Five Halloween horror stories unleash headless folklore, haunted drive-ins, supernatural transformation, vampires, and body horror in a nearly five-hour scary-story audiobook from Weekly Spooky. Halloween Changes You is a long-form Halloween horror compilation about masks that become identities, second lives that demand a price, and monsters who discover that becoming something new may be easier than becoming human again. Presented in story order, this Halloween fiction anthology moves from an intimate chase through the woods to an afterlife movie marathon, a funeral-home reckoning, a mutant spider origin, and a full-scale vampire battle over love, family, and survival. Inside this Halloween horror compilation: • “Dullahan” by Morgan Moore — On Halloween night, new kid Isaiah Crane takes a shortcut through the woods on his way to a costume party. A black horse, a headless rider, and a forgotten witch-trial museum turn a simple bike ride into a desperate fight to keep his head. • “Retro Halloween Weekend” by Rob Fields — Destiny Mirren and Sienna Michaels sneak into the wrong Strickfield drive-in with robbery on their minds. The vintage horror marathon soon becomes an afterlife judgment, and Death has a pair of unexpected job openings. • “Retro Halloween Revelations” by Rob Fields — The old drive-in ground has become a funeral home, and Destiny—now living under a new name and a far darker calling—must face the family that helped shape her. One Halloween confession will decide who receives mercy and who takes the final journey. • “New Life” by Rob Fields — After surviving a blood-soaked Thanksgiving, Felicia Mirren discovers that an experimental resurrection compound and her pet tarantula have changed her forever. By Halloween, she is caught between undead attacks, a secret society, and a monstrous new body that may make her Strickfield's strangest protector. • “Madelyne's Revenge” by Rob Fields — Felicia has built a new family and a new life, but a vampire from another world has returned to destroy both. What follows is a Halloween battle of spider powers, vampirism, dark magic, grief, and the kind of revenge that refuses to stay buried. From Dullahan and headless-rider folklore to haunted drive-in horror, supernatural afterlife stories, vampire revenge, spider monsters, and full-body transformation, this collection is built for listeners searching for scary Halloween stories, horror fiction anthologies, dark fantasy audiobooks, folklore horror, body horror, and long-form spooky-season listening. Follow Weekly Spooky on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeartRadio, or your favorite podcast app, and return every Wednesday for a brand-new scary story. Keep the Halloween season going with more frightening fiction, monsters, ghosts, and nightmares from the Weekly Spooky horror podcast.

Today on Too Opinionated, we enter the wonderfully twisted mind of horror author Alex Grass to discuss his new book, Infernal Tramps: Tales of Weird Terror. Described as "Twilight Zone meets Hostel," Infernal Tramps is a collection of bizarre, disturbing and darkly imaginative stories filled with body horror, strange creatures, brutal transformations and characters facing situations that go very, very wrong. Critics have called the stories "potent," "visceral," "elegant, gripping, and seriously strange." Behind the horror are surprisingly recognizable human fears. The collection tackles loneliness, abuse, medical debt, policing, cosmetic surgery, toxic relationships, grief, addiction, guilt and class resentment—then twists them into nightmares. And Alex's own journey may be nearly as unconventional as his fiction. Before becoming a published author, he attended Cardozo Law School, worked with the New York County Defenders, attended mortuary school, worked construction in South Philadelphia and Israel's Negev desert, competed in powerlifting and strongman, and ultimately went through rehab. He's also an experienced performer who's acted on television and appeared on stages throughout New York and Philadelphia. We talk Infernal Tramps, weird fiction, body horror, finding inspiration in real-world anxieties, pushing boundaries, writing truly unsettling stories and Alex's extraordinary road to becoming an author. Stephen Gallagher calls the collection "Elegant, gripping, and seriously strange," while Richard Thomas describes it as "disturbing and unsettling in the best possible ways." ⚠️ Enter at your own risk.

Forced to trek onward over the sticky sweet corpses comes the eerie realization that the party must now rest or risk exhaustion.

Tonight She Comes (2016) is a blood-soaked supernatural slasher for horror fans building their Halloween watchlists—a cabin-in-the-woods nightmare that mutates into occult body horror, splatter comedy, and resurrection horror. On this episode of Cutting Deep into Horror, hosts Henrique Couto and Rachael Redolfi revisit the outrageous independent horror film that has stayed with them for a decade and explain why its strangest choices are far more deliberate than they first appear. Henrique and Rachael trace the story from its apparently unstoppable, blood-covered killer and intentionally foolish slasher characters to a rural family protecting its cabin with glowing blood runes. The mystery soon explodes into an occult resurrection ritual involving virgins, non-virgins, menstrual blood, a pentagram, and one revolting chalice. They also revisit discovering the movie through the Movies at the Asylum theatrical series, discuss The Asylum, Sharknado, and low-budget B-movie culture, and break down the film's sleeping-bag homage to Friday the 13th Part VII: The New Blood. As Weekly Spooky ramps up toward Halloween season, the conversation digs into the movie's grotesque humor, gory special effects, supernatural rules, and deliberately blurred ideas of protagonist and antagonist. Why does Felicity gradually become the closest thing the story has to a protagonist? How can a movie this absurd still follow a carefully constructed internal logic? And why does its spectacularly gruesome rebirth ending feel earned rather than random? For listeners filling a spooky-season podcast queue with slashers, strange indie horror movies, occult rituals, and unforgettable body horror, Tonight She Comes is one nightmare that refuses to stay buried. Inside this episode:Discovering Tonight She Comes during the Movies at the Asylum theatrical seriesThe supernatural slasher and cabin-in-the-woods setupDeliberately foolish characters, horror clichés, and genre self-awarenessThe Friday the 13th Part VII sleeping-bag kill homageBlood runes, virgin blood, menstrual blood, and the resurrection ritualWhy Felicity becomes the closest thing the film has to a protagonistGory effects, occult body horror, and the unforgettable rebirth endingFull spoilers throughout.

Spooky season body horror hatches in “Odd Egg” by Alex Grass, a weird creature-horror story about a carton of free eggs, a smiling stranger, and something impossible waiting inside the final shell. After Roger from the mysterious Keystone Cooperative Growers Association leaves Maryellen a dozen farm-fresh eggs and promises that a god lives inside them, breakfast takes a grotesque turn. Eleven shells are empty. The last produces a tiny human head on six spiderlike legs—and the thing does not stay tiny for long. As it grows, feeds, and changes, Maryellen is pulled into a nightmare of body horror, monstrous metamorphosis, dark comedy, and the coming Time of the Egg.  A perfect ramp-up to Halloween, this narrated horror story is made for listeners seeking scary Halloween stories, spooky stories, weird fiction, creature horror, body horror stories, and offbeat horror narration with a gruesome pulp-monster edge. This episode marks Alex Grass's first appearance on Weekly Spooky. The ebook of Infernal Tramps: Tales of Weird Terror by Alex Grass is available for only 99 cents on Amazon, and is free to read with Kindle Unlimited. You can also find out more at www.infernaltramps.com.

Ils pensaient descendre pour survivre. Ils ont construit leur propre tombe. Dans cette fiction de podcast horreur, Chandleyr vous entraîne dans Le Bunker des Moreau, l'histoire d'une famille enfermée sous terre après une alerte toxique, persuadée d'échapper à la contamination du monde extérieur. Mais très vite, quelque chose change. Les odeurs deviennent organiques. Les murs semblent respirer. Les voix murmurent dans le béton. Et dans ce refuge censé protéger, le père, la mère, le fils et la petite sœur commencent à se regarder comme des intrus portant le visage de leurs proches. Ce n'est plus un simple enfermement. C'est une lente digestion.Le Bunker des Moreau est une fiction de podcast horreur français où le survivalisme, la psychose, les toxines, le trauma familial et le body horror fusionnent jusqu'à faire du bunker lui-même un organisme. À travers Lucas, adolescent prisonnier d'un huis clos devenu carnivore, l'épisode explore la peur la plus sale : celle d'un foyer qui ne protège plus, mais transforme. Le père veut purifier. La mère veut fuir. La petite sœur entend les arbres parler. Et plus les jours passent, plus le refuge cesse d'être un abri pour devenir une matrice de décomposition. Entre creepypasta français, horreur familiale, bunker maudit, spores, filaments, contamination psychique et maison enterrée, Dans l'Ombre des Légendes pousse ici l'horreur vers une zone suffocante, sans rédemption.Cette histoire est pensée pour celles et ceux qui aiment les récits claustrophobes, la famille détruite de l'intérieur, les atmosphères de bunker, les contaminations lentes, les enfances abîmées et cette horreur adulte où le réel ne s'effondre pas d'un coup, mais commence à pousser sous la peau. Une fiction où le plus terrifiant n'est pas ce qu'il y a dehors, mais ce qui a toujours été déjà là, dans les murs, sous la dalle, dans l'air, et bientôt dans le corps de ceux qui voulaient simplement survivre.

In this episode, Sidney kicks off Body Horror month by breaking down one of the greatest horror movies of the last decade, The Substance (2024).

Body horror stories rarely get more disturbing than “LET DOWN” by Morgan Moore, a narrated horror story told through the innocent perspective of a six-year-old girl who cannot speak and is trying to care for her hungry baby brother.Her family is collapsing under sickness, poverty, neglect, and her father's gambling addiction. When the food and baby formula run out, she remembers one simple fact: mothers make milk. Armed with a child's incomplete understanding and a pair of kitchen scissors, she tries to solve the problem herself.This gruesome horror short story blends psychological horror, graphic body horror, domestic dread, and childlike innocence into a shocking nightmare. Start your spooky season early with one of Weekly Spooky's most disturbing horror stories—made for listeners who seek scary stories, creepy stories, narrated horror stories, and unsettling horror narration.Weekly Spooky is a horror fiction anthology and spooky podcast bringing you weekly horror stories, terrifying fiction, and Halloween horror all year long.

The rain shows no mercy. The road into Birbhum has vanished into the dark. And the truth waiting at the end of the line is far more sinister than the storm.With two years of silence finally broken, Commandant Kabir leads Team Alpha straight into the heart of the nightmare. Driven by classified Intel and the lingering shadows of Patal Lok, Kabir begins pulling at the fraying threads of the investigation, stepping into a silent, abandoned village where time itself seems to have choked and died.Inside rain-drenched walls and suffocating shadows, disturbing evidence begins to surface—unsettling anatomical sketches, locked cellars, reel canisters wrapped in tape, and the lingering echoes of human cruelty. As Kabir forces the dark truth into the light, the boundary between real-world madness and ancient, cosmic forces begins to shatter. But in a place where an entire village has already vanished into the void... who will become the next to be consumed?Be warned, Bhay Vasis: True fear does not live in the stories; it lives in the silence that follows.PLCU Main Timeline - https://www.youtube.com/show/VLPLdvJUnylV0qtenxpChcq0qdzBqpuFIN3D?sbp=QAE%3DSehjeevi and T.A.N.T.R.A Universe - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLdvJUnylV0qvUoGi1uFfAeV61b-pNV0AVListen closely to this terrifying chapter of the Bhay Originals universe, but remember... if you feel a sudden chill in your room, do not take off your headphones.Top Contributors Become Executive producers for the next episode.

There was SO much to say about Christopher Nolan's The Odyssey that we couldn't fit it into one episode — we tried, we failed miserably, and honestly we're thrilled about it, so you're getting a two-parter.This is Part 1, where we set sail into the three-hour epic everyone's been waiting for. We get into the Trojan Horse reimagining that traces back to the Troy movie Nolan never made, and the brutal sacrifice that recontextualises the whole opening. We defend the Cyclops (hear us out — on a rewatch, he's the victim).We break down the slow, skin-crawling transformation scene that out-brutals every battle. And we get into why the first woman to translate The Odyssey, absolutely hates this film — the missing sex, the grim food, all of it. It's epic, brutal and occasionally unhinged. Part 2 drops soon.TAKE THE SPILL QUIZ HERETHE END BITS Find and follow us on socials: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thespillpodcast/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thespillpod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thespillpodcast/ Read all the latest entertainment news on Mamamia: https://mamamia.com.au/entertainment/Support Independent Women’s Media.

This week on Fright Flick FMK, we're watching and reacting to Wormtown — a sci-fi horror body-horror nightmare about a town taken over by flesh-eating, mind-altering worms. One year into the plague, Ashland, Ohio has stopped acting like a normal town and started acting like a parasite-worshipping nightmare. A cult-like mayor is running the show, the infected are spreading their worm gospel, and three uninfected women are trying to survive through scavenging, extreme hygiene, paranoia, and whatever bad decisions are left on the table. So yes, this sounds disgusting. And yes, that is exactly why we're watching it. Fright Flick FMK is a horror movie watch-along and reaction show for fans who like their scary movies with attitude, laughs, real reactions, and zero fake polish. We kick back, get elevated, pour a drink, press play, and talk through the chaos in real time. For Wormtown, we're digging into the body horror, the parasite madness, the cult-town energy, the survival setup, the gross-out moments, and whether this movie crawls under our skin or just makes us want to shower immediately. At the end, we rate it with The Only Rating System That Matters: Marry It means the movie is a keeper — the kind of horror flick you can grow old with and keep coming back to. F@#k It means it's a good time when the mood hits — maybe not forever material, but definitely worth another late-night visit. Kill It means the movie gave us a good time, we might tell our friends about it, but we are ghosting it in the morning. So pull up a chair, pour whatever you're pouring, light whatever you're lighting, and join the Fright Flick Family. Sip. Smoke. Scream. Rate. Drop your FMK rating for Wormtown in the comments: Are you giving it Marry It, F@#k It, or Kill It? #Wormtown #FrightFlickFMK #HorrorReaction

Forty years ago this summer, genre master David Cronenberg (Videodrome, Eastern Promises, The Dead Zone, Dead Ringers) directed this remake of the 1958 cult classic of the same name starring Vincent Price.  This is the updated story of Seth Brundle (Jeff Goldblum), a quirky scientist who has been developing an exciting new invention geared towards teleportation.  He meets an enterprising science reporter named Ronnie (Geena Davis) and together, they not only work to further this technoloy....but they also fall in love.  But then one fateful night alone, Seth makes the mistake of "teleporting while drunk" and the pod which he's using happens to have a house fly inside of it. :o And what results is a gradual, gruesome transformation for Seth into.....something else!  This film not only became a suprise box office hit but would also go on to win a VERY deserved Oscar for Best Makeup.  Be afraid, be very afraid. Also see below for a hysterical stand-up bit from Martin Lawrence about this movie which is cited in this review! :p https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-ITAthB4ai0Host & Editor: Geoff GershonProducer: Marlene Gershon Send us Fan MailSupport the showhttps://livingforthecinema.com/Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/Living-for-the-Cinema-Podcast-101167838847578Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/livingforthecinema/Letterboxd:https://letterboxd.com/Living4Cinema/

HOLY HELL, DC IS ACTUALLY GOING THERE!! Greg Alba & Coy Jandreau react to the brand-new CLAYFACE Official Trailer from DC Studios, released during SDCC 2026 week! Fresh off the massive Avengers: Doomsday trailer, San Diego Comic-Con continues with our first full look at this R-rated DCU body-horror movie set in Gotham City. In our Clayface trailer reaction, breakdown, and review, we discuss Tom Rhys Harries as struggling actor Matt Hagen, his horrifying transformation into the classic Batman villain, Naomi Ackie as Dr. Caitlyn Corr, Max Minghella as Gotham detective John Pearlman, and director James Watkins fully embracing the grotesque horror of movies like The Fly and The Substance. The practical effects, melting faces, scissors scene, nanotechnology serum, psychological horror, and tragic character story all make this feel completely different from anything Marvel or DC has attempted before. We also talk about James Gunn and Peter Safran's DC Universe, Mike Flanagan's original Clayface script, this movie's place in the DCU, the absence of Batman, potential connections to the Caped Crusader, Matt Reeves' The Batman Part II, Robert Pattinson's Batman universe, DC Studios at San Diego Comic-Con, and whether Clayface could become one of the most disturbing comic-book movies ever made.

Julian, Emilio, and Madeline continue their episode cycle focusing on Twins and Doppelgängers with a "Suggestion Box" episode about "Dead Ringers," David Cronenberg's film from 1988 which stars Jeremy Irons in an iconic dual role as identical twin gynecologists Beverly and Elliot Mantle. Loosely inspired by the true story of Stewart and Cyril Marcus, the film examines how a romantic entanglement disrupts the equilibrium of these two brothers in their shared profession as well as an illicit side exploit, giving way to a powerful meditation on brotherhood, addiction, and co-dependency in its many forms. The three co-hosts explore Cronenberg's portrayal of twindom by digging into the film's evocative and technically savvy visuals, the often intentionally confusing tableaus which carry the story forward, and the technical and emotional mastery of Jeremy Irons in a career-defining role that, despite not winning an Oscar, certainly paved the way for accolades and great roles to come.  If you enjoy our podcast, please rate and review us on your podcast platform of choice.

Romero traps the end of the world inside a military bunker, where zombies own the surface and the survivors may be more dangerous than the dead.Deep-Cut Spotlight — The Horrible Dr. HichcockBarbara Steele stars in Riccardo Freda's morbid Italian gothic horror film about obsession, death, forbidden desire, and a mansion where the past refuses to stay buried. Horror Birthdays This Week:Dan Aykroyd, Larry David, Tom Cruise, and Gloria Stuart all land in this week's horror-adjacent birthday roll, from paranormal comedy and classic Universal horror to vampire films, alien invasion, and anxiety comedy.Weekly Recommendation — Tales of TerrorRoger Corman, Edgar Allan Poe, Vincent Price, Peter Lorre, and Basil Rathbone bring classic anthology horror, gothic dread, revenge, madness, and candlelit old-school atmosphere to this week's recommendation.From Empire of the Ants and Mexican Gothic to Tetsuo: The Iron Man, Day of the Dead, The Horrible Dr. Hichcock, and Tales of Terror, this week in horror history proves that summer is never safe from monsters, machines, mansions, zombies, or the dead things waiting underground.

Live from Phoenix Fan Fusion, Olivia and Shauna head a panel to discuss a serious topic with their characteristic dark humor and feminist sass. Womansploitation - using violence against women as entertainment - is found in movies, in television shows, in books, in true crime documentaries and podcasts. Obviously, there is money to be made in victimizing women for the enjoyment of an audience. The Junkies look at the history of this sub-genre, discuss some examples and go into why it's so popular and the effects this has on society. With the help of the audience and research, they ask and answer questions like 'when does depicting violence against women become critique — and when does it become consumption?' and 'is the violence in the story a “narrative necessity” or exploitation?' Olivia and Shauna give examples of movies, TV shows and directors (maybe some of your favorites!) that have been challenged for their use of violence against girls and women. From 'fridging' to final girls to the perfect true crime victim, the Junkies cover the many, many ways women are exploited for entertainment. You can watch the Pop Culture Junkie Podcast on YouTube!

Horror history spirals into paranoia and infection this week—from The Thing's frozen body horror to 28 Days Later's rage-virus chaos, The Omen's cursed bloodline, 1408's haunted hotel nightmare, and Quake's gothic digital terror. Henrique explores how June 22–28 birthed some of horror's most influential outbreak and supernatural films, dissecting what made them landmarks in horror legends and why they still feel dangerously relevant today.Inside this episode:• 1408 turns one hotel room into a psychological pressure cooker, trapping a skeptical writer inside a space that studies him, wounds him, and refuses to let him leave.• The Omen gives the evil-child movie one of its classiest and creepiest landmarks, with the Antichrist hiding behind privilege, elegance, and a terrifyingly calm little smile.• 28 Days Later drags outbreak horror into the 21st century with empty London streets, sprinting infected, digital grime, and the terrifying idea that civilization can collapse almost overnight.• Quake opens a slipgate into gothic castles, wet tunnels, shambling monsters, Lovecraftian dread, and a diseased industrial soundscape that helped reshape horror-tinged gaming.• The Deep-Cut Spotlight goes to The Thing, John Carpenter's 1982 alien paranoia nightmare about imitation, isolation, mistrust, Rob Bottin's legendary effects, and the terrifying question of who is still human.Plus: a horror birthday roll featuring Bruce Campbell, Peter Lorre, Isabelle Adjani, and Kathy Bates, a creepy look at how horror teaches us to distrust the obvious, and a weekly recommendation for Twilight Zone: The Movie, the complicated 1983 anthology film that brought Rod Serling's nightmare world to the big screen.From haunted rooms and Antichrist children to rage-infected streets, gothic gaming nightmares, Antarctic isolation, alien imitation, blood tests, body horror, and the cold collapse of trust, this week proves horror history can make monsters out of places, people, memories, machines, and the person standing right beside you.

This week we flash back to one of history's most disgusting medical mysteries: the Insatiable Tarrare, an 18th-century French man whose appetite was so extreme he became the fascination of spectators, surgeons, and even the military. From chowing on garbage and live animals to swallowing secret military documents, Tarrare's story is part body horror, part history lesson, and part “please don't listen to this while eating.” Was he cursed? Sick? Or just the hungriest man who ever lived?SHOW NOTESBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/scared-all-the-time--7084296/support.Get the latest episodes of our bonus show NEW FEAR UNLOCKED -- and a whole lot more! --by supporting the show on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/ScaredAllTheTime

Jason and Rachel review The Ugly Stepsister, a Norwegian body horror take on Cinderella now streaming on Hulu. Told from the perspective of Elvira, the eldest stepsister, the movie turns the familiar fairy tale into a grotesque nightmare about beauty standards, class, desperation, and what women are forced to do to survive in a world built around male approval. We talk body horror, Brothers Grimm fairy tales, the tapeworm scene, eyelash sewing, foot mutilation, sound design, feminist horror, and why this worked for us way more than The Substance.
