Update: The official Wes Craven twitter account has confirmed his passing.
Incredibly shocking and sad news as it’s being reported by multiple outlets that horror legend Wes Craven has passed away after a battle with brain cancer. He was 76 years old.
Wes Craven is known to the horror community for being the creator of Freddy Krueger of the A Nightmare On Elm Street series. He also brought us such classics as Last House On The Left, The Hills Have Eyes, The People Under The Stairs, Swamp Thing, the Scream films, and much more.
We send our deepest condolences to his friends and family.
I am in the process of writing a personal response to this terrible news. In the meantime, share your memories below. Let’s honor his name with stories of how he terrified us.

Sony returns to their own Marvel universe with the upcoming Kraven the Hunter, which has been bumped all over the release schedule. This week, it’s been bumped once more.
There was a time when Sony was going to unleash Kraven in theaters in October 2023, but the film was then bumped to August 2024. It’ll now release on December 13, 2024.
Kraven the Hunter will be the very first Marvel movie from Sony to be released into theaters with an “R” rating, with lots of bloody violence being promised.
Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the title character, Marvel’s ultimate predator.
“Kraven the Hunter is the visceral story about how and why one of Marvel’s most iconic villains came to be. Set before his notorious vendetta with Spider-Man, Aaron Taylor-Johnson stars as the titular character in the R-rated film.”
Ariana DeBose will play Calypso in the upcoming Kraven the Hunter movie.
Christopher Abbott (Possessor) is playing The Foreigner, with Levi Miller (Better Watch Out) also on board. Alessandro Nivola (The Many Saints of Newark) will play another villain, but character details are under wraps. Russell Crowe and Fred Hechinger also star.
J.C. Chandor (A Most Violent Year) is directing Kraven the Hunter.
The screenplay was written by Art Marcum & Matt Holloway and Richard Wenk.
