
