The Edgar Allen Poe Speakeasy is touring select cities in the US from California through North Carolina. The Edgar Allan Poe Speakeasy is a chilling 90-minute cocktail experience dedicated to the stories of Edgar Allan Poe. The event occurs inside a dark speakeasy as four of Poe's most famous stories will be retold and reimagined by Poe historians. The speakeasy's lead mixologist will also transform each story into a 4-part cocktail experience. Tickets range in price from $45 - $69, depending on the dates/locations.
Have you ever wondered what becoming a monster for Halloween Horror Nights is like? Now you can find out. Universal Orlando now offers The "Monster Makeover: Become the Monster!" experience. This makeover-style experience allows guests to choose from 38 monster designs, then the makeup is applied by one of Universal's makeup professionals - the same artists that create the monsters for Halloween Horror Nights.
Halloween Creep continues as Tokyo Disneyland announced the dates for their Halloween season at the park. Disney Halloween will run from October 1st - November 7th. The company teased that there will be new theming and entertainment, with specifics to be announced in the coming months.
Distortions Unlimited announced four all-new Halloween props for the 2024 season. The Scare Wolf Legend, The 3-foot long sci-fi-inspired Alien Spider, The Scarecrow Wrath and the Wicked Witch Legend – which is fashioned after a classic green, old, and gnarled witch standing 5.5 feet tall. Made of latex, foam filled, and including an armature, the prop includes posable arms, a bendable neck, and a detachable hat.
Beetlejuice 2's official poster released and reveals the sequel's name: Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. The long-awaited sequel has a September 6th, 2024 release date. Tim Burton is at the helm as director, and several of the original film's stars have signed on to reprise their roles - including Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, and Catherine O'Hara.
Jagged Edge Productions, the filmmakers behind Winnie the Pooh: Blood and Honey, plan to expand their public domain horror universe with the upcoming movie Peter Pan's Neverland Nightmare. A recent article on the Bloody Disgusting website shared a new teaser sketch image. Director Scott Jeffrey said "The film will be incredibly tense following Wendy as she tries to track down her brother, Michael, who has been abducted by Peter Pan. I would say it’s a mesh between Switchblade Romance and The Black Phone with our own spin on it. It is a nasty, violent and incredibly dark movie... Tinkerbell is not what you think." Filming is expected to start in May with a planned Halloween 2024 theatrical release.
Haunt (2019) is now streaming on Netflix. Written and directed by Scott Beck & Bryan Woods, the film follows a group of friends who encounter an extreme haunted house on Halloween night that promises to feed on their darkest fears. The night turns deadly as they come to the horrifying realization that some nightmares are real.
