Resident Evil 7 Special Edition Comes with Some Creepy Extras
We are only a couple of months away from the release of Resident Evil 7 Biohazard. The trailer that premiered earlier this year caused mixed fan reactions. Some super pissed that there were no zombies anywhere to be seen, and some loving the new approach and aesthetics. Whichever side of the fence you are on, you can’t deny that it pretty exciting to have the series coming back.
To celebrate the release, Gamestop has announced an exclusive Special Edition for the game. The creepiest bit of the whole thing has to be a replica of the Baker Mansion that stands at 8 inches. The mansion comes complete with creepy music box sounds and some cool looking LED lights to reveal an ominous silhouette in an upstairs window.
In addition, the special edition box comes with a dummy finger that doubles as a USB stick, a VHS box, a metal game case and a lithograph of the Baker family.
The game trailer that was reveled at E3 earlier this year featured a protagonist waking in a dark mansion, he was surrounded by creepy mannequins, a ton of roaches and a mysterious figure that looked to be the antagonist, or at least one of the antagonists. So far, Capcom has remained pretty tight-lipped about what the game is going to be about, or if any fan favorite characters will return. Back when ‘Resident Evil 4’ was released it managed to reinvent the wheel of familiar Resident Evil gameplay. By doing that it is still considered one of the best of the series.
The trailer for 7 looks to be very different. While we wait, lets take comfort in the fact that different is sometimes the best way to go. The last couple of Resident Evil games amped up the action in place of the more popular survival horror mechanics. Maybe, this entry will take us back to basics and change the landscape once again.
Resident Evil 7 Biohazard’s Special Edition will set you back $179.99 and can be pre ordered over at Gamestop.

Netflix Releases First BTS ‘Fear Street: Prom Queen’ Footage
It’s been three long years since Netflix unleashed the bloody, but enjoyable Fear Street on its platform. Released in a tryptic fashion, the streamer broke up the story into three episodes, each taking place in a different decade which by the finale were all tied together.
Now, the streamer is in production for its sequel Fear Street: Prom Queen which brings the story into the 80s. Netflix gives a synopsis of what to expect from Prom Queen on their blog site Tudum:
“Welcome back to Shadyside. In this next installment of the blood-soaked Fear Street franchise, prom season at Shadyside High is underway and the school’s wolfpack of It Girls is busy with its usual sweet and vicious campaigns for the crown. But when a gutsy outsider is unexpectedly nominated to the court, and the other girls start mysteriously disappearing, the class of ’88 is suddenly in for one hell of a prom night.”
Based on R.L. Stine’s massive series of Fear Street novels and spin-offs, this chapter is number 15 in the series and was published in 1992.

Live Action Scooby-Doo Reboot Series In Works at Netflix
The ghosthunting Great Dane with an anxiety problem, Scooby-Doo, is getting a reboot and Netflix is picking up the tab. Variety is reporting that the iconic show is becoming an hour-long series for the streamer although no details have been confirmed. In fact, Netflix execs declined to comment.
If the project is a go, this would be the first live-action movie based on the Hanna-Barbera cartoon since 2018’s Daphne & Velma. Before that, there were two theatrical live-action movies, Scooby-Doo (2002) and Scooby-Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed (2004), then two sequels that premiered on The Cartoon Network.
Currently, the adult-oriented Velma is streaming on Max.
Scooby-Doo originated in 1969 under the creative team Hanna-Barbera. The cartoon follows a group of teenagers who investigate supernatural happenings. Known as Mystery Inc., the crew consists of Fred Jones, Daphne Blake, Velma Dinkley, and Shaggy Rogers, and his best friend, a talking dog named Scooby-Doo.
Normally the episodes revealed the hauntings they encountered were hoaxes developed by land-owners or other nefarious characters hoping to scare people away from their properties. The original TV series named Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! ran from 1969 to 1986. It was so successful that movie stars and pop culture icons would make guest appearances as themselves in the series.
Celebrities such as Sonny & Cher, KISS, Don Knotts, and The Harlem Globetrotters made cameos as did Vincent Price who portrayed Vincent Van Ghoul in a few episodes.
