"Shipp’s sharp prose forces us to engage with the pain of alienation, the yearning for connection, the risks of intimacy, and the vertigo one suffers in a world in which everyone (and everything) can’t be taken at face value. What a ride!" – Nicole Cushing, author of Mothwoman...

My horror rec of the day is The Haunting (1963), a beautifully atmospheric adaptation of Shirley Jackson’s The Haunting of Hill House. The film is complex and restrained and saturated with queer subtext. https://t.co/ApqS0rI3wa https://t.co/0H0qtCVYzo

My horror movie rec of the day is THE EXORCIST III. We all know that The Exorcist is a brilliant film, but this one deserves some love as well. The film is creepy and thought-provoking. William Peter Blatty wrote and directed this one. https://t.co/1CMJW2ZiRh
