THEM season 2 The Scare poster

Making a good horror anthology series like American Horror Stories is hard. Even AHS hasn’t gotten it right with all of its seasons. But the first season of the Amazon Original THEM (a.k.a. THEM: Covenant) hit the mark with high ratings. Would its sophomore season, THEM: The Scare, repeat thatContinue Reading

Pretty Little Liars Summer School key art

In the trailer for Pretty Little Liars: Summer School, the Liars get bad news. Since they were consumed with unmasking A before he killed them in Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin, their grades suffered. They can’t move on to junior year at Millwood High unless they complete summer school. Or,Continue Reading

Expedition from Hell: The Lost Tapes key art

“Is Discovery Channel venturing into the found footage genre?” I wondered when I first heard about Expedition from Hell: The Lost Tapes. “How’s that going to work?” It was the “lost tapes” part that tripped me up. Were there really some lost tapes that someone found that would tell theContinue Reading

Live-action Scooby-Doo Mystery Machine

If you’re all about seeing a live-action Scooby-Doo series on streaming somewhere, you may be in luck. The Hollywood Reporter recently dropped deets about such a project in the works at Netflix. It’s not a done deal yet, but they said it’s close. Apparently, it has “a script-to-series commitment atContinue Reading

The Traitors cover with cast and castle

The castle in The Traitors has seen dozens of murders during the two seasons of both the U.K. and U.S. versions of the show. (Australia, Canada, and New Zealand also have versions, but in different settings, which we’ll briefly explore in a bit.) Luckily none have been real murders, butContinue Reading

Ghost Adventures Skinwalker Invasion

“Is the Ghost Adventures team going to investigate with the Skinwalker Ranch guys?” I wondered when I saw the announcement about the new season of Ghost Adventures. As they did with the “Lake of Death” and “Devil’s Island” episodes ahead of past seasons, they’ll also kick off this all-new seasonContinue Reading

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

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.

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

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

John Carpenter's Suburban Screams key art

I was a little bummed, not to mention surprised, there weren’t more horror movies releasing for 2023’s second Friday the 13th. Instead, it seemed like Friday, October 6, was the biggest release day, with offerings like The Exorcist: Believer (in theaters), Pet Sematary: Bloodlines (Paramount+), and Totally Killer (Prime Video).Continue Reading
