    Cutting Deep Into Horror | Halloween (1978): Why Michael Myers Still Scares Us
    2026/10/22
    John Carpenter’s Halloween (1978) turns a quiet neighborhood into a place where Michael Myers could be hiding anywhere. Henrique Couto and Rachael Redolfi revisit Jamie Lee Curtis as Laurie Strode, Donald Pleasence’s obsessive Dr. Loomis, Debra Hill’s teenage characters and Dean Cundey’s use of shadows and empty space. Why does the Shape’s slow, silent pursuit still get under our skin? From Carpenter’s unforgettable score to the final-girl debate, this spoiler-filled horror movie review explores the craft and psychology that make Carpenter’s slasher classic a Halloween-season essential.

    Terrifying & True | Ghostwatch: The BBC Halloween Hoax and Its Real Fallout
    2026/10/19
    Ghostwatch put a fictional haunting inside the familiar frame of BBC television. On Halloween night in 1992, Michael Parkinson and Sarah Greene helped a scripted drama look like a live ghost hunt. Some viewers believed it. The backlash was real. Explore the hidden appearances of Pipes, the broadcast's unnerving tricks, and the argument over trust that followed. Original program audio and BBC Bite Back excerpts bring the scare and its contemporary criticism into focus. How did a made-up ghost leave viewers questioning the safety of their own living rooms?
