Nick Antosca Creator Of ‘Channel Zero’ Talks With Us About The Season 2 Finale And Season 3
With ‘Channel Zero: No-End Houe’ approaching its season finale this week we spoke with creator, showrunner, and writer Nick Antosca about last week’s episode, the finale, and a few other things. Horror Fuel asked, “Is there anything you can tell us about the season finale?” Yes the finale is one of my favorite episodes of TV that I have ever written. I co-wrote it with Angel Varak-Iglar. I think it’s the most emotional and emotionally disturbing episode of the show so far. And I also really love the way that Steven directed it and the way that Isaac shot it. There are a couple of moments in it that I am particularly proud of and I don’t want to spoil. But I am also particularly proud of the performances of Amy Forsyth, Jeff Ward, John Carroll Lynch, Aisha Dee, all of them do great work in this last episode. And what it really comes down to is the relationship between

“Friday The 13th: The Game” Reveals New Costumes For Halloween
Now that Friday The 13th: The Game is actually playable, a new problem arises; it’s getting stale. With only one game mode, and counselors and Jason’s who all play pretty much the same, things get repetitive faster than you can swing a machete. But hey, now you can dress everyone up in cool new costumes! The best part by far is Lachappa’s man titties in the wrestler outfit. Yeah, we’re still waiting for a single player mode (or really, any new modes at all), but at least this is something. There’s plenty of DLC planned for the games future, and if the big ass pumpkin indicates Halloween, that means were only about halfway through. And sure, outfits aren’t the biggest addition, but better things are yet to come.

Eric Erickson Talks ‘Snake Outta Compton’, His Directing Debut, & Being An Angry Viking
Eric “The Angry Viking” Erickson and I had an interesting conversation about his film Truth, becoming a werewolf, and his role in the upcoming spoof film Snake Outta Compton, which is drawing a lot of attention since its trailer was released last week. Horror Fuel: “On Instagram, where we first connected, you go under the title “The Angry Viking”. That’s a unique title. How did that name come to be?” Erickson: “I got that name when I was doing stand-up comedy. My act was a bit… loud. Ronnie Ray, one of my comedian friends, was hosting a show and after I finished my set he commented to the audience, “Now that’s one Angry #$%^$% Viking!” I liked it and kept the name… although I did clean up the language a bit.” Horror Fuel: “You do look a bit like a Viking.” Horror Fuel: “You appeared on Lucha Underground under The Angry Viking. How many episodes were you on it? Erickson:

First Official Trailer Unveiled For Haunted House Film ‘Winchester’ – Inspired By True Events
The official poster and teaser trailer have been unveiled for ‘Winchester’ and teases the darkness of the real-life inspired tale of Sarah Winchester. Winchester, written and directed by Micheal and Peter Spierig, follows the story of firearm heiress Sarah Winchester played by Oscar-winning actress Helen Mirren. Sarah was convinced that she was haunted by the souls killed at the hands of the Winchester Repeating Rifle. “On an isolated stretch of land 50 miles outside of San Francisco sits the most haunted house in the world. Built by Sarah Winchester (Mirren), heiress to the Winchester fortune, it is a house that knows no end. Constructed in an incessant twenty-four hour a day, seven day a week mania for decades, it stands seven stories tall and contains hundreds of rooms.

Top 5 Memorable Monsters In Videogames
With Halloween being the scariest time of the year, there’s no better time to reflect on some of the scariest monsters in videogames. After all, what’s good horror without something tall and murderous to scare the pants off you? The Slender Man (Slender: The Eight Pages) An abnormally skinny figure fitted in a tailored black suit, The Slender Man looks almost human. That is until you see his face, a smooth white dome, completely lacking in features. And even though he has no eyes, victims say they could feel Slender Man staring right through them. Starting off as a series of photo shopped images on the popular website 4chan.org The Slender Man reached peak popularity with the release of the video game “Slender: The Eight Pages.” Tasking the player with exploring a dilapidated camp site in search of the titular documents, “Slender” is made more difficult, and more terrifying, by the presence of the ever more aggressive Slender Man.
