Levi dives into how this opportunity came to be and walks us through how he actually wrote the book. We talk about the importance of preparation and how it's key to be ready for possible opportunities. Also, Levi explains how he's handled all of the publicity around the book and even dealing with some negative feedback. Join us in this authentic conversation on Poe, writing, and mental health.

Santa Claus is supposed to bring joy and gifts — but these killers used the beloved red suit to bring terror and death. From Christmas party massacres to serial killers hiding behind the jolly disguise, these are the true crimes that prove not every Santa belongs on the nice list.IN THIS EPISODE: A Christmas party turns tragic when a young bride suggests a game of hide-and-seek… then disappears for fifty years. (The Bramshill Bride) *** When you hear someone mention the headless horseman it's almost impossible not to think of the New England story of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow – a classic Halloween tale if there ever was one. But then there is the Christmas tale of another headless horseman as well – this one in Old England - and he makes an appearance each Christmas at Wycoller Hall. (The Headless Horseman of Wycoller Hall) *** A husband invites his wife into the room and asks her to closer her eyes for a Christmas surprise. The surprise is that she will never open her eyes ever again. (A Killer Who Thinks He Is Interesting) *** A mother is terrified when her daughter tells of a young girl who wants to play with her – but she also appears to be dead. (Ghostly Warnings) *** A Redditor tells a frightening story that took place one Christmas while visiting his grandmother's home. (I'll Never Visit Grandma For Christmas Again) *** To disguise oneself as the ever-generous Kris Kringle only to take life away from the innocent is simply unforgivable. Still, somehow, murders committed by people dressed up as Santa just keep happening.

Unknown Broadcast returns with classic old-time radio horror stories—radio suspense steeped in paranoia, poison, prison clocks, and a blade that never stops its kiss. Settle in, my dear: this ghost stories podcast slips between classic OTR chambers—Mystery Theater, Escape, The Whistler, and more—where alibis are stitched on ocean liners, serpents nest under sheets, and justice keeps perfect time. Tonight's anthology is candlelit, close-mouthed, and very patient. Breathe quietly.

Quill's map becomes the centerpiece of the group's debate, its contours raising more theories than answers. Yet the Halls offer little time for contemplation.

Caroline Nogueras vous raconte une affaire qui éclaire la condition des jeunes femmes de ménages immigrées et isolées à la fin des années 80. Le 4 août 1987, dans un quartier chic des hauteurs de la cité balnéaire, Georges Scharr baigne dans son sang, allongé sur le lit : il a reçu plusieurs coups de couteau. Dans une autre chambre, le fils du couple Scharr est mort. Lui aussi a été poignardé. L'enquête de police s'intéresse dès les premières minutes à la femme de ménage de la famille. Véronique Akobé. Mais pourquoi aurait-elle tué ses patrons ? Une découverte macabre À Cannes, la résidence Château Thorenc est un bijou d'architecture. Elle est située dans les hauteurs, au 38 Boulevard d'Oxford, dans l'un des coins les plus chics de la ville. C'est bien simple, le quartier s'appelle La Californie, ça ne s'invente pas. Le lotissement est dissimulé derrière une végétation luxuriante. Mais l'entrée ne passe pas inaperçue.

Dans Fluide Glacial, le magazine d'Umour et de Bandessinée fondé par Marcel Gotlib, il y a toutes les gammes de l'humour : Gotlib, c'est l'humour slapstick à la Tex Avery, comme Edika ; Goossens, c'est l'humour absurde : Binet et ses Bidochon, c'est la chronique sociale ; SuperDupont de Gotlib, Solé et Jacques Lob, de la parodie… Mais il y a un auteur qui excelle dans l'humour macabre, le fantastique le grotesque, c'est le Belge Philippe Foerster, qui nous arrive cet année avec un livre étrange : Le Necronomickey.Tous les amateurs de Fantastique repèrent l'allusion à H.P. Lovecraft et son grimoire fictif le Nécronomicon} censé contenir des savoirs occultes et interdits liés aux Grands Anciens. Présenté comme un livre maudit écrit par l'« Arabe dément » Abdul Al-Hazred, il sert de fil rouge à l'univers horrifique du Mythe de Cthulhu. Un univers décliné en mangas par Gou Tanabe et publié chez Ki-Oon. Philippe Foerster part de cette base pour la mêler à l'univers sucré de Mickey Mouse}, un peu comme si Alice se retrouait au pays de l'horreur.Une production ActuaBD.com - Interview : Didier Pasamonik & Kelian Nguyen - Montage : Rémi Barnault — Photo : Kelian Nguyen - Musique : We March Together — Courtesy of Patrick Patrikios — Youtube Audio Library

“EXORCISM” by Ray Bradbury | When her mailman husband delivered a package of forbidden books to the woman up the street, Elmira Brown finally had proof of what she'd suspected all along — and she wasn't about to let a witch win another election.IN THIS EPISODE: The name Ray Bradbury immediately brings to mind such fictional tales – classics, many of them… some of which I've narrated here in the podcast such as “The Jar”, “Skeleton”, and “The Small Assassin.” But as good as Bradbury was at writing about the paranormal, he could also write comedy – and in tonight's story he combines the two. “Exorcism” is a fun short tale about a nosy housewife who suspects an older woman in town is studying to become a witch… and decides to confront the old lady to voice her disapproval. SOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM THE EPISODE…“Exorcism” by Ray Bradbury, from the book “The Stories of Ray Bradbury” from Rosetta Books:https://amzn.to/49nrJTGWeird Darkness theme by Alibi Music Library. = = = = =(Over time links seen above may become invalid, disappear, or have different content.

Recently, Sean O'Connor of Macabre Daily's series Paper Cuts asked me to do an interview, and that's what you get to hear/see today!

So if you're looking for other folks like me, if you want to expand your horizons of book-loving podcasters and influencers, I'd suggest checking out what Sean has going on over at Macabre Daily. Also, check out the article that Sean wrote to go with this interview:I am presenting here the same interview, for folks who may not have known about it. In it, Sean asks me about my origins, my methods, some of my favorite moments, and more. It was fun, and I hope a little peek at the life if the podcaster is interesting for you! I know it was a unique experience - to not be the one asking the questions. For folks who prefer the YouTube: This is a public episode.

Mazamitla, Jalisco… the so-called “magical town” of the Sierra del Tigre, with its cobblestone streets, pine scent, and cabins surrounded by endless forests, seems like the perfect place to relax. But hidden among the mist and the tranquility of the mountains is a dark side. In this episode, we travel to Mazamitla to share with you the stories of those who claim to have experienced the inexplicable in their cabins, in the town, and even in the forest: altered time on a path that leads nowhere, footsteps and objects that appear in empty rooms, silhouettes that form in the shadows, hands that touch windows impossible to reach, and voices that seem to return from beyond the grave. Recent stories, sent by our community and collected from various platforms, lead us to believe that this place is not only one of the most beautiful in Mexico, but also one of the most rife with paranormal activity. Perhaps no one can visit Mazamitla… without taking home some evidence of the supernatural. Do you dare to listen?

This week we look into the life of Norah Emily Editha Fornario, better known as Netta.  Her body was discovered wearing no more than a black cloak and a blackened silver cross lying atop a mound with a dagger shape carved into it.  The mound was what locals called a fairy hill and to this day, no one knows how her death came about.  We study her life, her fascination with psychic research and how she eventually became a member of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn.  We dig into what little is known about her life and what strange circumstances surround her death, in this wow so weird episode of the Family Plot Podcast.  (Thanks to the Darkcast Network for taking us onboard).Link to Dean's Book on Amazon: https://a.co/d/1yW8wDgBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/family-plot--4670465/support.

Horror is the fastest-rising film genre in the U.S., more than quadrupling its market share in the past decade. The new book, "Morbidly Curious," delves into our fascination with the macabre, arguing that a little fright might be good for us. Stephanie Sy spoke with its author, Coltan Scrivner. PBS News is supported by - https://www.pbs.org/newshour/about/funders. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy

Matthew Festenstein is a professor of political philosophy at the University of York where he is the former director of the Morrell Centre for Toleration and head of the politics department.

Happy Halloween! This is the final week of Josh and Drusilla's deep dive of Universal Horror and they saved the best for last. Frankenstein (1931) and Bride of Frankenstein (1935). From wiki: “Frankenstein is a 1931 American pre-Code science fiction gothic horror film directed by James Whale, produced by Carl Laemmle Jr., and adapted from the 1927 play Frankenstein: An Adventure in the Macabre by Peggy Webling, which in turn was based on Mary Shelley's 1818 novel Frankenstein; or, The Modern Prometheus. The Webling play was adapted by John L. Balderston, while the screenplay was written by Garrett Fort and Francis Edward Faragoh, with uncredited contributions from Robert Florey and John Russell.”Bride of Frankenstein is a 1935 American Gothic science fiction horror film, and the first sequel to Universal Pictures' 1931 film Frankenstein. As with the first film, Bride of Frankenstein was directed by James Whale starring Boris Karloff as the Monster and Colin Clive as Dr. Frankenstein.[3] The sequel features Elsa Lanchester in the dual role of Mary Shelley and the bride. Also discussed: The Chair Company, Bugonia, Yorgos Lanthimos, Death and the Maiden, Jessie Plemons, Halloween Kills, Slayyyter, and more.  NEXT WEEK: Presence (2024)  Bloodhaus:https://www.bloodhauspod.com/https://www.instagram.com/bloodhauspod/https://letterboxd.com/bloodhaus/Drusilla Adeline:https://www.sisterhydedesign.com/https://letterboxd.com/sisterhyde/https://www.instagram.com/sister__hyde/Joshua Conkelhttps://www.joshuaconkel.com/https://www.instagram.com/joshua_conkel/https://letterboxd.com/JoshuaConkel/  

On this audio and/or video episode of the podcast Phillip was joined once again by author and film fan Fred Schaefer. Phillip and Fred start the show by talking about the general information of the 1972' Ulzana's Raid starring Burt Lancaster. It's then time for Listener' Opinions from Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Then they start the discussion about their favorite parts and not so favorite parts. They have a good time talking about the movie and the actors. It's then time to figure out whether they saw anything that Tarantino might have liked or used in a film. Then they individually rate the movie. Phillip and Fred then talk about whether they would buy this movie, rent it, or find it for free. Phillip then gives his Phil's Film Favorite of the Week; Macabre (1958). Fred then gives his recommendation; Commando (1962). Phillip then talks about what's coming up next week when he will be joined for the first time by podcast host and comedy writer Julie Klausner for 1962's The Music Man.

In this chilling collection, six macabre tales unspool from the archives of classic OTR suspense, filled with corpses that walk too well-dressed, wishes that rot the hand that makes them, and voices from jazz clubs and airplane cabins that should never be heard again. These are vintage radio horror stories resurrected in the dead of night.

Weeks ago, we told you to keep an eye glued to the Macabre Valley #1 Kickstarter from writer Zack Quaintance and artist Anna Readman. Now, you have only one week left to back the project and secure yourself a copy of this fiendishly fun comic. Based on Quaintance's own experiences reporting along the American/Mexican border, Macabre Valley tells a viciously recognizable story, energized by Anna Readman's gnarly creature designs and trippy sequential storytelling. You can even support the project knowing you'll receive your comic soon, as Macabre Valley has surpassed its funding goal spectacularly. To celebrate and encourage last-minute stragglers, we're thrilled to have Zack Quaintance back on the podcast this week to discuss the werewolf priest at Macabre Valley's center, and he's even joined this time by his talented collaborator Anna Readman (making her podcast debut, no less). We discuss what makes the best werewolves and how both creators relate to the real-life horror that surrounds the fantastical horror throughout Macabre Valley. The conversation considers uniforms, from the lawful to the hirsute, and the influence they have on those who wear them. Finally, it leaves the listener imagining a wild, wonderful alternate reality where Cormac McCarthy wrote for EC Comics. Again, Macabre Valley #1 is currently seeking funding via Kickstarter. It's written by Zack Quaintance, illustrated by Anna Readman, colored by Brad Simpson, and lettered by Becca Carey. Please follow Zack Quaintance on Blue Skyand Instagram, and follow Anna Readman on her Website and Instagram.
