So, if there’s one thing modern horror fans know for certain, it’s that if Maika Monroe is starring in a horror film, we are in for an absolute, skin-crawling masterpiece. Fresh off Longlegs, she returns to the genre in Victorian Psycho. The 19th-century-set film has an R-rating from the MPAA for “strong bloody violence and brief sexual material.” Dark Secrets in the Manor Adapted directly from the acclaimed novel by author Virginia Feito herself, the film casts Monroe as Winifred, an eccentric governess. She arrives at a remote, gloomy gothic estate to care for a wealthy family’s children. Naturally, it doesn’t take long for the manor’s staff and residents to notice that something is deeply, terribly wrong. Beneath Winifred’s delicate, polite exterior lies a dark and bloody secret. She isn’t just a quiet teacher, though. She is a ruthless, cold-blooded 19th-century serial killer. A Masterclass Genre Ensemble Directed by Zachary Wigon (Sanctuary) and produced by Longlegs producer Dan Kagan, the period nightmare boasts an absolute powerhouse cast alongside Monroe. That includes Thomasin McKenzie (Last Night

Today marks an unforgettable milestone for both HorrorFuel.com and me. In a groundbreaking first for our site, I had the unique privilege of sitting down for a conversation with professional psychic medium Angel Morgan. Having never interviewed a psychic medium before, I wasn’t sure what to expect. However, the experience turned out to be a mind-bending thrill. Angel specializes in intuitive readings for both humans and animals. This made the session especially exciting given my own bustling household of two dogs, four cats, and a flourishing number of fish. An Uncanny and Jaw-Dropping Encounter Before diving into the video, a little context makes this session all the more astounding. A few months ago, my personal Facebook account was completely deleted (long story). This forced me to start a brand-new page from scratch. As a result, the intimate details Angel brought to light during our reading don’t exist anywhere online. And we had never spoken before our interview. While I have
