Don’t Fuck With The Original

Tonight is another interview that is not from Horrorhound but Horrorhound related, thank you to The Barrens Hideout Podcast, and it is with the producer and actor of the Hellhouse LLC franchise, Joe Bandelli!

One found footage franchise we all love, including Joe, is Paranormal Activity and if you haven't done so, check out Joe's documentary Unknown Dimension: The Story of Paranormal Activity. His other upcoming film, with Jessica Rothe coincidentally, is called Imposters and should be in theaters by the end of the year.   'Salem's Secret' by Peter Gundry   Merchandise: https://dfwtopodcast.creator-spring.com/   Sponsored by:   Dietsmoke.com - use promo code DFWTO for 50% off your purchase Nourish - usenourish.com #NourishAffiliate Betterhelp: Visit betterhelp.com/dfwto to get 10% off when you sign up for your first month.

Part 6 in our "WTF was that Ending?" series is all about the 2005 Michael Keaton paranormal thriller White Noise, which is currently for rent or purchase on Amazon Prime. This movie had a very promising premise: a man loses his wife and starts to receive EVPs (electronic voice phenomenas) aka white noise with what sounds like his wife's voice, but that's not the only voice he pulls through; unfortunately, the ending fell flat. This is where we come in & re-write the ending once, twice or maybe more to fit the story just a tad bit better, if we do say so ourselves. Do you like the ending? If not, how would you change it?   'Salem's Secret' by Peter Gundry   Merchandise: https://dfwtopodcast.creator-spring.com/   Sponsored by:   Dietsmoke.com - use promo code DFWTO for 50% off your purchase Nourish - usenourish.com #NourishAffiliate Betterhelp: Visit betterhelp.com/dfwto to get 10% off when you sign up for your first month.

Everyone has heard of the Bermuda Triangle, but most are unfamiliar with the Alaska Triangle. Covering most of the state from the cities Anchorage, Juneau, and Utqiagvik, this area consists of very dense forest and hidden caves that could make it very easy for people to go missing. Reportedly 20,000 people, most notable US Congressman Nick Begich and US Majority Leader Hale Boggs, have gone missing over the Alaska Triangle, which has been linked to paranormal &/or extraterrestrial activity. Are there rational explanations for these disappearances or is it something else that's unexplained?   'Salem's Secret' by Peter Gundry   Merchandise: https://dfwtopodcast.creator-spring.com/   Sponsored by:   Dietsmoke.com - use promo code DFWTO for 50% off your purchase Nourish - usenourish.com #NourishAffiliate Betterhelp: Visit betterhelp.com/dfwto to get 10% off when you sign up for your first month.

"Toothsome" tackles forbidden, eternal love with a twist.

A Christmas Murder in Scotland. Was this self defense or something more sinister? Melissa Young in December of 2013 claimed she killed Alan Williamson because he would not leave her home. When her story was not lining up with authorities, she changed it by stating she was under "demonic possession" and also upset Alan, her apartment neighbor for many years, did not like the Christmas gifts she had given him. Was Melissa really possessed at the time or did a mixture of drugs and mental illness have something more to do it with it?

It's that time of year guys! Back from a long break here to bring you all things spooky...holiday style. Kicking off this festive month, we have tonight's episode which is Horror Movies with Christmas themes, not Christmas Horror movies.

In non-horror terms, think more Batman Returns, less Home Alone: one is set at Christmas, the other is about Christmas. Tonight should be a fun one!

Paige Renkoski at age 30 went missing May of 1990 after her car was found abandoned on the side of a highway in Michigan. Her missing cold case is one of the longest running in Michigan history.
