Ghastly's Bloody Interviews
Collecting Horror on the High End – Carries Statues
As collectors ourselves, Ghastly and I always like to see other people’s collections and how they display them. Carmen Lazarom’s collection is amazing not just for what she collects, but how she displays her collection. The other cool thing about her and her collection is she lives in The Netherlands. We love to see great…

Grimmly's Reel Reviews
Attack of the Cat People – Making a Classic Horror Film Today
We love classic horror and sci-fi films here at The Haunted Cinema. Monster films from the 1950’s like The Creature from the Black Lagoon, Monster on the Campus, and I was a Teenage Frankenstein are some examples of the movies we enjoy. These films and others like them from the era were mostly, low budget,…
TRAGEDY GIRLS (2017)

Spookshow Sideshows: The Incredibly Strange Creatures Who Stopped Living and Became Mixed-Up Zombies (1964)
Many films that deal with carnivals and amusement parks—which have the word “amusement” right there in the name—will eventually run into the Paradox of Hedonism, the idea that the pursuit of pleasure is ultimately counterproductive, leading to less enjoyment than is found in more selfless or productive activities, and even a sense of emptiness. This…
Hellarious
Ghastly and I love Horror Anthologies. Any typical Halloween season will see us watching any number of them in The Haunted Cinema, however, just like any movie or anthology, some are great, and some are not so great. That can also be said of Horror-Comedies, when they work, they are amazing. Films like Abbot and…
Dead of Night
Anyone who knows me knows that I love British, Horror anthologies. Films such as Asylum, The House the Dripped Blood, and Trick R’ Treat, all get regular screenings here at The Haunted Cinema. I am such a fan, that I was fairly sure that I have seen them all, that was until Grimmly told me…
About The Haunted Cinema
The Haunted Cinema started out as a hobby website to display vintage cinema posters, but has grown into a review and interview hub for enthusiasts of the Horror/Sci-fi movie genres. Our content is in the same vein as old-school horror host greats such as Elvira & The Ghoul.
Meet the Team
Ghastly
Our Undead, rather, Head Usher. He keeps things running smoothly (mostly) in the cinema and makes sure that our guests are creepy and comfy.
Grimmly
Part Mad Scientist, part Mad Projectionist. He is responsible for the scares on the screen. He puts the “Haunted” in The Haunted Cinema.
Nosferella
From dusk till dawn (she’s allergic to sunlight), she handles all of our patron’s snack needs at our candy counter. She’s always looking for someone to stop by for a “bite”.
The Gallery
The Haunted Cinema is more than just movies. We also have a wonderful and spooky collection of posters, sculptures, masks, and more. We are passionate about the genre in all its forms and want to share that love with you. Check back often as there is always something new to see.
