Midnight Mass

When I heard that Mike Flannigan had a new show coming to Netflix called Midnight Mass I was super excited! After The Haunting of Hill House and The Haunting of Bly Manor, I couldn’t wait. He really knows how to turn out a show…

Horrorstör

When I saw Horrorstör I instantly wanted to read it. My first thought was ”Haunted Ikea?…yes please”. Think about being stuck there overnight. This entire story takes place overnight – but it’s not as fun as you would think…

The Manananggal

A Manananggal is a kind of vampire. It’s part of a group of Filipino creatures called Aswang, which are shape-shifting vampires. Just like a vampire, a Manananggal has teeth that turn into fangs…

My Favorite Australian

Artist, musician, madman, recreational psychopath”. This is how my friend Michael describes himself. But he forgot to add “really sweet guy”. When we spun the Scary Matter globe and landed in Australia, I immediately thought of him. Who better to get ideas from than a native Aussie?

Letta Me Out!

Why do I look for this shit?  Creepy dolls are one thing, but this bad boy is going to haunt my dreams! Creepy dolls are everywhere you look. As far as I’m concerned, marionettes and ventriloquist dummies are the worst. Now I want to introduce you to Letta. A haunted doll on another level with a face to match.

Lake Mungo

Lake Mungo was an interesting movie. But I’ll be honest – I had a hard time thinking about writing this.  I couldn’t decide how I wanted to classify this movie. It’s a horror/thriller/mystery/ghost story disguised as a documentary.
