Okay, this place got a little messed up!

I need to update the live blog feed below and in my great super-skills deleted it. So I have to fix it, that might take awhile cause I believe you have to manually add each active name into that add-on and there are 100s of names in the HBA. In the meanwhile just click around the links above, many are dead and still have very great content. Some are dead and gone, hopefully I can weed them out as I add back the list.

Also if you would like to be added quick, drop me your link in this post!

It's been another year and with the COVID-19 floating around us all, not really sure what I can do on this site? I am going to shutdown the comments, going to make it so all you see is the active feed below this post and might pull down the sites. As I am finding most of them are DEAD, DOA or GONE and well that is just a waste. If you would like to be added to the "ACTIVE FEED" below, that is really how you might get noticed better... well because you are an active site about horror!

Howlin' Wolf Records: "THE JACK IN THE BOX" music by Christoph Allerstorfer

 

Howlin' Wolf Records proudly presents Christoph Allerstorfer's score for THE JACK IN THE BOX. In early discussions with the composer, Director Lawrence Fowler envisioned a score in the tradition of classic horror films. THE JACK IN THE BOX was recorded in Vienna using a small ensemble of musicians, which the composer skillfully blends with modern scoring techniques, to craft a richly textured score. [http://howlinwolfrecords.com/]
 

Debut Album for composer Christoph Allerstorfer and we at Howlin' Wolf Records are proud to able to bring this score to you. On a side note this is the first release I will score an "executive producer", which is the biggest thrill for me.

The Empties: You are who you eat.

When a housewife contracts a flesh-eating illness, she and her husband rekindle a love that is literally all-consuming!

The Empties is a graphic novel about what happens when love dies. Most of us have experienced the end of a relationship - even the best breakups aren't easy, but the worst ones are messy and leave us battered and bruised, or numb. The love we thought we would have forever is no longer. And something that was good leaves us rotten on the inside. Yeah, I've been there. So you can see why I thought that the messy side of relationships would be fertile grounds for a one of a kind horror story, The Empties. Because when love dies, something of us dies with it... and is reborn in a flesh-eating monster! [https://www.freehorrorcomic.com/empties]

Howlin' Wolf Records presents "BETTER WATCH OUT" and a few more to complete your Holiday!

 

One more score in the end of the year... Howlin' Wolf Records presents "BETTER WATCH OUT" music by Brian Cachia. BETTER WATCH OUT is a horror/dark comedy written and directed by Chris Peckover, which has been described stylistically as a HOME ALONE style romp in the fashion of a Tarantino film. The film stars young Australian actors Olivia DeJonge, Levi Miller, and Ed Oxenbould, and features performances by well-known Hollywood actors Patrick Warburton (SCREAM 3) and Virginia Madsen (CANDYMAN). DeJonge and Oxenbould delivered standout performances in M. Night Shyamalan's THE VISIT, and again in BETTER WATCH OUT, now with another remarkable young actor Levi Miller (PAN). Rounding out the cast of impressive up-and-coming actors are Aleks Mikic and Dacre Montgomery (STRANGER THINGS).
 

 Also just a few days before TOBE' HOOPER'S "DJINN" film score music by BC Smith gets retired forever on December 17th.

Black Rose Writing: "SLASHER CRASHER" by David Nora

 

It’s Halloween. Nick Roesch, a towering figure of evil and stupidity, escapes from the upstate New York mental hospital he’s been committed to for the past five years. Planning to return to his childhood home, where he brutally murdered his babysitter’s boyfriend, his plans are halted when he crosses paths with an even more terrifying beast—two high school friends with some serious beef. Caught in a battle of loyalty that has been brewing for ten years of their friendship, the two girls, Kathleen Strife and Betsy Coleman, force the feud into a savage showdown, pitting the escaped monster against each other. Who will survive this epic death-match, and is it totally wrong to fall in love with the murderous lunatic who just tried to kill your ex-best friend with a machete?

David Nora: Born in Syracuse, NY, David Nora was a normal child until he saw The Exorcist at the age of seven. Sleeping with an actual vial of holy water, he finally recovered with his first viewing of the meta-slasher comedy, Scream. Since then he has been devouring everything horror related-except the Child Play movies. He wants nothing to do with that devil doll. Currently, he lives in NYC with his beloved stuffed polar bear, Po Po.

It is available on Amazon. This is the link: http://bit.ly/SlasherCrasher. It is also available on Barnesandnoble.com and Blackrosewriting.com.

And if that wasn't enough... If a person purchases the book and sends a screenshot of the confirmation to the author's email, david.nora.jr@gmail.com, they will receive a free thank you postcard (US residents only) and digital art of the main characters. 

 

Looking to kill some time, why not make it a "plus one" and join this reading party!

Howlin' Wolf Records: "DJINN" music by BC Smith [Limited Pressing of 250 Cd's]

 

Available as a limited pressing of 250 CDs, Howlin' Wolf Records proudly present BC Smith's score for DJINN.

Juxtaposed against these vividly jagged textures are passages of warmth and melodic charm, underlining scenes of family and love, colored by that most domestic of musical instruments, the piano. For Tobe Hooper's final film, Smith has crafted a modern vernacular for an ancient evil, at once vivid and poignant, thoughtful and provocative. [http://howlinwolfrecords.com]
 

Today is the official release date for Howlin' Wolf' Records "DJINN", this was the final film of director TOBE HOOPER so I am feeling this score was meant to be heard. 

 

This is the company I work in promotions...

Katherine Tegen Books: "A BABYSITTER’S GUIDE TO MONSTER HUNTING" by Joe Ballarini

It’s not every day you learn that monsters are real… In A BABYSITTER’S GUIDE TO MONSTER HUNTING (Katherine Tegen Books; ages 8+), the first in a thrilling and hilarious new series by professional screenwriter Joe Ballarini, they are not only real, they are planning to populate the world with monsters from little kids’ nightmares. The Montecito Picture Company and Walden Films are producing the film adaptation, written by Ballarini and starring Keegan Michael Key.

When middle schooler Kelly Ferguson’s Halloween plans switch from party-going to babysitting, she thinks the scariest part of her night will be the death of her social life. She’s not babysitter material—doesn’t like little kids and thinks it’s a job for nerds—but she needs cash if she wants to go to summer camp; and she wants to go to summer camp, bad.  But when her first charge, four-year-old Baby Jacob, gets carried off by monsters—who really do live under his bed!—to the Grand Guignol (also known as the Boogeyman), she learns there’s a whole lot more to fear than temper-tantrums. Like chasing shadow monsters, drop-kicking Toadies, and mastering monster-fighting moves like the Naptime Headlock and Playground Punch.

Now, with the help of an ancient handbook and a secret society of butt-kicking babysitters, Kelly sets out to destroy the Boogeyman before he brings Jacob’s nightmares to life. But when the monsters’ trail leads to her school’s big Halloween bash, Kelly will have to prove she can save the world—without totally embarrassing herself in front of her friends.

Packed with black-and-white illustrations and insider secrets from the world of monster hunting, A BABYSITTER’S GUIDE TO MONSTER HUNTING is full of tricks, treats, and terrifying twists!

Weird Folk: A Suburban Horror Comedy - Feature Film...

Indie Film 'Weird Folk' Set on Election Night 2016
Crowdfunding Campaign launch May 1st 2017

Weird Folk is told in 4 chapters: A teen makes a terrifying discovery on the dark web, a clown stalks a neighborhood, a chiropractor goes through his worst nightmare, and a couple finds themselves in the cross-hairs of a killer.

The story is centered on teen Howie Oden who finds out there's a hit on his step-dad on the dark web. When Howie scours the neighborhood for him, he encounters scary clowns, bullies, strange visitors, and dead bodies.

Although Weird Folk takes place on election night 2016, it's not solely about the election and the hysteria associated with it. It's about the horror that humans can inflict on one another. It is about the ugly monster inside us all. We show all sides of the political spectrum and do not skew in any one direction. More importantly, this story is extremely entertaining and will give you some laughs and some chills. Election 2016 was an anomaly and the events that take place in this movie are as well.

Also, if you look around you might find some interesting stuff, so go on over... check in on the weird folks... "Make America Weird Again". Monsters are everywhere, the clown might just be knocking at your front door, so answer it.
