Here’s How to Defend Your Home From Different Monsters [Halloween Treat]
One of the most delicious yet awful feelings is when you finish watching a horror movie and then suddenly you realize you don’t feel safe in your own house. I can’t count the number of times I’ve watching something only to realize once the credits began to roll that every dark corner potentially held a creature that wanted to take my life.
Yes, rationally speaking I fully understood that this couldn’t be the case. There aren’t monsters and even if there are they are almost certainly not interested in someone like me. But that doesn’t stop the feeling from manifesting itself and refusing to let go…at least for that night. So what am I supposed to do to make myself feel better? Or, at the very least, to feel the slightest bit safer?
The folk over at ForRent have thought about this very problem and have put together an interesting infographic that takes some of horror’s most iconic villains and lays out some suggestions on how to ensure they don’t disturb your place of residence. Do you agree with their methods or are they forgetting something? Let us know in the comments!

We have an exclusive first look at A Man in the Woods With an Axe, a blood-soaked, genre-twisting homage to 1980s slasher films.
Spanning four decades, A Man in the Woods With an Axe begins in the summer of 1987 before pushing into the modern era, weaving together timelines and perspectives in a way that builds both dread and intrigue.
Drawing inspiration from genre standouts like Tucker and Dale vs. Evil, Hatchet, and The Cabin in the Woods, the film blends visceral horror with moments of dark humor, creating a uniquely balanced experience that honors tradition while carving its own identity.
Writer-director Dillon Brown (Primal Darkness) aims to deliver everything fans crave from a slasher while boldly subverting expectations with a mid-film twist that redefines the story.
“This is an unapologetic love letter to the films that made me fall in love with horror,” Brown tells Bloody Disgusting. “But I didn’t just want to recreate that feeling; I wanted to challenge it. About halfway through, the film takes a turn that completely changes how you view not only this story, but the genre itself.”
Brown describes the vintage-inspired production as “far and away the bloodiest film I’ve ever made,” with practical effects helmed by Cody Ruch (The Mill, Pig Hill), an instructor at Tom Savini’s Special Make-Up Effects Program.
From Horror Dadz Productions, A Man in the Woods With an Axe is currently in production and targeting an early 2027 release.
