Rest in Peace, Dame Maggie Smith.
Today is the last weekend before the start of our annual Horrorthon so things are about to get very busy around here. Believe it or not, the whole reason I started doing these weeks in reviews was to help people navigate the site during the month of October. This has been a pretty rough year so I’m really looking forward to diving headfirst into the next 31 days. This is my favorite time of year! Last year, we posted over 600 Horrorthon articles. We’ll see what happens this year!
