Horror movies promise an experience that would be dreadful outside a theatre. Richard Crouse offers a way into their strange appeal, even while admitting The Exorcist frightened him for months after he saw it too young.

Canada supplies a particularly unsettling invitation: a zombie outbreak heard from inside a radio station. Pontypool keeps the action outside, but Richard won't give away its twist. Alongside a cursed mask and a Cape Breton slasher, it raises another question: how much does a movie actually need to show?

Then Dracula, Frankenstein, the werewolf, and the mummy get a different assignment. Four monster-inspired cocktails turn the classic horror lineup into something pourable, complete with a bleeding effect, an edible garnish, and a little theatrical smoke.
