[Back this Campaign] Erebus Studios are working on Veil Fall, a miniatures board game from the dark future Veil Fall universe. The game, we’re told, is inspired by the computer games Dark Souls and Bloodborne. This means it’ll be hard. The Coalition has declined into civil war and some of those supporting the return of […]

How well do you know the monsters of Earth?
Think you know a thing or two about mankind’s mythology, monsters, legends and lore? Perhaps you do… but it is a large world out there and we’ve had hundreds of years to tell our stories. Are you brave enough to sit the test, answer some tough questions and find out? Did you do well? Questions […]
Poster: Alien
This remarkable poster is the work of Joshua Budich. It’s well worth checking out his site. Here’s an artist that’s born to illustrate. You can find him on Facebook and Instagram too. There’s plenty of art on the latter. A Xenomorph like this hanging on the wall of your gaming den is sure to be […]
Back from the Dead: A Review of Chill, 3rd Edition
Every long-time fan of tabletop role-playing has a game they consider amazing that slipped through the cracks, an unfortunate casualty in a hobby where only a few big names dominate the hobby’s attention. For many, that game was Chill, a horror RPG first released in the mid-80s. Overshadowed in the 80s by Call of Cthulhu, a second edition was released […]
Get your teeth into this: A review of Tokyo Ghoul
I was very happy when Tokyo Ghoul came to Netflix, I’d heard a lot about it but it had been proving to be challenging to stream legally in the UK. A geeky guy thinks he’s lucked out when a gorgeous and book loving girl takes a fancy to him. The twist? She’s a flesh hungry […]

This print is by UK horror legend Graham Humphreys. Humphreys is known for his film posters for the likes of The Evil Dead, Phenomena and Nightmare on Elm Street. This project takes the work of a painter to produce a screen print. There are only 300 in this 7-colour and 36 x 24 inch run. […]
Short film: Strange Thing
There’s always someone who wants to put their head in the mystery hole. I love that this couple are trekkies (with a Star Wars mug in there for good measure). The question is what you would do if you found a strange door you had never explored before? Strange Thing has a Facebook page for […]
Short film: Breathe
This is a short and effective supernatural horror. If one of the stars looks familiar then that’ll be Josef Altin who’s been in Game of Thrones. Directed by Toby Meakins, Breathe premièred at Film4 Frightfest and featured as part of the BFI Gothic Season. Tip: Click this teleport link and you’ll be taken over to […]
Elder (Good) Signs: A Double Review of the Call of Cthulhu Corebooks
Before “storygames” and “simulationist RPGs,” before “crunchy” and “fluff,” there was Call of Cthulhu and Dungeons & Dragons. D&D was all about facing down monsters, gaining wealth and power, and telling epic fantasy stories. CoC was all about avoiding monsters, staying alive and sane, and telling chilling horror stories. D&D had tons of rules and had roots in minature wargamming; […]

Darkraven Games‘s Cthulhu Fantasy and Horror music soundscape bundle asked for $12,000 in Kickstarter backing. They’ve crossed that line today and have over a week for any stretch goals.
