People surprise and disappoint. Happens all the time. In particular, I’m referring to how often a person I know, a person I know to be intelligent and educated, will admit, usually by sharing it on social media, their thickheaded-ness by their believing in something that is so obviously false that your average five-year-old should know…

The Best of Hammer
This ‘chere article from inquisitr ranks the top five best Hammer Horror films of all time. Did Hammer Studios do any films that WEREN’T at least tangentially Horror? Maybe throwing in the word “horror” is redundant. We’ll just say “The Best of Hammer”, then, and leave it at that. But do I agree with this…
Gimme My Money Back! I’m Still Possessed!
It could be the easiest way in the world to rip somebody off–OR–the easiest way in the world to rip somebody off. How exactly would one go about proving such a thing as demonic possession? The Vatican has some strict criteria. I’m not aware of ANY legal criteria, not in the US. Does anybody know…
To Arms, Wolf Brothers (and Sisters)!
Friends, fellow werewolf enthusiasts, pack members, I need your assistance. If you don’t currently follow us over on Twitter (@werewolvescom is our handle; notice there is no “dot”), please do so. If you don’t do Twitter, please create a Twitter account and then follow us. Things over at the social media site are getting ugly.…
Werewolf Guilt?
I’m always glad to come across a new article from MYSTERIOUS UNIVERSE, especially a vampire, zombie, or werewolf-related article. This one in particular, though, I have to take a couple of exceptions with. First off, the writer of the article mentions TWO werewolves that are on the prowl in the Hull region of England, the…
Full Eclipsed Moon, with a Comet!
Sounds like some swanky foreign dish, doesn’t it? Or a concept album by some underground Alternative band you’ve never heard of and never will. (They opened for TOAD THE WET SPROCKET once, though!) Some years ago, the TV weatherman promised a “dazzling” display of shooting stars during a meteor shower. I sat up until the…
Serial Killer Valentines
By the time you all read this, the sugary-sappy manufactured holiday will be past. Most of you guys and gals will have dropped a pretty penny on flowers, candy, and/or presents for your better halves that you’d just as soon have held onto. Tipping my hand, here, readers; I am not a fan of Valentine’s…
Review: THE BYE BYE MAN (The Book)
A couple of weeks or so ago, I posted my review of the new film THE BYE BYE MAN, expressing my disappointment with it. It hardly seems I am alone in my sentiments, as I have not seen even one favorable review of the film from any of the major Horror sites. (I never consult…
Revisiting the (Radio) Classics: THE CURSE OF THE NEANDERTHAL
I have waxed eloquent on previous occasions over my appreciation, discovered only in the last couple’a three years, for the lost artform of radio dramas. Having satellite radio in my car enables me to enjoy a wide variety of these old treats, these pieces of “vintage” entertainment that take me back to a simpler age.…
Psychic Werewolves
You’ve heard the term “psychic vampire” before, but have you ever heard of a psychic werewolf? (Hint: This isn’t a person who claims psychic abilities who transforms into a werewolf on nights of the full moon.) Psychic vampires are entities who may or may not be human, who feed on psychic or spiritual energy as…
