Introduction

You’re here to learn about Halloween Horror Blog and who we are. We are like you. That is, if you’re a Halloween and/or Horror fanatic.

We understand that horror fans actually see horror as a comfort and a therapy when dealing with the true horrors and difficulties that cause anxiety and stress.

Horror is a release, and so we feature Horror movies & Horror Game Reviews, and Horror News.

We are passionate about horror movies and trivia, and we wear the badge of #MutantFam nerds with honour.

Please notify us in the comments and provide a source for the information so we can accurately fix our listings.

We use the JustWatch service to bring Where to Stream options. If you find errors, please comment, and we can contact JustWatch, time permitting, or contact JustWatch via JustWatch.com. Also, check out the JustWatch mobile app.

We use cool AI technologies and a bunch of free movie database APIs like TMDb to keep our Horror Movie Reviews updated. We know mistakes can happen, so we always try to add a personal touch with some human help.

about Halloween Horror Blog / What’s New?

  • 04/09/2025 – We’re busy filling up the Store with some killer Horror and Halloween merch! The Autoposter is doing its thing (shoutout to AI), and we check out the products before they hit the store. Just a heads-up, we don’t ship or store products; we just point you to the sellers. Check our disclaimer at the bottom of all pages.
  • 09/09/2025 – Gave the store a little makeover since it’s growing – added some cool custom search options and a search box along with some sub-categories.
  • 11/09/2025 – We’ve got 2 t-shirts available on Fourthwall!!
  • 16/09/2025 – Tweaked the product autoposter to create better article posts.
  • 23/09/2025 – Made a neat script using RestAPI that likes posts about Halloween or Horror to bump up our reach and network.
  • 23/09/2025 – We’re using make.com to automate some social media posts with RSS as the trigger and pushing them to Google Search Console.
  • 23/09/2025 – Took out the product metadata from the posting script because it was buggy and could mess with SEO in the long run if left in. Plus, I fine-tuned some of the AI and post structure for product listings.
  • 20/09/2025 – Gemini 1.5 is outta here – AI Logic for post generation is now upgraded to 2.5, and I’m still proofreading and tweaking posts manually.
  • 03/10/2025 – Working on building up our presence on Bluesky with automated likes for horror and Halloween using their API. AI is helping me whip up some scripts.
  • 03/10/2025 – We snagged a one-year subscription plus a domain on wordpress.com / halloweenhorror.blog, linked it all to Google, and are using YoastSEO with AI to boost our SEO. The site is getting some serious traffic now (we dropped Yoast).
  • 03/10/2025 – Automated follows and likes on Tumblr with a Python script running several times a day. Plus, I’m sharing horror content on Halloween / horror is a lifestyle to draw traffic back here.
  • 03/10/2025 – Sovrn poster to Bluesky via API is set up, just waiting on Sovrn to okay the site URL for my BlueSky (not sure if this is happening).
  • 09/10/2025 – Added a top bar and switched the SEO Plugin to something simpler and more effective.
  • 01/12/2025 – Happy Advent! We’re diving into the Horror of Christmas, adding some cool gift ideas to the store, and taking down Halloween 2025-related products. The poster is looking way better now, pulling in featured images from TMDB using an API, and using the JustWatch API for current streaming options on movies we’re talking about.
  • 23/12/2025 – Merry Christmas I’ve been improving the poster with a new version using the TMDB API for more accurate info, but I’ve noticed TMDB data can be a bit outdated. So, we’re using the updated Gemini (V3) article generator with more accurate language for factual info. I’m also being super careful about fact-checking and SEO, plus revisiting some older posts. Getting everything optimized for SEO, and I’m slowly but surely seeing growth.
  • 06/01/2026 – Happy New Year – Working on the SEO for categories, adding a cobwebs channel (YT) playlist to the post feed, and integrating it into the blog. I really dig his content and think we could help each other out to put out awesome horror stuff. Tried to connect with him in the comments, but he’s busy. Let him know how you found his content in the comments so we can team up and grow the love for horror! (I’ve got all the posts in their own Category, so it’s easy to take down if needed.)
  • 06/01/2026 – Front page change – So, in the hunt for a way to get posts featured on MSN’s front page, I chatted with AI and realized my front page format (which was just a wall of images) wasn’t cutting it for Aggregators and crawlers to see the site for what it is. Gotta make it easier for people to discover us!
  • 13/01/2026 – Tweaking some page settings for SEO. I think the site’s in a good spot! I’m populating the store with more niche physical media, learning heaps about movies I never knew, and making some awesome friends through my passion for Horror. Good growth all around!
  • 27/01/2026 – Been thinking a lot about usability and navigation. Decided to switch things up and make the front page show just the latest posts so people can search or browse from there.
  • 27/01/2026 – It’s a constant struggle to add fresh content, keep everything factual, and grow the site. I really appreciate all the support from those who’ve pointed out inaccuracies! AI can get a bit too creative with posts sometimes.
  • 13/06/2026 – Lots of new stuff! The front page is simpler now for faster load times and acts more like a search engine. AI Posters are way better now, and I’m using VS Code to whip up some plugins that do things other plugins can’t or are too bloated. Just trying to keep the site fast and helpful.
  • 20/06/2026 – I was checking out a new theme and switched from Neve to another one, but then WP.com (where I’m a Premium user) said I needed to upgrade my plan to reactivate Neve!!!
  • Dropping the store and focusing more on targeted product placements, or maybe some ad placements, or even both!
  • Homebrew plugin that uses AI to fact-check and update posts with developing news. Still in testing phase.
  • The store category has been discontinued, as it was adversely affecting search engine optimization. The focus will now be on creating more posts related to films that highlight physical media options, rather than conducting generalized promotional blasts for a store.

Future and current Work in progress:
