SINISTER: Chills in the Attic ... and All Over the House

Good Morning, My Little Pumpkin Heads!

SIX DAYS UNTIL THE HALLOWEENPALOOZA II GIVEAWAY BEGINS!

With that announcement dispensed with, today is a recommendation for something I want to see, but haven't. It's called SINISTER and it's from the same producer that brought us PARANORMAL ACTIVITY, a flick I did like!

That said, how can you not love a crime detective novelist moving into a house and having to solve a real life mystery in order to keep his family alive? And when daddy says, "PACK UP AND LEAVE!", you best do what he says! Here's the official trailer to tickle your fear bone!

 

And after you're done checking it out, please join HALLOWEENPALOOZA II! We're waiting for you ...

Stephen King's 11/22/63 Being Turned into Hulu miniseries

Don't know if y'all heard the announcement, but things are looking up in the horror department! The Mah-Ster's, Stephen King, great novel 11/22/63 is being turned into a nine-hour mini-series for Hulu! That's right! Nine hours where we can lose ourselves in some mighty good entertainment!!!

FILM PICK FOR TODAY
 
So here's a nice creepy film that's sure to curl your blood -- hopefully!!! Annabelle is all about a sweet, little-whittle cursed doll! You know the kind ... the ones that try to kill you and your loved ones in your sleep? So annoying to have around and yet so much fun to watch!!!



And the thing is that Annabelle was REAL! Yup! This doll is still out there, locked up behind some glass so she doesn't get loose again! And I can see you all trying to adopt her just to make things more interesting, but don't! Get the little dolls that grab knives and move without batteries instead! Here's an article on the "lovely" *cough cough* Annabelle:

Aw, doesn't she look sweet -- NOT!!!! And does that say do NOT touch or do NOT open before Christmas? Do hope she'll be given to someone deserving!



 

Got Freakylinks?

Today's pick is one of my favorite series. I cried when they took this one off. It was called Freakylinks and ran the fine edge between comedy and real terror -- not an easy thing to do. Love the underlying plot that ran throughout all the investigations into the unknown! Hope you enjoy! Watching this takes me back to some good moments spent watching TV!


If you head on over to our official FB event page, we've got more links to some good, blast-from-the-past horror. Trilogy of Terror (1975) featuring the princess of awesome Karen Black in four different roles, Twice Told Tales (1963) with Mr. Magnificent Vincent Price, The Norliss Tapes (1973) a supergood chiller staring Mr. Hunky Roy Thinnes and more!

So click on the pick and start your Halloween off right!

THE 31 PARTICIPATING AUTHORS IN HALLOWEENPALOOZA 2014:

Hey All You Blood Fiends!

It's Announce the Authors Day! It's time to let you know the line-up of brilliantly insane writers that will be coming up in the month of October in our HALLOWEENPALOOZA II: The Step of the Cat extravaganza! And in case you don't have the official Facebook Event link, here it is:

https://www.facebook.com/events/281085735416192/

I'll put this list against anyone's, and if you're not excited, you freakin' aren't into horror! I arranged the names in alphabetical order, and in case you weren't listening, I said that "I" arranged the names in alphabetical order. This means that I wouldn't be checking for accuracy cause you'll surely be disappointed ... I'm just saying.

I've also included Author pages & FB pages. This means you can check out what these reprobates ... I mean puppet masters ... no, I meant stellar writers have been up to and you could even try to guess which of their titles is coming your way! There's another reason that I included them, but that has to do with winning the Grand Prize and I'm not revealin' anymore! And don't be trying to get it out of me because I'm in the midst of carving a jack-o'-lantern and not in the best mood. Just a friendly warning ... :)

Gods and Galaxies: When We Were Young and the Shadows Were Deep

Aaron Smith and I teamed up to write another blog. The impetus was Aaron approaching me a few days ago and proposing the subject of childhood fantasies influencing a later career path. I was intrigued with the idea and posted my thoughts! Hope you enjoy!  

Gods and Galaxies: When We Were Young and the Shadows Were Deep: For the past few weeks, I've been writing a lot of horror, including two short stories which are now finished, and the beginning of a lo...

BETTER THAN PERFECT 

h

Twenty-three-year-old Karlie is in the type of rut some people never escape from. With few friends, no boyfriend, and no plans to graduate from college any time in the immediate future, Karlie is as stuck in her ways as the elderly neighbor she spends all her time with. When her world is invaded by two surly twins bound for criminal court, a too-good-to-be-true love interest, and a cute cop who keeps showing up at the most inopportune moments, Karlie can either fight against the changes in her life, or embrace them.

AUTHOR BIO

Tricia Drammeh is a wife, a mother of four children, and an author. She lives in New Hampshire with her family. When she isn't writing, she can be found devouring books, chasing cats, and consuming vast amounts of coffee.
