WARNING - graphic and potentially upsetting subject matter afoot.

But sure isn't that the main appeal of being a horror fan? The first video of Halloween season will look at a particular subgenre I've become obsessed with in the past few years.

Folk Horror had its heyday in the 60s and 70s, though it is experiencing something of a revival (see Netflix's 'Chilling Adventures of Sabrina'). I'll be taking a look at some notable examples that jumped out to me.
