This year the Corn Estate presents its scares with a brand new theme “The Best Little Corn House with Hexes.”  Once you enter the realm of the Thaddeus Corn and his evil family, you may never escape. Visitors must be careful to avoid the magical traps of the Queen of Fire, or they will be forced into Thaddeus Corn’s workforce of the undead, forever toiling away in the family mines. Dare you visit?



The Corn Estate is created each year by Russell Dreher and Charlie Quinn as a fundraiser.  Thousands of people pass through the doors of the Corn Estate each year.  Last year, the legend of Thaddeus Corn helped to earn Cornwall, NY the title of number one town in America for Trick or Treating!

Come find out why the Corn Estate is quickly becoming an annual tradition for our fans!

Murder Red Ink



"Murder Red Ink, is fast moving and the reader needs to think on their feet. Don't try and get ahead of the author because you can't do it."

"Wonderful novel, tantalizing plot and theories, and another great story from this author. Keep 'em coming!"

"Murder Red Ink delivered on plot and characters. This book was creepy and suspenseful. It will have you sleeping with the night light on. Looking forward to his followup work."

"This was my first Mord McGhee story, and I felt like I was missing a private joke to some extent. This is a gripping story that makes you ponder what you think you know about the Ripper. Now I gotta go back and read McGhee's other work."

"Parts of it are very creepy and disturbing. Kind of a Thomas Harris feel to them. I actually put the book down once with a shudder and walked away. Got a drink of water and came right back because I wanted to know what was going to happen next. No, I didn't just want to know... I HAD to know!"

So what's this creepy and disturbing book about...

JACK THE RIPPER: THE EXPERIENCE

Second novel by 2014 POYNTER'S GLOBAL EBOOK AWARD WINNING author MORD MCGHEE.

MURDER RED INK is nominee for reddit.com and critters.org Horror Novel of the Year and is a terrifying, stomach churning exploration into the 1888 Whitechapel serial killer known today as Jack the Ripper.  Everything you thought you knew about JACK THE RIPPER, JFK, and MODERN HISTORY is sliced from ear to ear by the twisted mind of this "refreshing author to watch!"

Something's gone wrong with PoltergeistG2. Erich is reliving the past, his sleep tormented by nightmares so real... so horrifying that he is willing to walk away and never look back. But the Ripper has other ideas. 

Allena's grandfather was a modern day monster responsible for killing the innocent and selling their organs on the black market. She wants nothing to do with him, but the Ripper has other ideas...

MURDER RED INK is a mind-bending sci-horror novel that gives a stunning voice to the past and shapes the future into something darker than the elder gods of H. P. Lovecraft or the Yellow King of Ambrose Bierce.

This is a must read…please click the pic and get your copy…

4 Year Anniversary!



August 14, 2009 will always be a special day for me. It was when I went from being a just horror fan watching horror movies to a participant in the world of horror. It was when I created HorrO’s Gory Reviews, and formally introduced myself to the horror world as HorrO. Go figure my first review wasn’t even a horror movie, but a sci-fi one (District 9). Hey, I was a rookie, plus I got to see the movie before its official release. I’ve gone from being a rookie to creating HorrO’s House of Horror, and couldn’t be happier about it. Now if you will bear with me for a little self-promotion, and some “thank-you’s.”


  I want to celebrate HorrO’s Gory Reviews’ 6-year anniversary by thanking all those who have taken the time to read at least one review. It means something to know someone has read your work. I certainly want to thank those who have been with me from the beginning because without you there might not have been even a second or third year anniversary.

  For those reading this at PromoteHorror.com and aren’t aware of my review blog, please take a minute and check it out. Besides reviews, it’s also a place for some other horror fun with pages like the ‘Horror on TV,’ ‘iPhone Horror Apps of the Month,’ and ‘Horror Item of the Week.’ Please feel free to follow me on Twitter under @Horrosreviews, and “Like” the Facebook page.


Not celebrating an anniversary is my second site: The Dog Days in Zombieville. This is the story I wrote and decided to make a Twitter story. The story was tweeted first, and then posted on the site. The Dog Days in Zombieville is the journal of Max Wagner, as he has documented his fight for survival in Zombieville. Honestly, with my time spent on promoting horror, I haven’t been able to finish the story. Max isn’t dead, and the story will continue at some point. For those who want to check it out, there are links on the site so that you can start reading from the beginning. Also, there are some other zombie related pages such as, ‘Zombie Pics,’ ‘Zombie iPhone Apps,’ and ‘Star Wars Zombies.’ If you want to follow the story on Twitter, you can find it under @ddnzombieville, and “Like” the Facebook page.


And now for the big one: the 4-year anniversary of PromoteHorror.com. Yes, HorrO’s Gory Reviews is older, but I say big one here because of the overwhelming support for PromoteHorror.com. It has been more than I could have ever imagined. With that said, I have to thank everyone who has requested a promotion, or as I like to call you “creators of horror.” The site wouldn’t exist without those requests. I continue to be amazed at how many creators of horror there are out there. Every time I think I’ve seen it all, someone gives me the opportunity to promote something I would never have thought of.

  Secondly, I have to thank all of the horror fans out there. The creators of horror need an audience, and you have provided that in a big way. Someone has to enjoy the promotions after all. I hope you all have found something to your liking. It’s truly an honor to see so many of you repeatedly visit the site, follow along on Twitter under @PromoteHorror, “Like” the Facebook page, and follow on Instagram.

  I never thought I would be here 4 years later. I also never thought PromoteHorror.com would help so many people. I honestly feel that if I walked away from it now I know I had some impact in the horror world even if it was small one. I don’t say that to be arrogant, but to prove to myself that I haven’t wasted my time. I know I helped someone make a movie. I know I helped someone sell a book. I know I helped someone get their project funded. I know I helped someone get their artwork seen. I know I helped get short films noticed. I know I helped podcasts get heard. That’s what “Spread the Horror” means when I repeatedly mention it.

  With 6 years of reviews and 4 years of promotions down, I’m eager to continue reviewing, and spreading the horror. I’m not sure what the future holds, but I will continue to do this as long as I can, and as long as the horror world will have me. From a creator of horror and horror fan myself; I truly appreciate the support, and all of the compliments that I’ve received. Like I said, this wouldn’t be anything without all of you great creators of horror, and the passionate horror fans out there. The compliments really go to you!

Thank you!!!
