Keeping up with new things, this week we are back with another episode of "The Wheel of Fear". The way this works is we all pick out several topics to use for the wheel. We all write the topics secrectly and cover them when we add them to the wheel. We then spin the wheel at the beginning of the show and discuss whatever it lands on without the opportunity for research on the subject at hand. ​Don't forget to subscribe to our podcast and join our discussion through our many social network sites and let us know if you have a suggestion for a show you would like for us to do.

With everything we do in our lives, we wouldn't be anywhere without a starting place, a beginning, a birth. The same can be said for the horror genre. Most of us can more than likely name the first thing we watched that scared the hell out of us... and got us hooked. This week we are talking gateway horror. Those things that got us started in to watching horror. Whether it be a cartoon, TV series, or movie, we all have that one thing that started it all. ​Don't forget to subscribe to our podcast and join our discussion through our many social network sites and let us know if you have a suggestion for a show you would like for us to do.

We have all had the thoughts of being something more than what we are. Some want to fly, some want super strength, some want to shape shift, and so on and so forth. So, we decided that this week we would talk about, in essence, shape shifting by way of the lycanthrope. Most notable for the werewolf, which is the bulk of the topic, although there are other shape shifting beings out there. So be wary of the full moon and enjoy the show.Don't forget to subscribe to our podcast and join our discussion through our many social network sites and let us know if you have a suggestion for a show you would like for us to do.

As time goes on we sometimes forget things, like birthdays, phone numbers, songs, and so on. Along with that are the movies that seem to slip our minds. This week we discuss what we refer to as Forgotten Fright, which are movies that we feel may be in that list of movies that people may have forgotten about. Movies that if you were to see on the TV as you flip through the channels, or browse through the VOD listings and think, "Wow, I completely forgot about that movie". So, join us as we take a stroll down memory lane and talk about some of our favorite Forgotten Frights.​Don't forget to subscribe to our podcast and join our discussion through our many social network sites and let us know if you have a suggestion for a show you would like for us to do.

Last week we explored how locations in ?horror can add to the story and become a character in horror stories. This week we summon the sweet sounds of horror movies scores and themes.

When we think about horror stories, we are usually drawn to the characters of the story. Whether it is the hero of the story or even in the case of Horror, the monster, creature, killer, etc. But one of the things that gets overlooked is where the story takes place. Could you imagine "Friday the 13th" if it were set in a bowling alley instead of a camp? Probably not. So this week we discuss locations in horror stories, how stories wouldn't be the same if they weren't set in these locations, and our bucket list of these locations we'd like to visit.Don't forget to subscribe to our podcast and join our discussion through our many social network sites and let us know if you have a suggestion for a show you would like for us to do.

Join us this week as we delve into the world of possibilities. There are times when a book, a movie, a game, or a TV series comes along and we ponder about what it would be like if it were changed into another format (i.e. a movie converted into a longer more in depth TV series, or a novel that has yet to be made into a series or movie). So, this week we discuss some of our choices that we could envision changing into something that could be.Don't forget to subscribe to our podcast and join our discussion through our many social network sites and let us know if you have a suggestion for a show you would like for us to do.
