Linda Cardellini, star of Friday The 13th prequel show Crystal Lake, is on the cover of SFX 410, which comes packaged in a double-sided wrap (click here to get a better look at that).
A bumper 124-page issue, it comes with three great gifts: a double-sided A2 poster (on one side: Friday The 13th prequel show Crystal Lake; on t’other, Hellraiser art), an A4 art card for Hammer’s 1958 version of Dracula, and a sheet of six Dracula stickers.

Crystal Lake
If (like Ghostface) you know your Friday The 13th, you’ll know that (SPOILERS AHEAD!) the villain of the first movie in the slasher franchise isn’t Jason Voorhees, but his mother, Pamela. Linda Cardellini is taking on her mantle for prequel series Crystal Lake. We talk to the star and showrunner Brad Caleb Kane for an eight-page feature.
Clayface
The DC Universe is about to exchange primary-coloured superheroes for something darker and stranger. We talk to Clayface director James Watkins about bringing the story of Matt Hagen to life with gloopy body horror – plus Tom Rhys Harries, the man beneath the make-up.
Carrie
Stephen King’s classic horror novel about a bullied teenage girl with telekinetic powers, has been adapted for the screen for a fourth time! We chat with Mike Flanagan about putting a new spin on the story for his Prime Video series.
Hellraiser: Revival
In new survival horror videogame Clive Barker's Hellraiser: Revival you play a biker taking on the Cenobites and their fanatical cult, the Scarlet Church. We speak to Saber Interactive narrative director Antony de Fault – plus Pinhead himself, Doug Bradley.
Other Mommy
A lonely little girl attracts an entity that takes on the form of her mother in supernatural horror Other Mommy. Director Robert Savage tells us about going to “bolder places than I’ve ever gone to”, and Jessica Chastain discusses how she approached her dual role.
Ghosts: The Possession Of Button House
The much-loved BBC sitcom Ghosts has spawned a big-screen spinoff! Hopefully it’ll be better than Holiday On the Buses. We go on location to West Horsley Place, near Guildford (aka Button House) and speak to the returning cast.
And that’s not all, features-wise! We also talk to the producer of The Reluctant Vampire, a new TV version of the Eric Morecambe children’s book. Reece Shearsmith talks about his collection of gruesome curios. We also have a rundown of all the latest horror comics, and a look behind the scenes at the Hellraiser attraction at this year’s Halloween Horror Nights, Plus there are smaller pieces on Hammer’s new restoration of Dracula, animated series Ghostbusters: Night Shift, and witchy TV show Yaga.
Red Alert
And the big features are just the tip of the iceberg! As ever, our news section, Red Alert, offers insights into yet more movies, TV shows and books. In the spotlight this month: the latest Street Fighter movie; Taika Waititi’s adaptation of Kazuo Ishiguro novel Klara And The Sun; DreamWorks animation Forgotten Island; Laika’s latest stop-motion movie, Wildwood; and aquatic thriller Whalefall.
