My good friend Dr. AC (aka Aaron Christensen) is once again taking on a cause to try to raise money (and awareness) to something special to him. And he’s doing it through the use of scary movies. How cool is that? This is something that AC has been doing for the past 10 years, picking a cause that he feels needs some help, and doing it in a way that all horror fans can appreciate. As horror fans, the ones that a good chunk of society looks upon as deviants, degenerates, and the ones you wouldn’t want to be walking down the street with. Granted, we know that is all nonsense since pretty much all of my fellow horror brothers and sisters are some of the kindest, warm-hearted people I know. So this is a chance to show those people we care, as well as putting some good back into the community.

The way it works is that AC has committed himself to watch 1 horror movie a day for every day in October. Your part comes in my donating a specific amount of money per movie. For example, if you pledge a $1 a movie, at the end of the month, you would be donating $31. You can do more, you can do less. The whole point is to put some financial help to a cause that could use it. This year, AC has chosen Boxville.org to help out. To explain more about this, I’ll let AC do the talking… or writing.

“Launched in June 2017, Boxville, an initiative of Urban Juncture, provides residents and visitors with one-of-a-kind products and everyday necessities while offering local entrepreneurs engaging and affordable spaces for building their enterprises. Your donations will help Boxville expand its infrastructure and winterize containers so that vendors can operate year-round, while simultaneously addressing a very real food access problem.

That’s it! If you’re interested in participating, simply email me here at drach101@gmail.com with your pledge amount and we’ll add you to the roster!

Reviews are posted daily at HORROR 101 with Dr. AC (click HERE for recaps of previous Scare-A-Thons), so please stop by and see how we’re doing (and get a few recommendations for your own fright nights)! I will also be appearing every Friday in October with Ian Simmons and Bryan Martinez on the Kicking the Seat podcast on YouTube, discussing highlighted selections throughout the month.”

So come on horror fiends out there. Let’s show our merit and give a bit of help to a cause that needs your help. Every little bit helps so please take the time and give from the heart.
