“I was outside digging a grave,” quips Lil’ Punkin at the start of our call. He’s running a few minutes late, perhaps a little out of breath, but slides into the conversation. Lil’ Punkin (Evan Kidd Bogart, who’s written hits for Britney Spears and Beyonce) joins Norman Crates (Peter Wade, producer with such credits as Jennifer Lopez and Kylie Minogue), and DeepKutz (Amanda Warner, who’s written/produced for Carly Rae Jepsen and Charli XCX) as we talk all things spooky and macabre.  The trio – known together as LVCRFT (a reference...

I found my way into the Halloween universe through an old VHS tape collecting dust on my father’s bookcase. He’d recorded Halloween II when it once played on HBO (back when the now-streaming giant was part of basic cable), and the crackle of static was part of its charm. I couldn’t tell you when I first saw Michael Myers slashing up Haddonfield Memorial Hospital, but I can guarantee where it was. Our living room carpet was a light tan, flecked with bits of beige, and our humongous wooden TV set,...

There was a time when David Fincher was attached to direct a sequel to the zombie epic World War Z, you may recall, but we learned back in 2019 that it was no longer happening. So what happened? And what would Fincher’s take on the material have been like? Chatting with GQ UK this week, Fincher opens up about the unmade sequel. “Well, it was a little like The Last of Us,” Fincher explains. “I’m glad that we didn’t do what we were doing, because The Last of Us has...

The legend of Trick ‘r Treat has only grown and grown in the years since its original release in 2007, with Michael Dougherty’s seasonal anthology becoming something of a holiday horror classic. Sam is of course at the center of the property as a true Halloween icon, with various toys, costumes and decorations filling up stores like Spirit Halloween every October. But while the world of Trick ‘r Treat has been expanded upon with various comics, we’ve still never gotten the sequel we’ve been waiting over 15 years for. It’s...

Fans of Robert Eggers’ The Lighthouse (and those who enjoyed the Hidden Fields’ Mundaun) will have to check out Morteshka’s One-Eyed Likho. Based on a dark Slavic fairy tale and set in 19th-century Russia, the first-person horror adventure also echoes the stylings of Eggers’ folk horror film. The game is inspired by the eponymous Slavic fairy tale “The One-eyed Likho”, which is an embodiment of evil fate and misfortune in Slavic mythology. A creature with one eye, the creature is often depicted as an old, skinny woman in black. The...

Mike Flanagan (Gerald’s Game, Doctor Sleep) is headed back into the world of Stephen King with The Life of Chuck, and Flanagan has announced the full cast today. Chiwetel Ejiofor (Rob Peace), Karen Gillan (Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3), Jacob Tremblay (The Toxic Avenger), Tom Hiddleston (Crimson Peak) and Mark Hamill (Star Wars) had already been announced for the upcoming Stephen King adaptation, and a thread from Flanagan on Twitter this afternoon reveals that Matthew Lillard (Five Nights at Freddy’s) and Heather Langenkamp (A Nightmare on Elm Street) will also star. The full cast also features fresh faces and...

Writer/Director Stephen Cognetti may have finally closed the door on the hellish Abaddon Hotel in the previous installment of the cult horror franchise Hell House LLC, but the saga isn’t over. The fourth entry, Hell House LLC Origins: The Carmichael Manor, introduces a new setting entirely to set the stage for the next chapter. Cognetti cleverly expands the mythology while returning to the atmospheric foreboding and scares that made the original film such a cult favorite in the first place. While The Carmichael Manor feels like a refreshing return to form, it’s also clear...
