Posies horror film poster

Have you ever watched a horror short? I’m pretty sure (but not positive) the first one I ever saw was Larry, which I sought out after watching Come Play, a creature feature inspired by Larry. Curiously, the second short horror film I’ve now watched, Posies, also involved monsters. Larry wasContinue Reading

Distortions Monster World Entrance

When I learned about an interactive creature feature museum that was opening in Denver earlier this year, I made note of it on my wanderlist. I never imagined we’d get to jaunt inside Distortions Monster World so soon though. Because we have so very little family left living these days,Continue Reading

Sasquatch on Hulu poster

Sasquatch on Hulu ventures into territory where paranormal and true crime rarely cross paths. In fact, has anyone ever investigated Bigfoot’s part in an unsolved mystery before? In this case, he was blamed for not just one murder, but three. It used to be rare when true crime and theContinue Reading

The Banishing poster

The Banishing started streaming on Shudder on April 15. When I first saw the trailer and wrote about it, I kept using the word “creepy” to describe it. “Basically, it looks creepy AF!” “It’s got disembodied voices in the night, creepy figures, and even creepier dolls. Oh, and some kindContinue Reading

Skeletons watching TV with To stream or not to stream caption

At the end of last year, I learned about Discovery’s new streamer, discovery+. What intrigued me most was learning its programming would consist of a Paranormal & Unexplained hub, and that one of the specials exclusive to the streamer would be the Ghost Adventures: Cecil Hotel investigation. I’ve always been insanelyContinue Reading

Vince Vaugh and Kathryn Newton in Freaky

I’ve been dying to see the horror-comedy Freaky ever since I saw the trailer for it back in the Fall. It hit theaters on Friday, November 13, 2020. I was hoping it would also release to VOD at the same time, but it didn’t. However, three weeks later it has.Continue Reading

Emma D'Arcy, Nick Frost and Samson Kayo star in Truth Seekers

It was thanks to Comic-Con@Home that I first learned Shaun of the Dead co-stars Simon Pegg and Nick Frost had once again teamed up to collaborate on a new project, Truth Seekers. At first, we didn’t know much about the at-that-time forthcoming Amazon Original series beyond the storyline, trailer, andContinue Reading

Randonautica logo

Randonauting is becoming quite the craze, isn’t it? Maybe not as big as Pokémon Go (yet), but it’s a similar interactive experience that gets you up and out of your house. If you’re not yet familiar with this new form of exploring or are on the fence about it, maybeContinue Reading

Cliff Simon gets a blessing during the Rougarou episode

One of the beasts Cliff Simon tracks on his new Travel Channel show, Into the Unknown, is the Rougarou, a fearsome werewolf-like beast that feeds on human flesh. I have an affinity for “garous” of any kind because my very first novel, Beneath the Morvan Moon, involved loup garous (werewolves)Continue Reading

I Still See You movie poster

I Still See You is based on the young adult supernatural mystery novel Break My Heart 1000 Times by Daniel Waters. IMDB adds to the genres somewhat by categorizing I Still See You the movie as a fantasy, horror, sci-fi, thriller. But even at its root, the movie is aContinue Reading

You Should Have Left poster

There are three haunted house movies I’ve been anticipating this summer. You Should Have Left was one of them and the first to release. Last Friday when it hit Amazon’s Prime Video Cinema, I paid the $19.99 to stream it. Was it worth it? If you haven’t seen it yetContinue Reading
