Today, January 19th, is Edgar Allan Poe’s 210th birthday. To celebrate, I wanted to take this opportunity to go over my favorite tale of his. When you ask most people what their top Poe story is, you usually get the same answers: The Tell-Tale Heart, The Pit and the Pendulum, …

You might be thinking that VR – also known as Virtual Reality – is a gimmick, that it’s too expensive, or that you’re not a gamer so there’s no reason to care. Maybe you’ve tried it in the early days and weren’t impressed. I’m here to tell you it’s time to …

As most of you by now may be aware, I’m one of Joe Bob Briggs’s biggest fans, and I love everything he has done for the horror community. I was pleasantly surprised when I was asked to join a who’s who of the genre to contribute my part to Hansi Oppenheimer’s video, Squee …
