The monster in Netflix’s must-see new movie (for those who *can* see it!) must not be seen, else it infects a person’s mind and drives that person to suicide. Some of the suicides are apparently graphic in terms of their depiction. This has led to people on social media platforms issuing warnings to potential viewers…

After disappointing me last week with their examination of the Lizzie Borden case, wherein they relied overly much on pseudoscience and hooey—they quoted from a theory put forward by a BASEBALL STATISTICIAN(!) that says Lizzie couldn’t have been guilty—with this week’s episode show host Pat Spain leans a little too much on the Science and…

Lucas awoke with a start, scrambling to his feet. Something–ants–crawled over his naked skin, biting and stinging. He slapped at them even as his eyes sought to penetrate the thick darkness that surrounded him. The night sounds, the steam rising from the earth with its pungent aroma of decay, told him that he was in…

The selection of July 4th for the debut of the third season of the smash Netflix series was a genius move. They want it to be all about summer and summer vacation and all, and what better way for STRANGER THINGS fans to celebrate than by binging the new series over the long Independence Day…

I generally avoid talking politics on this and our sister sites (vampires.com and darkness.com). I figure that’s how you all prefer it. I know that I personally always find it distasteful when some celebrity starts spouting off with some political views, even if I hold those same views. No, I’m not saying I consider myself…

In summation of the twelve-issue series, I found it satisfying but not perfectly so. The ending in the final issue felt a little rushed and there were some dangling plot threads left unattended. Even so it was a far better finale than the clipped ending to the aborted third season of the television series. And…

Numerous reports of encounters with real-world werewolf-like creatures have taken place near graveyards. Is there a reason for this or is it just coincidence? The German Military Cemetery in Cannock Chase in Great Britain. “Old Stinker” of Hull and the cemeteries of the Yorkshire Wolds. If we look to Myth, there is Cerberus, standing guard…

Video game company Ubisoft is working, through its Women’s Film and Television Fellowship, on a live action movie based on the game “Werewolves Within.” Two women, Mishna Wolff and Tasha Huo, were the inaugural selections for the Fellowship and were given access to Ubisoft’s properties. Appropriately enough, Mishna Wolff ended up working on the script…

There’s going to be another “blood moon” lunar eclipse this month, and the religious wackjobs and con artists—and note that these two are often one and the same—are back at it, prognosticating on all sorts of occult implications for the event. It’s pure horsehockey. There are going to be something like 85 such lunar eclipses…

I can remember reading about the travails of American families who, after the fall of the Iron Curtain, began to adopt unwanted infants from former Soviet Bloc countries like Romania, where those babies had lain neglected in orphanages. Those families were then left to contend, after those babies grew older, with kids that were, for…
