Worst. Halloween. Decorations. Ever. Part II

Welcome back to my second year of “Worst. Halloween. Decorations. Ever.” special!  This year’s cornucopia of crap comes from the people that brought you White Trash and Ghetto Fab America, Wal-Mart, and the stars of discounts for dummies K-Mart, as well as the upper-class with no class Target.   And lastly and leastly, the store that […]

Motley Brew. Renfield’s pick for Halloween and horror themed beers.

It shouldn’t take one very long to notice that even alcohol companies are merging into the dark side with horror themed drinks and containers as well as horror themed people are merging into the alcohol (Marilyn Manson’s “Mansinthe”).  Today you can walk into your friendly robbery-free liquor store and see that Tekillya (sorry, couldn’t resist) […]

State of Union of Horror-Writers.net

One thing that horror has taught me is that…evil never dies. I’m sure by now all of you have heard about the things going on around the crypt about Horror-Writers and what will become of us, and what are we going to do now, and blah, blah, blah. For those who haven’t heard, Horror-Writers has […]

My vote for the most vile villain…and no it’s not me this time!

Recently a few of the Horror-writers (dysfunctional) family and I had a Twitter battle regarding the biggest villain in horror of all time.  We all agreed that we would not use our favorite go-to’s that we at Horror-writers.net  prefer (i.e. Jason, Jigsaw, etc) and I would not use myself as the subject.  (How in the […]

Jefferson Davis Hospital, Hollywood Comes To Life (After Death)

Sometimes the truth is stranger than fiction. This is one such case. This is a story, (or maybe not), of a historical landmark here in my hometown of Houston, TX. I have been fascinated with the place since my teenage years. I’ve spent countless hours on the internet researching it, and even more hours crawling […]

Enough with the goddamn zombies already!

  No, really! Enough with the zombies! I’m really sick of the all the books and movies about crusty, rotten, nonliving creatures of the apocalypse meandering around looking to eat “BRRAAAAIIINNNSSS”. I like the classics like everyone else (Night, Dawn, Day, Return of…)and I respect Romero for everything he has done with our industry. I even […]

Renfield’s Top 10 Scariest Horror Movie Moments

Dear Bloodshot Betties and Felonious Fellows, Since this Halloween AMC, Chiller, and SYFY insist on showing shitty movies like “Leprechaun in the Hood” and “Jack Frost” to celebrate Halloween, I feel it necessary to revamp(ire) things and remind myself why this is my favorite time of year.

“Whose responsibility is it?” Or, Little Johnny’s teacher called today.

Greetings my ghoulie gagballs, As of the tragic current events lately I would like to address a situation that has been brought to my attention since my early adult years. Who should have the right to regulate the films, books, and music we enjoy and to what degree if any? This article is not intended […]
