I want to say first that I love almost every book Severed Press has to offer, so it was only natural that I buy “Dead Bait 2”. If you are expecting a thrilling anthology about aquatic mayhem, “Dead Bait 2” may not […]
If I were to choose the scariest movie that I have ever seen, then I would choose “INSIDIOUS”. “INSIDIOUS” successfully avoided so many common pitfalls in the horror movie industry. The haunting started almost immediately, and very quickly grew in horrifying intensity. […]
I finished “The Middle of Nowhere: Horror in Rural America” a few months ago and have been staunchly refusing to review it since then. It took me forever to finish the book because I couldn’t get into reading it. Some of the […]
