Pardon the brief note. Just wanted to let everyone know Skellie and I will be taking a break from June 19-July 3, 2017 for vacation. That’s why we’ve also been remiss in publishing many posts. If you’ve followed us for any length of time, you know we neglect the blogContinue Reading
You know all those creepy clown sightings from last year? Next week Congress will be introducing new legislation to help combat the epidemic. Congressman T. F. Hokum from Austin proposed the bill, which reads in part: By making it mandatory that every city in the U.S. has a creepy clown,Continue Reading
Did you hear about the students at Pranktown Elementary in Chicanery, Tennessee who created a zombie cat for their science fair project? Students in Ms. April’s fourth grade class love all things zombies. So much so that they set out to create one of their very own. It all startedContinue Reading

We’re excited to introduce you to our newest contributing writer: Kelsey Morgan. Here’s a little bit about Kelsey in her own words: I’m a big fan of everything supernatural/scary/unsettling, and I could write movie reviews, TV show reviews (Ghost Adventures is a joke but honestly, it’s also my jam), asContinue Reading
We decided to add something new to our Calendar of Odd Dates: birthdays and deathiversaries. Whose birthdays and deathiversaries did we add? Great question! We’re talking heavyweights who have created some beloved classic horror movies (both producers, directors and writers), as well as beloved horror book authors. But it’s notContinue Reading
Just a quick note to let those who have been faithfully participating in our Caption This contests know that we’re taking a hiatus from them for the rest of 2016. We may resume them again in 2017 OR we may introduce some kind of fun new monthly challenge. You neverContinue Reading
Just a quick post to let whoever might care know that we’re back on Instagram. We were briefly on Instagram a long time ago when it was first launched. We deleted our account for some reason. (I think something to do with some of the Terms of Use wording?) SomeContinue Reading
We’re almost done with our renovations around here. Almost. One more big addition is in the works, but let’s recap all we’ve done so far: Part 1 started with adding our Writers Wanted section.
