Episode description
Happiest of Holidays to you!
Just in time for Christmas Eve is the Hellbent for Horror Annual Christmas Ghost Story!
Keeping the old British tradition going, I've been reading ghost stories for Christmas over the last few years. Because Christmas and horror go together like cookies and milk and Santa!
This year's story is M.R. James' "Casting the Runes," which is the story that was adapted into the excellent 1957 film directed by Jacques Tournier, Night of the Demon, released as Curse of the Demon in the USA.
Enjoy the show, and stay safe and spooky into 2023!
