Stalker in the Woods
Island Creep I moved to an island on Lake Michigan for the summer. It’s a touristy area and you can make decent money in the summer and my aunt owns a bar and grill and motel so I figured why not? I just went through a breakup after a six-year relationship and have been battling issues with depression and anxiety for over a year now so I figured this would be a nice change of scenery.

'Hereditary' and the Potential Beauty of Horror
It's no secret that modern day horror is often lacking in true artistic value, genuine passion, and sound motivation. More often than not, directors and producers use horror films as a vessel to secure ticket sales by the disposable income Gods that are the teenage demographic, who they assume (an often correct assumption) will buy tickets no matter the true quality of whatever they're seeing. And this is fine, I suppose–film is an industry in which many have money as some kind of goal. But the sad part of this is that horror has begun to lose its true value as a storytelling genre and medium of creativity. Sure, in the modern day we've had stunning horror such as 2014's The Babadook or 2016's Raw, all of which have received critical acclaim for their artistry and production. But it is an undeniable fact that for every Get Out, there are a dozen The Bye-Bye Mans, Truth or Dares, or rehashes of old films that had absolutely no need to be remade.

The Uninvited Visitor
It was early morning or late night, depending on your view. She had just turned the corner when she saw her step daughter. She knew she would come for her, such a sick and sadistic soul she was. Murder and death were the scent of her aura, if auras had a scent. A mix of dirty rain and hopelessness.

If you get in contact with them either by saliva or by blood you will get infected and eventually lose your humanity and try to kill and devour your loved ones. However, you will come to see that there are two types of zombies. Both are similar in that they have lost their humanity and all they want to do is snack on a brain, but both are different in ways involving the infection and virus itself, the traits of the two types of zombies, and the ways to kill them. This discussion will compare and contrast the two types of zombies.

Quest Factory: The Clinic
What’s up everyone? It's Dannis here covering the horrifying Clinic by Quest Factory. I have heard a few different things about this room, being that one: it is pretty scary, and two, it’s more of a walk through with a puzzle here and there. So I gave my team up to the demented doctor to find out what this place was all about. I just didn't think the doctor would take me too. However, before we get into the review, here are some details about the Clinic by Quest Factory.

Beautiful Nightmare Part 4
I really should have known better. But she had been so complacent, finally behaving after nearly 24 hours of torture, so I had let her down from the ceiling hook without bothering to knock her out first, intending to position her for my employer's imminent arrival. No sooner had her feet touched the floor did the bitch sock me right in the throat before bolting out of the bedroom.
