Star Trek: Discovery’s latest episode in its bite-sized Short Treks series doesn’t feature a fan-favorite character from the show like the previous installment did. But “Calypso” does have one familiar element—Discovery’s titular ship, though presented in a way we may never see again.

Halloween is over, and you’ve got a brief window of time before holiday-related activities take over all your free time. Now is the time to pounce on new books by George R.R.

When IFC’s Stan Against Evil premiered in 2016, it suffered a bit when compared to to Ash vs. Evil Dead. The two shows shared a similar premise, but only one had nearly four decades of horror history behind it. Today, though, Ash is off the air—and Stan has finally found its own groove.
Hocus Pocus has its moments, as do Coraline, Monsters Inc., and all the Harry Potter films.

Home alone, a young woman scrolls through vintage black-and-white films of 1920s dancers. It’s all flapper-filled fun until she lands on The Rizzle—also the name of Josh Tanner’s short film, made for Hulu’s Huluween Film Fest. The Rizzle, as you’ll see, is actually a very sinister blast from the past, cleverly…

Ghosts can be very scary—if you need recent evidence of this rather obvious fact, set aside several sleepless nights so you can watch The Haunting of Hill House.

Netflix has just shared the first trailer for Bird Box, an unsettling-looking horror thriller from director Susanne Bier (The Night Manager) with a screenplay by Arrival’s Eric Heisserer.

io9 got a peek at The Curse of La Llorona at San Diego Comic-Con—and now everyone else can join us in our excited (yet petrified) anticipation with the arrival of the film’s spooky first trailer.
