All horror, all the time. Mostly film, but some books too. And random thoughts about fear, violence, and the art of storytelling. And the pleasure of a pop culture obsession.

Dear old horror hosts

This tribute, free on YouTube, is a little too long and reverent for my tastes. Still, it brings back some of my happiest television experiences ever.

Some of the hosts were very touching as they talked about how their framing stories and interruptions made it possible for children to watch horror without being overwhelmed or terrified.
