Since things have been pretty quiet on the rumor front lately—especially with barely any new house whispers and absolutely zero Scare Zone buzz—we figured it’s the perfect time to ask: what do we want to see this year at HHN?

Are there certain vibes or aesthetics that feel overdue for a comeback? Maybe a specific theme, era, or atmosphere that hasn’t gotten the spotlight in a while? 

Let’s start manifesting some ideas while we wait for the rumors to start rolling in.

This April, we're diving deep into the shadows to spotlight the freshest—and most fear-inducing—new arrivals haunting Shudder.

Next up: Shadow of God

When an elite exorcist takes matters into his own hands, performing an unauthorized ritual on his own father, he expects to confront a demon. But what he encounters is something far more mysterious—and far more terrifying. As the lines between good and evil blur, he begins to suspect the entity he's battling might not be infernal at all... but divine.

Shadow of God poses a chilling question: What happens when holiness becomes horror?

This April, we’re spotlighting the freshest and most fear-inducing new arrivals to Shudder — and kicking things off with a bloody bang.

First up: Bloody Axe Wound, a twisted coming-of-age slasher that’s equal parts gory and gripping. Starring Sari Arambulo, Molly Brown, Billy Burke, and Jeffrey Dean Morgan, the film follows Abbie Bladecut (Arambulo), a teenager grappling with the terrifying legacy of her blood-soaked lineage. As the daughter of infamous serial killer Roger Bladecut, Abbie’s journey to self-discovery is anything but ordinary. Haunted by her past and stalked by a copycat killer with a vendetta, Abbie must confront the darkness that runs through her veins — and decide whether she’s destined to follow in her father’s footsteps or forge a different path.

Bloody Axe Wound blends slasher nostalgia with sharp modern edge, making it a standout entry in Shudder’s April lineup. Stay tuned as we continue to explore the must-watch horror dropping this month.
