Our friends at Kansas City-based Downright Creepy just debuted a new podcast network for the strange and unusual. Launched on September 24th, the network now streams three bi-monthly podcasts including Creepcast, Black Magic Coven, and Super Creepy Funtime Hour (with more to follow). 

Tim KC Canton and Adam Roberts kick off their series with Creepcast, covering creepy news, with additional reviews and interviews. Black Magic Coven will focus on discussions of the paranormal, supernatural, and unsettling with spooky hosts including Austinite Marisa Mirabal (contributing writer for Birth.Movies.Death., Slashfilm, Fangoria, and Collider). Co-hosted by Jenius McGee (Kansas City Horror Club president and Nightmare Junkhead co-host), Super Creepy Funtime Hour tackles strange topics like joining a cult and alien abductions; hosts provide first-hand accounts of their experiences through dark humor and improv.

Established in 2009 by Canton, Downright Creepy is a genre website covering creepy news, games, and toys, as well as presenting editorial reviews. In 2013, Canton and Roberts co-founded Panic Fest, a festival celebrating horror, thriller, and sci-fi films. Voted by MovieMaker Magazine as one of the best genre fests in the world in 2018, 2019, and 2020, the multi-day event specializes in curated programming blocks, regional film premieres, and special talent appearances for new and repertory titles.
