Necrocasticon

 Welcome to Volume 3 Chapter 12 of The Necrocasticon, where we blend horror and heavy metal properties with a common connection. Your host, horror writer Tom Clark, is back in the studio this week after the trip to Scares That Care in Williamsburg, VA. And that means Mr. Scott and Azriel Mordecai are with him, once again. We regret Smoking Walt ball had an emergency to handle, but have no fear, he'll be back next week.   We're getting soft on you this week, with the Silent Screams: A Discussion on Quiet Horror panel from Scare That Care 2017 with Paul Tremblay, Mary SanGiovanni, Ronald Malfi, Damien Angelica Walters, John Maclay, James Noll, and moderator Matt Serafini.   But that's not all. In line with the soft horror discussion, we're also sharing with you, our favorite metal power ballads, just in time for a nice romantic summer with your other half. If you have one. From Motley Crue to Vandenburg, we're digging into the softer side of metal.   Our regular segments return, too, this week! Tom reviews Crai
