Fans of cobwebs and candelabras rejoice as our Halloween Spooktacular takes an ill-advised trip to Guillermo del Toro’s Crimson Peak! Since the day she lost her mother as a child, Edith Cushing has been able to see and speak with ghosts. While Edith is determined to channel this gift into her writing, fate has other plans. After a brief (and tragic) courtship, Edith is whisked away by Sir Thomas Sharpe to his mansion in England. Thomas’ sister Lucille Sharpe lives there as well, and she seems to deeply resent her new sister-in-law. Edith soon realizes that the three of them are not the mansion’s only occupants; numerous tortured spirits appear and attempt to communicate something to her. Will Edith be able to decipher their warnings before it’s too late? Please remember to drink your tea while enjoying this peak episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake! (recorded entirely on wax cylinders)

Whatever they offer you don't feed the plants! On this episode of Anime Was (Not) a Mistake's first ever Spooktacular we are dealing with an alien invasion right in the heart of New York City! We are all in full bloom tonight, especially Jon, he had little bit too much of that Miracle Grow. Run and flee in terror with the classic, 80s, horror, musical Little Shop of Horrors (1986). Dan and I have also managed to snag a few guests while we were in route to the Dentist's office. We can't wait for them to join us in having some fun now... I know Daniel is the greatest but, he's recording with a Sem-alcoholic... Hopefully, even with all that is against us we can make it out of Skid Row and arrive somewhere that's green!

Our Halloween Spooktacular continues with 2001’s Thir13en Ghosts. While still mourning the untimely death of his wife, Arthur Kriticos is informed that his estranged uncle Cyrus has passed away as well. Arthur takes his family to see the mansion that Cyrus left for them, but his late uncle’s house is far from ordinary. An avid ghost hunter until his supposed death, Cyrus had turned his home into a glass labyrinth designed specifically for imprisoning spirits. With Arthur and his family trapped inside, the mansion’s infernal machinery activates. 12 ghosts are set loose within the house, free to rampage until Cyrus’ strange ritual is complete. The blueprints for the machine also mention a thirteenth ghost, one that can either bring the house down entirely…or give Cyrus exactly what he wants. Be sure to put on your spectral glasses and get that scooter off the floor for today’s recently-deceased episode of Anime Was Not A Mistake!

A chill runs down your spine. Your blood runs cold. You feel something behind you, watching. You slowly turn your head and see….A BIG PLASTIC PUMPKIN! That can only mean that our fated Halloween Spooktacular has officially begun! We have six horror movie favorites coming your way, starting with John Carpenter’s mind-bending In the Mouth of Madness. The film follows John Trent, an insurance claims investigator, on an assignment to find the final manuscript of Sutter Cane. Cane is a prolific horror author whose works are rumored to drive people to madness. Trent’s search leads him to the town of Hobb’s End, which has seemingly popped up out of nowhere to match the setting of Cane’s books. All sorts of supernatural horrors spread out from the church wherein Sutter Cane does his writing. Is there a logical explanation for all of this? Or is reality truly becoming stranger than fiction? Find out today on this page-turning episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake!

Feel that rumbling and rolling, as Sinister Six continues with a Jurassic journey. When all you have is a quickly written script, a dream and an animatronic T- Rex you have to make a movie. Tammy and the T-Rex (1994) gives us a romance for the ages, starring Denise Richards and Paul Walker in their film debuts. With crazy bullies, a mad scientist, big jungle cats, and plenty of gore, will this one finally provide the extinction of Dan Ryan? All Jonathan can do is promise this film will be Dino-myte!!! Dan why are you giving me that look?

The latest installment of Sinister Six warps down to Earth as we suffer through 1992’s Abraxas, Guardian of the Universe. Jesse “The Body” Ventura plays the titular intergalactic cop, who chases the evil Secundus across the stars to New York or Canada or Minnesota. Secundus has returned to our world to find his genetically-engineered son Tommy, who he hopes will enable him to solve the Anti-Life Equation (not the one from the Snyder Cut) and gain absolute power. Abraxas and Sonia, Tommy’s mother, quickly form a connection as they fight to foil Secundus’ plan (which involves repeatedly pushing people aside and stealing their cars). Like any good 90’s B-movie, it all builds to an epic confrontation in an abandoned factory. Abraxas and Secundus will do battle once more to decide the fate of the universe or Canada or New York or Minnesota, we don’t know. Make sure you iron your jeans and pack plenty of PEPSI products for today’s vaulted/faulted/balded episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake!

We're proud to unveil the first installment of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake: Midnight Run! In this Toonami-centric format, we take to the stars to enjoy a few anime classics from that beloved programming block. The first series to be showcased are none other than The Big O and Outlaw Star, which you may (hopefully) remember from our Pizza Party Preview event. In The Big O, Roger the Negotiator solves mysteries and fights titanic threats alongside the titular Megadeus. The Big O is not the only mechanical marvel hidden within Paradigm City, which experience a mass amnesia event 40 years before the present day. In Outlaw Star, Gene Starwind and his friends take flight to find the Galactic Leyline and the treasure hidden there. Such a quest requires an extraordinary starship, one that Pirates and Outlaws alike are ready to kill for. Remember to secure your electric eels and ready a few paintballs for today's extra-nostalgic episode of Anime Was (Not) A Mistake!
