I Love Art and I Refuse to Feel Guilty About It

I’ve been putting off writing this article for over a year now, mostly out of just not wanting to poke the bear. My general attitude about subjects to stay away from, is if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. I’ve remained silent on this topic for a while, ignoring

Supernatural Has the Best Fans 🧡

At first glance, Supernatural appears to be nothing more than a soap opera for men, or just another cheesy CW drama for teenagers. And for years, that was my assumption, rolling my eyes whenever I skipped past it. But a few years ago, I must have just been in a mood to try something new,

Let’s Talk About Violence

Like most of you in the horror community, I absolutely love simulated violence in movies and games. It’s fun, I think it’s actually healthy, and I make no apologies about it. Real violence of any kind, however, makes me sick to my stomach. Many sports like football and boxing certainly have their criticism, especially concerning

Petition for a New JAWS Ride

As many of you probably know by now, the JAWS ride was retired back in 2012. It was very sad, especially for those of us that never got to ride it. Although it’s been 7 years already since the ride was dismantled, a Twitter user, @BringBackJaws, has started making a bit of a ruckus about

Bill Rebane and His Shooting Ranch

Gleason, Wisconsin has a population of roughly 200 people and growing up, I was one of them. It’s a town where the family farm still struggles to survive and you have to make the 15-mile trip into the “city” for groceries and school. In short, it’s not an area people generally move to. But a

Pre-order the WNUF Halloween Special Sequel Now!

If you never saw the first WNUF Halloween Special, remedy that immediately (or we’ll revoke your Halloween fan card): Watch on Amazon (it was available on Netflix and Shudder previously, but Amazon is the easiest remaining option now) Then, after you finish watching it and inevitably love it, or if you were already a fan

Why I Created Halloween Love in a November

The first time I ever published on Halloween Love was nearly a decade ago now, on November 11th, 2009, and I only registered the halloweenlove.com domain just a few days before that. But, why? Why in November? Why didn’t I create it in the more relevant month of October, that was just one month earlier?

#SpookyStoryChain No. 1: “Sara’s Best Friend”

“Oh fuck, no, shit, shit…” Sara mumbled to herself, more out of concern for her own safety than for that of the dog she’d just ran over. To be fair, this wasn’t a part of the city you’d want to get out of your car in. A man approached offering help, startling her, and she

Ask for Donations, or Die Trying? $♥️

I have always had super-duper mixed feelings about donations, and have discussed that in the past here on HL. I don’t have an issue with donations, in and of themselves; I’ve happily made donations; I’ve happily accepted donations. It’s the asking or being asked part that gives me a bit of an icky feeling. Until
