Video Game Review Double Feature! ‘Layers Of Fear’ & ‘>Observer_’ For Xbox One

Recently I wrote an article about the bundling of the two horror narrative games, “Layers of Fear” and “>Observer_”. The games’ developer Bloober Team gave me access to play both of their groundbreaking games for one epic review! Since this is a double review, I’m splitting the games up to avoid confusion and the last couple of paragraphs will be my final thoughts on both games. “Layers of Fear” is about a painter in the midst of the mental breakdown and his obsession over his latest art piece that he hopes will put him back on top. After you start looking at your latest work, that’s when the terror starts. As you explore the house, hallucinations begin to take over of paint drenched hallways, malformed specters, and artifacts that reflect your troubled past as you try to explore for answers only have your senses toyed with by the other side. There are times you have to do some problem solving

Trailer For “The Haunting Of Hill House” Teases It May Be Netflix’s Scariest Series Yet

Netflix‘s upcoming series adaptation of Shirley Jackson’s”The Haunting of Hill House” has unveiled its first trailer, leaving us with the impression that it may be the scariest thing Netflix has ever delivered. The ten-episode series was created and directed by Mike Flanagan who brought us Hush, Oculus, and Gerald’s Game and who is directing the upcoming adaptation of Stephen King’s Doctor Sleep. “The Haunting of Hill House” stars Timothy Hutton, Carla Gugino, Victoria Pedretti, McKenna Grace, Michael Huisman, Henry Thomas, and Lulu Wilson. The series “explores a group of siblings who, as children, grew up in what would go on to become the most famous haunted house in the country. Now adults, and forced back together in the face of tragedy, the family must finally confront the ghosts of their past, some of which still lurk in their minds while others may actually be stalking the shadows of Hill House.” “The Haunting of Hill House” premieres on Netflix October 12,

This October ‘Cucuy: The Boogeyman’ Is Coming To SyFy

Cucuy: The Boogeyman is coming to SyFy this October! Hybrid Entertainment’s original movie is a timely twist on the indelible legend of a story young children are told by their mothers about a Latin American boogeyman known as the Cucuy who would come at night to snatch misbehaving children and take them back to his cave to be eaten. Directed by Peter Sullivan (who helmed Stan Lee’s The Sandman, SyFy’s runaway hit last October), this highly anticipated seasonal gem is set in fictional Glimmer Peak, the kind of small town where nothing ever happens. As the Cucuy, the Mexican Boogeyman, is known for preying on misbehaving children, we chose to revolve the story around a troubled teen currently on house arrest, says director Sullivan. We shot in an abandoned neighborhood on the site of a former state hospital in Pomona, CA. The facility, no longer in use, provided an additional uneasy quality to the film’s aesthetic,” he emphasized. “The holiday
