We’re Launching a Bloody-Disgusting Twitch Channel!
A few years back, Adam asked if there would be interest in Bloody-Disgusting having a Twitch channel, to which there was an enthusiastic response! Now, we’re ready to kick things off and we’re going to be taking our Bloody-Disgusting Twitch channel live on Saturday, September 17th!
Now, I’d like to take this opportunity to introduce you to the host of our Twitch channel, Mr. Bill Frye. Bill has been a very good friend of mine for over a decade and his love of horror and video games has been there his entire life. I’m 100% confident that you’re all going to have a blast watching him play through one horror game after another and engaging with him as well as everyone else who joins the Twitch stream. Give him a follow on Twitter so you can start chatting games!
As mentioned above, the first stream will take place on Saturday, September 17th from 1pm to 7pm EST. After that, we’ll have a regular schedule created for you to follow along. It won’t be every day but there will be a few streams each week!
Also, rather than Bill picking a game to kick things off, we wanted to hear your voices and thoughts. So we’ve created the below poll which gives you 10 different video games that you think Bill should start us off with! Head on down and make your choice!
Here’s where things get fun! During the stream, there will be random giveaways for some awesome prizes! All you’ll have to do is be present during the stream and participate at certain times and you’ll be entered to win. That’s it!
More news about the stream will be coming before the launch date, so keep your eyes peeled!

One of Clive Barker’s Final Convention Appearances Will Be at New Jersey’s Monster Mania in August
We told you earlier this month that horror legend Clive Barker is leaving the convention scene behind to focus entirely on his writing, with various upcoming projects in the works.
A series of final appearances from Barker will begin at Days of the Dead Chicago this month, and we’ve learned Barker will also be coming to Monster Mania in New Jersey.
Clive Barker will be signing at Monster Mania 59 in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, which runs from August 2 – August 4, 2024. Stay tuned for more info from the convention.
Barker’s official statement earlier this month explained, “… it’s time to focus entirely on writing. I’m not stopping public events because I’ve lost delight in meeting you all over the years. I’m as passionate as ever about sharing my imagination with readers and moviegoers around the world. In the very room where I’m writing these words, I have the manuscripts for a very large number of projects (Thirty-one of them), some very close to completion, others still telling themselves. There are some wild projects in this collection of works, whether close to finished or done. There are also stories that you all knew I would be finishing.”
“Abarat IV and V are amongst the books at my feet,” he continued. “So is the Third and final book of The Art and the sequel to The Thief of Always. There are also return visits to characters and mythologies you may have thought I would never return to.
“I hope I am still able to surprise you in the decades ahead.”
