“Scary Tales. Brett M. Wilson discusses his new book all about “Are You Afraid of the Dark!?”

There are few minor inconveniences more grating than realizing you missed the chance to back a Kickstarter campaign you would’ve gladly thrown money at. By a few years, no less.  Brett Wilson knows that all too well, having successfully funded his book “Scary Tales: The Ultimate (Unofficial) Guide to Are You Afraid of the Dark?” by February 2021. Those lucky backers received a limited run of an excellent hardcover book all about the series, featuring new, original drawings of each episode.  It’s an unofficial project, but based on how many interviews he did with cast and crew members, it’s the ultimate guide for fans of the show.

Felissa Rose talks to Macabre Daily at Necromantic Brew Co.'s Dismember to Remember!

Long Island, New York is recognized for many things. We’re the home of Billy Joel, third-wave emo, and the people who actually claimed to believe George Santos.  One of our numerous exports is the infamous slasher film “Sleepaway Camp.” While the film shot in upstate New York, the cast and crew primarily hailed from Long Island, as did their accents, including the star of the film, Felissa Rose.  Interviewing Rose on Long Island is almost like interviewing Elvis in Graceland. If there was ever a place to talk to the scream queen, it would be at Farmingdale, New York’s Necromantic Brew Co. Earlier this month, the brewery hosted an event featuring Rose and the hilarious Dave Sheridan as they hung out, signed autographs, played drinking games, and provided commentary for “Victor Crowley,” “Scary Movie,” and for its 40th anniversary, “Sleepaway Camp.”  I highly recommend “Sleepaway Camp” with live commentary from Felissa Rose, just for the record.

This year marks the 40th anniversary of “Psycho 2,” one of the most underrated sequels of all time.  Written by Tom Holland and directed by Richard Franklin, the very idea of a sequel to Hitchcock’s classic was a major gamble, but it paid off in a major way.  Due to the film’s success, Holland went on to write and direct seminal horror classics like “Child’s Play” and “Fright Night,” as well as continue collaborating with Franklin on “Cloak & Dagger.”  His latest venture is  “Oh Mother, What Have You Done?: The Making of Psycho 2,” which chronicles Holland, Franklin, and editor Andrew London as they set out to make a film Hitch would be proud of.

The Adams Family Returns To Macabre Daily To Talk All About "Where the Devil Roams!"

It’s already November, but it’s safe to say this hasn’t been the most fruitful year for horror.  Compared to the onslaught of great horror films last year, 2023 is struggling to keep up.  Thankfully, the latest film from Adams Family is here to grace our top 10 lists alongside “When Evil Lurks” and “Thanksgiving” (oh, you know you loved it).  Hot off the heels of last year’s “Hellbender,” “Where the Devil Roams” is about a family of murderous carnies who encounter a demonic force during The Great Depression.
