Some Japanese films are haunted by technology, others by the theater. Read @HauntedKevin's "A Theatre of Ghosts, A Haunted Cinema: The Japanese Gothic as Theatrical Tradition in Gurozuka" in the new Asian Gothic issue of The Wenshan Review. #openaccess wreview.org/index.php/curren…

My “Eaters of the Dead” is included on this excellent list of non fiction horror. Check it out for great suggestions.
I don't think we talk about non-fiction books in the horror genre enough so I wrote up a reading list for @Frightfulhorror! frightfulhorror.com/post/20-…
