Horror fans are passing around a petition to cast Bill Moseley (Devil’s Rejects, 3 From Hell) as the new Freddy Krueger. Before you ask, no, there aren’t any Nightmare on Elm projects currently in the works. This all started when Nick Younker created a petition to cast Moseley as Freddy after Moseley expressed interest in a future role if it was offered to him. As it turns out, the petition was created (by fan Nick Younker) in the wake of Moseley himself noting on Twitter that he’d love to play Freddy Krueger, if offered the role. I would love to,” Moseley stated nafter Younker asked him if he’d accept the role. Moseley was then asked if he’d give his approval if fans started a to campaign. Moseley replied “Fuck yeah! Younker’s petition, which has compiled over 100 signatures, states “We are a collective of social media users on Twitter that have weighed in on the casting of the new Fred

Every self-respecting horror fan has seen 1999’s The Blair Witch Project. But here’s something you might know, the ground-breaking film generated over 19 hours of usable footage. Blair Witch Project was edited down to only 90 minutes. For genre fans and fans of The Blair Witch Project’s unused footage is kind of a holy grail. During an interview with the Found Footage Files podcast Eduardo Sánchez, co-creator of The Blair Witch Project and executive producer of the up coming Blair Witch sequel, revealed that he wants to use the unseen footage.

One holiday stands above all others for horror fans, that’s right I’m talking about our beloved Halloween. But even after centuries of celebration (under one name or another), Halloween still doesn’t quite get the respect it deserves. It’s not even a federal holiday, and both you and I know that it deserves that honor and we deserve that day off to prepare and celebrate accordingly. Even if you only look at it from a financial stand point, Halloween brings in a ton of commerce, in 2015 alone, consumers spent around $6.9 billion in the US (according to useconoimy.about.com). Only Christmas brings in more. One fan of the holiday, Richard Doredant, has started a petition in an effort to get the White House to label the day as a federal holiday. If he can get 100,000 signatures by July 25th the White House will be forced to respond. So, to my fellow Halloween lovers I say this, let’s make sure that
