Oops! I missed that! But I googled to see if I was right and the monster things from The Langoliers are so weird looking!

Good job, Kayla! There are theories that the supernatural elements of The Shining are just hallucinations, but since there's no confirmation of that, Misery is the only one of these that's not considered supernatural horror. Carrie is on her way to you : - )

PSYCHOLOGICAL NIGHT: PSYCHO

Today's feature is Psycho! This legendary 1960 film takes place in Bates Motel, where people come to stay ... but they don't always leave.

Today's hexie, the flashy Norma, would love to come home with the first person to correctly answer this trivia question:

Last week, I said that the first Saw movie is less gory than the rest of them. What genre are the rest?

A. Slasher, B. Zombie film, C. Splatter film, D. Trick question- the rest are also psychological horror

[Bec]

I will say D. Psychological horror
-Bec-

It looks like nobody could claim Norma this week! The answer I was looking for was C- Splatter film, a subgenre of horror characterized by excessive gore- or just the right amount of gore, depending on who you ask! Worry not, though; you'll have another chance to meet Norma on next week's psychological horror night.

HOWEVER, in light of this, I've also changed the hexie-per-person limit to one per week rather than measuring by days, so if you got any of last week's Petz, feel free to try again now!

MONSTER MOVIE NIGHT - NOSFERATU

Today's feature is Nosferatu! This loose adaptation of Dracula regards a vampire who preys on the wife of his estate agent and brings a plague to his small German town.

Today's hexie, the beastly Count Orlok, would love to come home with the first person to correctly answer this trivia question:

Which of these folkloric creatures is similar to a vampire?

A. Mana'nang'gal, B. Estrie, C. dhampir, D. all of the above

[CozyKitt]

All of the above <3 pretty much every culture has a "vampire" in their folklore, with of course many differences that make each unique. Like Kuei Jin (a personal fave) from Asia, which drain life force vs blood. {I could ramble about vampires for hours sorry}

[EmMerry Christmas]

I have absolutely NO idea, but fractal kitty is so pretty I have to make a guess, just in case, so I'm going to guess Mana'nang'gal.

Good job, Kitt! I'd elaborate on it, but your comment does it way better than I ever could. The Count is on his way to you : - )
