Happy Halloween season everyone! The horror genre has been exploding on the big screen and we would argue, these days, there’s a horror movie for everyone. Do you love a horror comedy? Think ‘The Blackening’ or ‘Hell Of A Summer.’ Or do you prefer a supernatural horror, Sci-Fi Horror, or how about a creature-feature, like ‘Jaws’? We are going to spend the next four weekends leading up to Halloween revealing our favorite SUB-genres of horror movies, and giving you our top picks for each to get you in the spirit. There’s actual science behind why horror movies can be good for anxiety and we’ve got you covered for the rest of October!

56-year-old Curtis Flowers has died just a few years after being released from death row and exonerated by the state of Mississippi. Flowers was tried six times by the same prosecutor and spent more than 2 decades behind bars for a quadruple murder he did not commit. It was a podcast, and ultimately the Supreme Court of the United States that set Flowers free after 23 years of protesting his innocence. We go over the astonishing details of his case and how he held onto hope that one day he’d be exonerated.

After Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth announced the public would be able to watch a firing squad execute Fort Hood mass killer Nidal Hasan, the Pentagon got specific, saying the execution would be live-streamed. Hassan’s planned, public execution is scheduled for December 3rd at 1pm, on the same day of the week and the same time Hasan killed 13 and wounded 30 others back in 2009. Hasan was wounded in the attack and is paralyzed, and there are many questions about the legality and morality of a public execution. The execution by firing squad would be the first of its kind carried out by the Army since World War II.

After an hours long manhunt, 22-year-old Ryan Hanafin is in custody and believed to be responsible for shooting and killing his own mother. Hanafin was arrested after his father found his wife, 49-year-old Andria in the kitchen, dead. Their 13-year-old son was unharmed inside the home, and their older daughter was away at college, but Ryan was missing along with his vehicle. Police tracked Ryan down in Vermont and he’s expected to face murder charges when he faces a judge later this afternoon. This is the first murder in Reading, Massachusetts in more than a decade.
