[Exclusive] Stream Psyclon Nine’s New Single “Shadows Unveiled”
Bloody-Disgusting has teamed up with industrial metal heavyweights Psyclon Nine to bring you an exclusive first listen to “Shadows Unveiled”, which comes from the band’s upcoming album Order Of The Shadow: Act 1 (out November 12th via Metropolis Records). The track is a terrifying wall of evil noise pierced by demonic vocals, a mechanical apocalypse clawing its way into your subconsciousness and ripping it to shreds.
From Nero Bellum, “When writing Shadows Unveiled, I had intended to really bridge the gap in between our previous album, We the Fallen, and Order of the Shadow : Act I musically and thematically while setting up the concept of the entirety of Order. It essentially represents the convening of the titles namesake faction and the opening doctrine of the lead character “The Saint” as he divulges a new gospel unto his congregation. Musically, I wanted to encapsulate the elements that would allow this piece to become an apocalyptic prayer / war cry. All together, I wanted to create something that would be worth singing along to… A collective invocation of an end time.”
Head on down to listen to the track and be sure to pre-order your copy of Order Of The Shadow: Act 1 from Metropolis Records or pre-order an autographed copy here.

‘The Haunting of Pennhurst’ Exclusive Clip Trains Scare Actors For Historic Haunt in Tribeca Doc
The past and present collide in haunting, poignant ways in the genre documentary The Haunting of Pennhurst, which sees a Halloween haunt serve as a reclamation of true historic horrors.
Ahead of its world premiere at the 25th Tribeca Film Festival, we have an exclusive clip that sees scare actors in training for the Halloween season. The catch? This haunt is opening at the historic Pennhurst State School & Hospital site, a facility that caused immense harm to its disabled patients over decades of its operation.
In the documentary, “For over seventy years, Pennhurst State School & Hospital was called a place of care. What happened inside killed over half its population. It closed in 1987, leaving behind unmarked graves and an unresolved history. Today, on those same grounds, disabled performers – many living with the same conditions that once sent people to Pennhurst – put on their makeup, pull on their costumes, and prepare to scare people for a living.
“Through grit, compassion, and buckets of blood, the eclectic performers of the Pennhurst Asylum haunted attraction are wrestling with a space that is at once a lucrative business and a gravesite.”
The upcoming documentary hails from directing trio Nathan Stenberg, Mike Attie, and Katarina Poljak, who explore their socially-relevant subject through archival footage, first-hand accounts, and an immersive verité.
“Pennhurst has haunted us since we first passed through its dragon-tooth gates; the horrors of the institution echo through the site today. We are so grateful to bring this film to the Tribeca Festival, particularly the Escape from Tribeca section, which feels right for a story where past and present bleed together. We hope audiences leave unnerved and asking the same uncomfortable questions we did,” Attie, Stenberg, and Poljak said in a statement.
Watch the clip below that sees disabled and neurodivergent scare actors learning the ropes of a Halloween haunt, reclaiming the site’s grim history in the process.
