Celebrate Summerween and Halloween in summer with a complete horror fiction anthology packed with occult rituals, crime horror, murder mysteries, supernatural monsters, body horror, and dark comedy.Two criminal brothers follow a wealthy woman home expecting an easy robbery.

Four scary stories unleash a haunted house, a cursed yard-sale object, escaped serial killers, and flesh-eating cannibal monsters. Celebrate Summerween and Halloween in summer with a complete horror fiction anthology packed with ghost stories, paranormal activity, haunted objects, home-invasion horror, supernatural creatures, and terrifying encounters in the woods.A first date leads two Strickfield teenagers into an abandoned haunted mansion where a ghost child watches from the window. Trapped inside the Carnovasch Estate, they follow the spirit into a dark basement and uncover a two-hundred-year-old secret sealed behind a brick wall. Then a young couple buys a handmade ceramic bowl for one dollar at a yard sale. The cursed object moves by itself, returns whenever they attempt to abandon it, and summons the freezing ghost of a missing artist into their apartment. Their thrift-store bargain has become a paranormal nightmare—and escaping the haunting may require passing it to someone else.Next, two violent serial killers invade an isolated country home and terrorize the family preparing dinner. But the home invaders have chosen the wrong victims. Something inhuman lives inside the house, and the killers are about to learn that they are no longer the most dangerous predators at the table. Finally, a nighttime party in the woods becomes a brutal survival nightmare when two teenagers discover their friends murdered beside an old stone chimney. Humanoid forest creatures emerge from the darkness with sharp claws, sadistic intelligence, and an appetite for human flesh.

Der Sommer ist noch lang – oder gar nicht mal mehr so. Heute geht es für dieses Jahr zum vorerst letzten Mal ins Sommerferienlager. Beziehungsweise geht es rein: Laura hat Summerween für sich entdeckt und erklärt es Simon bei der besten Aktivität dafür: beim Bowling! Summerween heißt nämlich, den Sommer Sommer sein zu lassen und weg von der Hibiskusblüte hin zu den etwas anderen Trends zu gehen. Es ging also an die Kugeln, die geworfen wurden.

Join filmmaker Henrique Couto and Rachael Redolfi as Cutting Deep into Horror keeps Summerween rolling and gets an early jump on Halloween season with Hell House LLC (2015), Stephen Cognetti's cult found footage horror movie about a Halloween haunted attraction inside the abandoned Abaddon Hotel. This spoiler-filled Hell House LLC review and ending discussion digs into the movie's mockumentary setup, haunted-house scares, creepy clown mannequins, cult rumors, basement terror, and the opening-night catastrophe that turned a seasonal haunt into a nightmare. If you're already building your Halloween horror movie watchlist, this is one worth revisiting. Henrique and Rachael break down why Hell House LLC works so well as both found footage horror and a fake documentary, including the movie's clever camera logic, background scares, strange noises, sleepwalking, moving figures, malfunctioning equipment, and the growing realization that something inside the Abaddon Hotel may be much worse than the haunt its crew is trying to build. The episode specifically digs into how the documentary structure strengthens the movie rather than simply providing an excuse for the cameras to keep rolling. The conversation also continues the haunted-attraction discussion from The Houses October Built, comparing the two movies' approaches to Halloween haunts, extreme haunted houses, found footage storytelling, and spooky-season atmosphere. While The Houses October Built travels through the world of real haunted attractions, Hell House LLC traps its characters inside one location and slowly turns the business of manufactured fear into something terrifyingly real. Then it's time to enter the Abaddon Hotel itself: its sinister history, rumors of cult activity and suicide, the increasingly disturbing behavior of the Hell House crew, the terrifying clown figures, the disastrous opening night, the panic in the basement, and the revelations waiting in the recovered footage. Henrique and Rachael follow the mystery all the way through the movie's final trip back to the hotel and discuss why its relatively simple scares can still create so much dread. For fans of Halloween movies, haunted house horror, found footage movies, supernatural horror, horror mockumentaries, creepy clowns, abandoned hotels, haunted attractions, spooky season movies, and Summerween, Hell House LLC has become one of the modern horror movies that feels almost tailor-made for October. Inside this episode:Why Hell House LLC works so well as a Halloween-season horror movieSummerween, spooky season, and the appeal of Halloween haunted attractionsHell House LLC vs. The Houses October BuiltWhy the mockumentary and found-footage format feels convincingThe Abaddon Hotel and its disturbing historyCreepy clowns, mannequins, background scares, and slow-building dreadSleepwalking, strange noises, camera problems, and escalating supernatural activityThe Hell House crew's increasingly disastrous haunt preparationsOpening night and the deadly basement sequenceThe Hell House LLC ending and the final return to the Abaddon HotelWhy this one deserves a spot in the Halloween horror rotationSharpen your machetes and straight razors — we're Cutting Deep into Horror.

Summerween arrives with a laugh you can hear from across the midway. In this July edition of Monthly Spooky, Henrique Couto and Michelle dive into Laughing Sal, the towering carnival animatronic whose haunting mechanical cackle became American folklore. They explore how this six-foot funhouse nightmare evolved from a popular midway attraction into a cryptid-like legend—appearing in movies, museums, and paranormal stories. Discover the strange history behind one of America's creepiest cursed objects and why we fear the mechanical as much as the supernatural. Perfect for horror enthusiasts who love cryptid encounters and supernatural folklore.They trace the strange history of this six-foot mechanical nightmare, from her early days as one of America's most popular funhouse attractions to her appearances in movies, museums, and pop culture. Why did generations of amusement-park visitors love Laughing Sal? Why does her endless recorded laughter feel so threatening today? And how did a freckled, gap-toothed carnival figure become one of the world's most uncanny animatronic dolls?Before entering Laughing Sal's funhouse, Henrique and Michelle take a funny, creepy trip through the month's strangest spooky news, cryptid folklore, paranormal investigations, UFO reports, and archaeological mysteries.Inside this episode:Gracie the missing giraffe is finally found alive in Texas after spending two weeks on the loose.Butler County, Ohio deputies confront a snake hiding beneath a resident's bed.Lansing, Michigan introduces the Hooga Hooga, a hairy, Bigfoot-like summer-camp cryptid said to tunnel beneath a local nature center.A Japanese real-estate service sends investigators into stigmatized homes overnight to test them for ghosts and paranormal activity.A rare Antarctic titanosaur fossil is rediscovered after sitting unnoticed inside a drawer for decades.Centuries-old royal tombs in Barcelona contain unexpected remains and far more bodies than researchers anticipated.Divers recover a haunting carved face and possible ritual animal bones from a Polish lake.The Pentagon investigates a reported swarm of mysterious UAPs and watercraft near the Virginia coast.Archaeologists enter a sealed chamber beneath a medieval Ukrainian castle and search for additional underground rooms.Michelle closes the episode with a wonderfully unsettling Glitch in the Matrix story about a childhood McDonald's collectible glass that apparently duplicates itself—complete with the exact same crack.Come for Laughing Sal. Stay for cryptids, ghosts, UFOs, secret chambers, ancient burials, haunted real estate, bedroom snakes, and one deeply suspicious drinking glass. This funny and frightening Summerween episode is perfect for fans of creepy carnival history, animatronic horror, haunted attractions, paranormal podcasts, Bigfoot folklore, unexplained mysteries, Halloween in July, and the early spooky season.
Halloween in July begins with classic old time radio horror, vintage suspense, gothic mystery, witchcraft, Lights Out terror, and spooky season nightmares. Unknown Broadcast returns with an extra-large Halloween-in-summer transmission featuring six eerie radio dramas from CBS Radio Mystery Theater, Escape, Suspense, The Whistler, Lights Out, and The Mysterious Traveler. This classic OTR horror lineup includes Here Goes the Bride, Ancient Sorceries, The Lord of the Witch Doctors, Mirage, Cat Wife, and Beware of Tomorrow — stories of haunted brides, occult villages, witch doctors, jealous murder, catlike transformation, killer robots, artificial life, and sci-fi horror from the Golden Age of radio.
Celebrate Summerween and Halloween in July with four complete narrated Halloween horror stories featuring Bigfoot, vampires, zombies, demons, supernatural folklore, and terrifying encounters after dark. In this special Weekly Spooky horror compilation, a night watchman is hunted across a remote wind farm by a violent Sasquatch, a centuries-old vampire couple spends its anniversary inside a shopping mall after closing, a bicycle courier risks his life delivering supplies during the zombie apocalypse, and a desperate manager discovers that his mysterious new employer may be recruiting workers for Hell itself. These four scary stories combine Bigfoot horror, Sasquatch attacks, vampire horror, zombie apocalypse survival, demonic bargains, workplace horror, dark comedy, supernatural suspense, cryptid encounters, and Halloween campfire storytelling into one feature-length audio horror anthology. Start spooky season early with this Summerween horror special, perfect for listeners searching for Halloween stories, scary stories, horror fiction, creepypasta, cryptid stories, vampire fiction, zombie horror, supernatural thrillers, narrated horror podcasts, and frightening stories told around the campfire. “I Guard Windmills, and I'm Not Sure If I'll Survive the Shift” Written by Michael KelsoA survivor of two disastrous supernatural jobs accepts an overnight security position at a remote wind farm. But when he discovers a burned turbine and evidence of something enormous moving through the surrounding forest, his quiet night shift becomes a brutal chase involving a furious Bigfoot with a violent grudge. “A Night at the Galleria” Written by Rob FieldsA seemingly young couple hides inside a shopping mall for an after-hours anniversary celebration. When three thieves break into the deserted galleria, they have no idea that the romantic strangers watching them have remained together since the Black Death—or what the ancient vampires intend to do next. “Send Beer” Written by Michelle AntisocialIn a city devastated by the zombie apocalypse, bicycle courier Felix and a flock of homing pigeons keep isolated survivors supplied with groceries and medicine. But when a regular customer stops responding and one of the birds returns covered in blood, a routine welfare check reveals an infected family and an unexpectedly useful bottle of vodka. “Torture and Other Job Skills” Written by Killian CraneAfter losing the management position that defined his life, a cruel and desperate man answers a mysterious help-wanted advertisement. The address leads him to a black-glass office tower where revenge, torture, and complete moral surrender are not workplace violations—they are requirements for employment. Turn down the lights, escape the summer heat, and celebrate Halloween in July with four tales of monsters, bloodsuckers, the undead, and infernal employment. Summerween begins now on Weekly Spooky.

Join filmmaker Henrique Couto as Cutting Deep into Horror explores The Houses October Built (2014)—a found footage nightmare about five friends hunting the most extreme haunted houses across America. Discover how this supernatural folklore film captures real haunted-house horror, extreme-tourism fears, and the dark secrets lurking behind roadside attractions. Perfect for early Halloween spooky season listening.Henrique is joined by Rachael Redolfi for a spoiler-filled review of director Bobby Roe's Halloween horror film, which blends fictional found footage with real haunted attractions, genuine haunt performers and documentary-style material.The group's road trip becomes increasingly dangerous as their search for a secret underground attraction called the Blue Skeleton draws the attention of masked performers who begin following, filming and confronting them far beyond the supposed safety of the haunts.Henrique and Rachael discuss the film's documentary origins, its countdown toward October 31 and the way it transforms the excitement of Halloween tourism into something threatening and deeply uncomfortable.The conversation explores:The documentary origins of The Houses October BuiltReal haunted houses and Halloween attractionsHenrique and Rachael's personal haunt experiencesTouch passes and interactive haunted attractionsThe mystery surrounding the Blue SkeletonHaunted-house actors dealing with frightened or violent guestsExtreme haunt legends and McKamey ManorThe difference between theatrical scares and genuine abuseWhy human villains can be more frightening than supernatural monstersComparisons with Hell House LLCThen Henrique and Rachael go completely behind the curtain to explain The Houses October Built ending, including the kidnapping at the Halloween festival, the group being separated, the coffins, the threat of being burned alive and Brandy's horrifying buried-alive finale.Does the movie's ambiguous conclusion make it more frightening? Is the Blue Skeleton an extreme haunted attraction, a criminal organization or something even darker? And why does this unsettling movie continue to stand out among modern Halloween found footage films?Celebrate Summerween, enjoy some Halloween in July horror, and begin building your early Halloween movie watchlist with The Houses October Built.Next time on Cutting Deep into Horror, Henrique and Rachael continue their Summerween haunted-attraction double feature with Hell House LLC.

Here comes the heat again. Not bad today with a high around 80°…but reaching the upper 80's tomorrow and into the 90's by Sunday & Monday. Uffdah. Today is Jean's last day on the show for awhile as she & the family are headed to Boston & Cape Cod for a summer vacation. Speaking of Summer…a bunch of people like to into Halloween-mode the day after the 4th of July. And if you're one of them, we talked about some horror movies that are set during the Summer months that you might want to watch. In the news this morning, Powerball is now available in the US and the UK, a recall on toaster ovens, a bear got stuck on a utility pole, Vance Boelter is sentenced, a verdict in the Shiloh Hendrix case, and the latest on the deadly officer-involved shooting in Madison. In sports, the Brewers start a 3-game series with the Rockies tonight, the Dodgers visited the White House yesterday to celebrate their World Series win last season, Fernando Mendoza signs his rookie contract with the Raiders, the Ravens already released Diego Pavia, and Patrick Kane is coming back to Chicago! We let you know what's on TV & streaming this weekend and what's new in theaters. Plus, some new music you may want to pick up. Also talked about a new series being produced by Peyton Manning called "NASCAR: Americana" Earlier this week, we had a story about USPS worker in #Florida who was picking up random animals while delivering mail and bringing them back to her house…and now a bunch of those animals are being reunited with their rightful owners. Also, a teenager with some serious lasso skills just recently saved a person who was drowning in the Yellowstone River. And speaking of helping people…who better than Spider Man to come to someone's rescue??? We had a new "Karen of the Day" who really doesn't like people using his driveway to turn around in. Elsewhere in sports, the Cubs aren't seeking any punishment for the fan involved in that viral slapping incident last weekend, the Norweigan Football Federation is lodging a formal complaint with FIFA in regards to President Trump's World Cup involvement, and a fan who jumped into a fountain in Kansas City to grab a home run ball gets an assist from the player who hit the dinger. Doc joined us just after 8am for today's Racing Report thanks to County Materials in Holmen & Eau Claire. And in today's edition of "Bad News with Happy Music", we had stories about a Sinclair gas station dinosaur that was recently stolen & moved to a more scenic location, a #FloridaMan who received over a kilo of cocaine in the mail, a woman in Tennessee who got arrested after she exposed herself during a traffic stop, a fight between a swimmer & a kite surfer that almost turned deadly, a search of a funeral home found a bucket filled with organs, a dead body was discovered in a donation box, and a former doctor in Washington state who hired a hitman to get his ex-wife addicted to heroin.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
