For you wonderful ghouls that have been with us since the beginning, you'll remember the Stripe Was Right shirt design that never came to be... Well, now it's real and you can get one!
We'll be selling these shirts and HV posters at our live show! If you can't make it, we'll have the rest for sale after the show with Patreon subscribers getting the first chance to express their Lacanian Mogwai Mayhem!

Greetings ghouls!
We decided to de-list one of our episodes and leave it as a little bit of HV history for our supporters only!
A thousand years ago, when HV first started, we recorded a trolling of Troll 2 wherein we didn't really talk about Troll 2. The bit didn't quite work out and we wound up recording a real Troll 2 episode years later. So, here's the original Troll 2 weird episode thing for your enjoyment.
in celebration of our upcoming 200th episode, we're cleaning up the crypt. Here's a little sneak peak at some cool new designs created by our ghoulish friend Paul Scanty who you can find on Twitter here.
There's a few more heading our way...

We're revving up our engines to talk about cars, the body, and the horror of intimacy!
We head to our local witch cult to discuss the new documentary: Woodlands Dark and Days Bewitched!
We both absolutely loved Prano Bailey-Bond's 2021 film: Censor and, in proper HV fashion, we rarely cover things when they are recent news! If you missed Censor when it came out, it's more than worth checking out!
Returning HV champion John Leavitt is back in the crypt to discuss Little Shop of Horrors and Rick Moranis-core!

As it turns out, the mysterious space rocks taste like snozzberries.
Your Ghosts left the crypt to haunt the cursed Monster Energy factory headquartered by All Gamers Are Bastards! We talked about Death Stranding, friendship, and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater.
Please enjoy.

It's a new year so, here's a new episode! Why not start things off with a BANG and discuss the gothic text that is THE INSANE CLOWN POSSE!
We've got a whole new series of book reviews coming out over the next year. We got in touch with University of Wales Press and now we're covering their Gothic and Horror Studies catalogue. We're hoping to share some of the cutting-edge work in these fields with all you wonderful ghouls.
Some of these reviews are going to be episodes and others will be written reviews hosted here and on our websites.
We're kicking things off with Bridget M. Marshall's Industrial Gothic...
