“Hello Horror” Survives the ‘Halloween Kills’ Interactive Experience “Haddonfield Kills: The Hunt for Michael” at Universal Studios Hollywood [Video]
This past Tuesday, Oct. 5, Hello Horror‘s Vanessa Decker and Ryan Valdez attended an insanely cool event in Los Angeles, “Haddonfield Kills: The Hunt for Michael”, in which Universal Studios transformed their backlot into the town of Haddonfield.
To promote the forthcoming Halloween Kills, guests were transported to Haddonfield where an angry mob hunts down Michael Myers before he kills again. This looked like an incredible experience.
Check out full episodes of Hello Horror on Bloody Disgusting TV, and Halloween Kills in theaters and on Peacock Oct. 15.

‘The Blob’ and ‘Dream Warriors’ Filmmaker Chuck Russell Has Passed Away at 74
All of us here at Bloody Disgusting are deeply sad to learn that The Blob director Chuck Russell has passed away at 74 years old.
Russell’s career began with his directorial debut, 1987’s A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors.
The multihyphenate film director, screenwriter, and producer is best known for helming 1994 comedy The Mask starring Jim Carrey, Arnold Schwarzenegger actioner Eraser, and adventure spinoff The Scorpion King. The latter served as the first leading role for Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.
The filmmaker left an indelible mark on horror with his ANOES sequel, 1988’s The Blob, and 2000’s Bless the Child.
Russell’s final film credit is 2024’s Witchboard remake starring Madison Iseman (I Know What You Did Last Summer), Aaron Dominguez (Only Murders in the Building), and Jamie Campbell Bower (“Stranger Things”).
It marked Russell’s return to horror after a lengthy hiatus, and he shared sequel hopes to Bloody Disgusting in an interview ahead of the remake’s release: “I got to design the board with real mystical symbols and things that I know represent good and evil, and where that board takes us if the audiences respond to the film, and I hope they will; I know it’s out there for you guys, but the sequel is a world we’ll get to go a little further. That’s sure the intention.”
He also recently expressed interest in returning to the franchise that began his career.
TMZ notes that Russell passed away at his San Diego-area home.
We send our deepest condolences to Chuck Russell’s family, friends, and fans.
