Introduction	Run by Justin Graves, The October Country is an online resource of reviews, news, interviews, art and opinion on the horror genre. Started initially by Graves as a means for him to focus his love and passion on the subject into an outlet other than his poor put upon husband (thereby sparing him and his loved ones his never ending babble on the films covered herein), the site has since taken off as a full fledged labor of love. And he is looking to expand and bring others into the fold.
