Do you like #horror #fiction? Check out this #podcast mini-series! In each episode, I read a short story from my collection, then my producer, Josh, interviews me on the #writing process. #31DaysOfHorror share.transistor.fm/s/d102796b
#31DaysOfHalloween 'Strange Harvest' (2025) #FoundFootage #Crime-#Horror presented like a true crime documentary. Two detectives correlate the evidence from a series of ritual murders, leading to a discovery of #CosmicHorror. 7.5 out of 10.
#31DaysOfHalloween #Caturday #Costume Welcome to Halloween week. (Art via Daniel Arthur @Danielarthury.)
#31DaysOfHalloween 'Weapons' (2025). #Horror-#mystery-#comedy w/all-star cast. An #eerie missing child event points to a #supernatural explanation. Style choices and plot inconsistencies subtract from an otherwise well-executed, original concept. 7.5 out of 10.
Stop scrolling and post two characters who bring you happiness.
#31DaysOfHalloween 'Smile 2' (2024) improves upon the #supernatural #curse plot laid out in its 2022 predecessor. Clever #horror-ization of pop-star fame, and an #eerie musical score from Tapia de Veer ('The White Lotus') are highlights. #Scary. 8 out of 10.
#31DaysOfHalloween 'He Never Died' (2015). #Horror-#DarkComedy. Rollins plays an ancient, cannibalistic immortal who works his way through a low-level criminal organization to rescue a loved one. Is it scary? No. Is it entertaining? Yes. 7 out of 10.
#31DaysOfHalloween 'Dead Mail' (2025). A unique, play-like #Psychological #Horror #art #film. A USPS dead mail detective tracks down the origin of a mysterious help note. Slow-paced, though non-linear plot twists keep things interesting. 8 out of 10.
#31DaysOfHalloween 'Re-Animator' (1985), a #horror-#comedy masterpiece, is forty years old this year. I remember literally running to the theater opening weekend to make it by showtime. Changed my mind about what a horror movie could be. 10 out of 10.
#31DaysOfHalloween 'Hostel: Part II' (2007) - The rich buy and sell the middle-class for sadistic sport... until they meet their match. This time, it's #horror, not non-fiction. Brutal. IMO the best of the Hostel bunch. 7.5 out of 10.

#31DaysOfHalloween 'The Call' (2020). Enigmatic #Korean #horror-#mystery about a woman and a killer joined by a mysterious phone... and separated by twenty years. The first half is slow, and I had to watch this twice to understand it. 7.5 out of 10.
#31DaysOfHalloween 'Saw II' (2005) - Gross, yet inventive. This is the one with the pit o' syringes. Also, for a #horror movie with such a grimy aesthetic, the actors are lit rather well. Astounding musical score by Charlie Clouser. 7.5 out of 10.
#31DaysOfHalloween 'The Monkey' (2025). Oz Perkins strikes again, directing, adapting, and playing a small role in this delightful #Horror-#DarkComedy feature about a #cursed monkey toy. Surprisingly gory. 8 out of 10.
#31DaysOfHalloween 'Fréwaka' (2024) #Horror-ized grief is an emotional throughline of this #creepy, well-written and performed #Irish narrative. The story is depressing, so make sure you are in the right mood before pressing "play." 7.5 out of 10.
#31DaysOfHalloween 'The Boogeyman' (2023) starts decently, yet by act two the characters are doing silly things to enable #Supernatural #Horror tropes to play out. The result is pretty far from Stephen King's original short story, which I love. 5.5 out of 10.

#31DaysOfHalloween 'Milk & Serial' (2024) is a #FoundFootage #Horror-#Thriller currently available on #YouTube. A birthday prank takes several turns for the worse. Anyone planning to make a low-budget feature should check this out. 7.5 out of 10.
#31DaysOfHalloween 'Madhouse' (1974) - Fictional #Horror #movie character kills people when the mentally unstable actor who plays him is released from an asylum. #Mystery-#Slasher fans might like this despite the PG-rated kills. 7.5 out of 10.
#31DaysOfHalloween 'Full Brutal' (2018) is a #extreme #horror novel by #splatterpunk writer Kristopher Triana. A pregnant, murderous high-school student descends into madness. Insanely gory. 8 out of 10. You have been warned....
#31DaysOfHalloween 'Cheerleader' (2023) is a single by American #singer-#rapper Ashnikko. Their vision of the evil cheerleader #archetype is cleverly illustrated in this schizophrenic, catchy (NSFW) music video. 9 out of 10. youtu.be/_BkjDZshvK8?si…

#31DaysOfHalloween 'All Cheerleaders Die' (2013). #Supernatural #Horror-#Comedy about a #witch plotting the demise of an irresponsible high-school jock. It was OK. 6.5 out of 10. For more #evil #cheerleader stories, check out the comments below!
#31DaysOfHalloween 'The House that Screamed' (1969). An isolated boarding school in 19th century #France boils over with repressed emotions, mysterious #murders, and cover-ups. Thanks @badchopsuey for turning me on to this #slasher gem! 8.5 out of 10.
#31DaysOfHalloween 'Clown in a Cornfield' (2025). Exactly what it sounds like -- a legendary small-town clown kills teenagers. Great #October vibes. Recommended if you dig #slashers. Nothing too extreme, just bloody, R-rated #Horror fun. 7 out of 10.
