It’s also exciting to share my personal top records with you all through Haunted Riffs! This column has been a real joy for me, and in 2022, I look forward to bringing you more features, interviews, and reviews.Ī couple of notes before diving into my top picks: First, these are my top picks, and not an effort to say these are the best records of the year objectively.

Along those same lines, Reddit user The_Hanging_Judge just dug up a classic gem that you’ve maybe never known about.īack in 1988, singer Simon Stokes wrote and performed “The Chucky Song,” an official theme song for Child’s Play that was originally supposed to play over the closing credits. Many fans are digging up Child’s Play relics from the past to tide themselves over, with one noteworthy example being last week’s exhumation of 11 pieces of unused alternate art for the Child’s Play 3 poster. And Chucky must be pretty happy about that, as his own return is upstaging creepy doll Annabelle‘s forthcoming second film! With brand new film Cult of Chucky headed our way on October 3rd (along with the Chucky 7-Film Collection!), everyone’s favorite pint-sized killer doll is once more a hot topic of discussion here in the horror world.
“ Eenie, meenie, miney, mo… my name’s Chucky and here I go!”
