I Am Monsters!
A FrightFest favourite guest and one of the UK's shining beacons in the queer horror scene is actor/director Nicholas Vince. Most well known for his debut role as the Chatterer in Clive Barker's HELLRAISER and Kinski (Moon Face) in the cult shocker NIGHTBREED, Vince took to the stage in 2019 with his autobiographical one-man-show ‘I Am Monsters!’ Both a resoundingly nostalgic and relatable tale of growing up in love with horror and an essential discourse on the turmoil of 'growing up gay' under draconian Thatcherian rule where the closet was always safest, this is the superb movie adaptation.

At home, I look up the address: Manuel José Othón, corner of San Antonio Abad. I find a photo of the monument and these words: "Topeka, large garment factory, employed hundreds of women." And then: "Bronze statue at site of collapsed factory."

The Mummy
The name alone invokes a senso of fear. But what is a mummy? When a human's soft tissues and organs have been preserved by either intentional (anthropogenic) or accidental (spontaneous) exposure to chemicals, extreme cold, very low humidity, or lack of air, the recovered body does not decay further if kept in cool and dry conditions. Self-mummification was practiced until the late 1800s in Japan where monks whose bodies remain incorrupt without any traces of deliberate mummification are venerated by Buddhists. Join us for a fascinating and frightful journey into the mystery of The Mummy.
