October is here, and if you’re a nerd like me, you love to "theme" your spooky season viewing. Last year, with the release of Hocus Pocus 2 and my reimagining of Häxan: Witchcraft Through the Ages, it was all about #SeasonOfTheWitch. This year, I’m diving into the depths of #FolkHorror, starting with a brilliant primer on the genre, Woodlands Dark & Days Bewitched: A History of Folk Horror. Horror documentaries are my go-to in Halloweentown, and this one hit the spot. 🤓🍿🖤
