A friendly desert community where the sun is hot, the moon is beautiful and mysterious lights pass overhead while we all pretend to sleep… Welcome to Night Vale. From floating cats and glowing clouds to evil five – headed dragons. Night Vale is a local radio station with updates from a small desert town featuring […]
Anything Ghost is a podcast where the presenter, Lex Wahl, shares listener submitted personal preternatural experiences (ghost stories). Lex then adds his original background music and effects to add value to the eerieness of the listening experience. Anything Ghost was the first of the personal ghost story audio shows when it hit the podcast scene in January of 2006 and it […]
The roots of the horror genre are tangled around humanity’s fear of death and the abominations that transcend it. Vampires, zombies, and demons all fit this description, but the earliest, and possibly the most widespread in human culture, are the ghosts of the unquiet dead. While many authors turn their imaginations toward new ways to […]
I didn’t release an official ranking for 2016 but if I had, Hammers on Bone would easily be in my top 2 for 2016. If it had been released in any other year it would have been the top book. This book is very, very, very good. It’s a Lovecraftian noir tale about a Private […]
The simple version: What Lies Within is a dark, gory family drama about serial killers. I mean this in the most loving way possible, this was fun to read and dissect. Those are words I never thought I’d write about a book but here we are and boy am I happy about it. What Lies Within is the […]

A lot of time the story placement seems almost random and the book will have no flow. Each story in Certain Dark Things seems as though it were meticulously picked […]
I’ll start by saying that while this isn’t 100% horror, it has enough of the themes that I’ll count it. Being steampunk doesn’t hurt either. And now for the review Clockwork Universe was a very fun read. It’s full of action and John’s writing style suits the genre very well. The characters were well written […]
This book is part of a series where Jackie takes old nursery rhymes and writes horror stories based off of them. If the rest of the stories are even half as good as this one, we’re all in for some good reading. My Soul To Keep follows the story of Sky, who starts at a brand […]
This movie was very, very good. Now that I’ve captured you with an enticing introduction, let me tell you why it was good: The cinematography and the directing is some of the best I’ve ever seen in an indie film. This is an absolutely beautiful film and the performances from leads Adam David and Valentina […]
