Stephen King’s ‘Suffer The Little Children’ Being Adapted For Feature Film
Stephen Kind adaptions are everywhere these days, not that I’m complaining. On the heels of IT’s mind-blowing success, news has come that we will be seeing another film based on his works. Variety has reported that Sean Carter (Keep Watching) is currently writing a script for the adaptation of King’s short story “Suffer the Little Children”. Carter will also be directing the feature. Nicolas Chartier, Craig Flores, and Sriram Das have signed on to produce. “Suffer the Little Children”, first published back in 1972 in Cavalier Magazine then in “Nightmare in Dreamscapes”, centers on a first-grade school teacher who notices that there is something strange about the children in her class, that there is a texture underneath their skin and a conspiratorial way they play together. There has also been a series of mysterious deaths in the town.

Jury Finds Slender Man Attacker Not Guilty Due To Mental Illness
Back in 2014, two 12-year-old Milwaukee girls committed an unthinkable crime that rocked the nation. The girls stabbed their friend Payton Geyser 19 times after luring her into woods. The victim somehow found the strength to drag herself onto a bicycle path where a passing bicyclist found her. Luckily, Geyser survived the ordeal. The reason the girls gave for committing the heinous act, they did it to win favor with the character Slender Man, a figure who was born in a Creepypasta story by Eric Knudsen. After 3 years one of the girls, Anissa Weier, has finally had her day in court where she plead guilty to attempted second-degree intentional homicide. The verdict came down that Weier will avoid prison. Instead, she will be committed to a mental hospital where she will wait out her 3-year sentence. Both girls have been diagnosed with Shared Delusional Disorder. Shared Psychotic Disorder or folie à deux definition: A rare delusional disorder shared by

New ‘Jigsaw’ Posters Paint The Killer as a God Like Figure
It’s been seven years since the last Saw film, and over a decade since the last good one. So yeah, it’s not too surprising that excitement for the newest film in the series, Jigsaw, is reaching a fever pitch. And while we still have to wait a month to see that actual film, Lionsgate has given the gift of some badass new posters. (The Rest) He is everywhere. He is everything. He is everyone. Damn, that’s some scary ass shit. 2010 was a long time ago, where smart phones were in their infancy, and services like “The Cloud” hadn’t yet reached their full potential. Imagine a Jigsaw capable of killing you through your phone, or hacking any of your myriad of gadgets too explode off your face. It’s an interesting idea, and I think the God like role Jigsaw is taking in these posters is at least teasing that; we’ve already seen in the trailer that Jigsaw has started trapping

Every year, more and more people claim that their illnesses are caused by demonic possession.” From the Press Release: Father Cataldo is a veteran, one of the most sought-after exorcists in Sicily. Every Tuesday, many believers follow his mass of liberation, searching for a cure for some adversity for which there does not seem to be a label or a remedy.

Is Laurie Strode Returning To Haddonfield Next ‘Halloween’?
Jamie Lee Curtis coming back to play Laurie Strode? Is this a trick or is this a treat? Well, my Little Monsters, it appears to be a huge Halloween treat, indeed. Not for this Halloween mind you, but just in time for the big screen next Halloween. On the next Halloween film’s release date of October 19th of 2018 to be exact. In a post on Twitter, which you can see below, Jamie Lee has announced that Laurie Strode is indeed returning to Haddonfield after 40 years, for one last go ’round with her big bro, Michael Myers. https://twitter.com/jamieleecurtis/status/908760232016322560 Of course this would put Halloween fans in roughly the same position that Alien fans would have been in if they made the Neill Blomkamp film with Ripley and Hicks both returning. Basically one where you have to ignore, for better or worse, that certain chapters in the franchise even exist. I was already stoked when it was announced that Jason

Movie Review: ‘Ghost Witch’ Is Unable To Conjure Any Scares.
Parties are usually a pretty good indicator that summer break has arrived. And it’s at a pool party that we find our boy Zeke. However, unlike the rest of the party goers who are swimming, eating, drinking, and making quite merry, Zeke is glued to his laptop doing paranormal research…even when a bikini clad blonde begins to try and get his attention. Unfortunately once she succeeds, her boyfriend decides that Zeke and his laptop need to take a dip in the pool. This is when the party’s host, Mattie, literally jumps into action and rescues Zeke and his ruined laptop. When she takes Zeke inside to get him some dry clothes, they find out they have a common interest – the paranormal. Feeling responsible, Mattie gives Zeke her own laptop computer as a replacement for his ruined one, but on one condition – he and his ghost hunting team must conduct a ghost hunt at a secluded farm house her
