Over at DreadXP on Halloween, there was a cavalcade of indie horror games on display during its Spooky Showcase event presented by Torple Dook, doing his delightfully bizarre spin on Blues Clues; Chips Tips.

Michael Myers’ adventures in murdering babysitters have certainly changed since his silent and disturbing introduction in 1978. While John Carpenter introduced us to a more subdued yet equally terrifying Shape in his first film, the series would soon transform the white-masked menace into something more.

A single leaf, painted with diminishing hues of brown, red and orange clings to its branch for a moment before detaching in the wind and becoming another passenger of the fall season’s blustery channels.

Horror and science fiction have always been a part of the television canvas, and constant attempts have been made over the years to produce classic entertainment.

Shin Megami Tensei V is the latest entry in the Shin Megami Tensei franchise coming to Nintendo Switch on November 11.
