Eternal Darkness has a book that is the Necronomicon, basically, and each character has to retrieve it from a giant skeletal palm in a room with screaming souls! WTF?

Eternal Darkness is one of the greatest Lovecraftian games in all realities. So, I unburied my GameCube and started playing again.

Sure, the graphics are now dated, but what they did with camera angles, sound design and hallucinations pulls off such a satisfying & sanity crushing experience

Anthony fails Charlemagne, again. From Eternal Darkness: Sanity's Requiem, released on the Nintendo GameCube in 2002. #gamesky #horrorsky

The Genesis of the #JasonUniverse swaps the Garden of Eden for Camp Crystal Lake.

How do you like them apples?

If you watched "Sweet Revenge', what did you think?

I'll share some thoughts later.

Check out these two bosom buddies!

While darkly comic, The 'Burbs reveals its horror roots since it's directed by @thejoedante.bsky.social . Dante's known for The Howling, both Gremlin films, and one of my all-time favorites, Matinee, a love letter to 1950s sci-fi horror.

Steiger had to work under harrowing conditions in The Amityville Horror.

His head was rubbed with honey in order to get the flies to... perform
Way to tough it out, Rod!

It's the anniversary of that movie with the shark who terrorized a coastal tourism destination. No, not that one.

A much better rip, er, adaptation was 2005's War of the Worlds.

Hermann and Harryhausen helped bring horror to your shower and your favorite myths.

Birthday wishes for Ms. Bates, who clarified everyone's definition of "hobbling"

And to an actor who can make you LOL in a film and creep you out in the next, the lovable @johncusack.bsky.social

Imagine if you will, on this day the world lost Rod Serling way too soon.
