We've got another one out from @salemhorrorfest.bsky.social and I am full of FOMO because I haven't been since 2023. Read about Pater Noster and the Mission of Light from @brownreclusedalia.bsky.social horrormovieblog.com/pater-noster...

Thank you to everyone who came out for Salem Horror Fest 8’s opening night! And thank you to @tananarivedue.bsky.social @ashleylaurence.bsky.social @xghorror.bsky.social @necromandrea.bsky.social It was an amazing night!

The keynote speech about “the horror within” by @tananarivedue.bsky.social at @salemhorrorfest.bsky.social was fantastic, as was her follow-up conversation with @xghorror.bsky.social. (This is the only picture I managed to take last night.)

Rewatching Session 9 as part of @salemhorrorfest.bsky.social last night, I was reminded of this epic line delivery by Caruso that my friends and I quoted for years.

MovieJawn is on location at @horrorarts.bsky.social’s @salemhorrorfest.bsky.social - follow our staffers for updates, @katespenser.bsky.social, @murphofilmo.bsky.social, and @rosaliekicks.com. Here’s what we are watching… #salemhorrorfest

Come say hi to me and @katespenser.bsky.social at this year’s @salemhorrorfest.bsky.social

We’re just over a week away from Salem Horror Fest 8! Tickets for the VIP Experience with Ashley Laurence are almost gone. #horror #hellraiser #salemmassachusetts

Pater Noster named as the 2025 feature film recipient for the GEORGE A ROMERO FELLOWSHIP by the The George A. Romero Foundation and @salemhorrorfest.bsky.social. This is a humbling honor - My parents first date was NOTLD at the Drive-in, so if it weren't for Mr. Romero I might not be here at all.

Thanks to @ruemorguemag.bsky.social for this fantastic article!

If you tried to purchase tickets in the last few hours and found the page locked, we apologize for that. We had a technical glitch but it’s fixed now!
