Aidan, The Boy Who Draws Monsters, Is Now Cancer-Free

Back in October of 2010, we posted a story about Aidan, a 5-year-old boy who was diagnosed with leukemia. To help pass the time while Aidan was in the hospital, he often was busy drawing and coloring, especially various monsters. To help raise money for hospital bills, Aidan’s drawings of monsters were put on Etsy with a goal of selling 60 prints. The internet found out about the story and rallied, ultimately purchasing thousands of prints and saving the family huge amounts of financial stress.

Yesterday, some amazing news came through as doctors have declared that Aidan is officially cancer free! We are thrilled to hear about this news and wish Aidan a long, happy, successful life full of joy.

Bloody Disgusting has learned this week that Caroline Williams (Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2) has joined the cast of He Sees You When You’re Sleeping, a Christmas slasher slated to be released this holiday season by The Horror Collective.

In the upcoming slasher, a young man’s Christmas homecoming turns into a nightmare as a killer in a Santa suit gruesomely picks off his estranged, wealthy family for their fortune.

Williams is joined by Nicholas Vince, known for his role in the original Hellraiser, as well as David Lenik (An English Haunting), Peyton Michelle Edwards (Goodbye Honey), and Lauren Marie-Taylor (Friday the 13th Part 2).

Director/Producer Charlie Steeds said in a statement, “I knew David Lenik’s campy Christmas-themed slasher would be a blast to direct. It’s set in the ’80s and we filmed on location in New York State. The script draws inspiration from horror classics such as Black Christmas, Scream and Silent Night, Deadly Night which are all films I adore.”

“Christmas horror films blend holiday cheer with thrilling chills, offering a fresh and exciting twist on traditional celebrations. They’re perfect for those looking to spice up their holiday viewing,” commented Shaked Berenson, CEO of The Horror Collective’s partner company, Entertainment Squad.

The Horror Collective is the genre label of Entertainment Squad, a finance and distribution company founded by veteran producer Shaked Berenson (Turbo Kid, Tales of Halloween). The labels’ latest productions include the killer-pants cult classic Slaxx (Shudder Original) and the critically acclaimed LGBTQ+ horror-comedy Summoning Sylvia.
