Fangoria
Fangoria is an internationally distributed American horror film fan magazine, in publication since 1979. At the height of its popularity in the 1980s and early '90s it was the most prominent horror publication in the world.The magazine was released in an age when horror fandom was still a burgeoning subculture; in the late 1970s, most horror publications were concerned with classic cinema, while those that focused on contemporary horror were largely fanzines. Fangoria rose to prominence by running exclusive interviews with horror filmmakers and offering behind-the-scenes photos and stories that were otherwise unavailable to fans in the era before the internet. The magazine would eventually rise to become a force itself in the horror world, hosting its own awards show, sponsoring and hosting numerous horror conventions, producing films, and printing its own line of comics. The magazine began struggling in the 2010s due to a variety of factors, including difficulty in generating enough ad revenue to cover the cost of printing. Publication became sporadic beginning in the fall of 2015, and the magazine ran through a succession of editors in the years 2015-2016, culminating with the February 2017 announcement of Ken Hanley's December 2016 departure. After Hanley's departure, the magazine ceased publication and various sources offered conflicting opinions as to the publication's future. The magazine remained dormant throughout 2017, although the official website remained somewhat active. In February of 2018, it was announced that Fangoria had been purchased by Dallas-based entertainment company Cinestate who stated that under editor-in-chief, Phil Nobile Jr., they would bring back the magazine as a quarterly, print-based publication. Additionally, Cinestate intends to continue branching the franchise into films, podcasts, and books, announcing in May 2018 that it would be releasing its first licensed novel, Preston Fassel's Our Lady of the Inferno, as the first Fangoria Presents work.
