Belgian pop icon Kim Kay has never been particularly interested in playing it safe.

If you’ve spent any time in horror fandom, you know the genre has a long, beautiful history of blurring the line between fiction and reality. Blair Witch handed out missing-person flyers at Sundance.

Every year, everyone gets very excited about all of the creepy books there are to read at Halloween–and justifiably so. But the rest of fall deserves love, too!

Folklore and horror go together like blood and flesh. One cannot exist without the other. Stories were originally passed down by word of mouth, long before any written language existed.
