By Fleur Clarke
Sky’s new three-part series based on the story of the ‘Enfield Poltergeist’ joins a long, occasionally venerable, tradition of haunted house horrors. Luckily there’s not a nubile newlywed or a mysterious locked attic in site in The Enfield Haunting – in their place is a frazzled single mum raising three kids amidst a lot of moving furniture (most of which is either beige or orange because it’s the seventies) in a council house in North London. The Enfield Haunting has more in common with Broadchurch than it does Paranormal Activity.

By Fleur Clarke
In Penny Dreadful’s title sequence, blood pours into an overflowing tea cup in slow motion. A fitting symbol for what this series sets out to be: hot on the coat tails of stomach churning yet stylish horror series such as Hannibal and American Horror Story, Penny Dreadful takes familiar horror tropes and characters for a spin in Victorian London with all the pomp and production value that American cable television allows.

By Anne Perry
It’s hard to believe that television show Veronica Mars first hit the small screen ten years ago this year. The show, about a flinty teenaged girl who helps out her PI father in her free time (and solves a fair few mysteries herself), was on the air for three seasons – one superb, one very good, and one very uneven – before being ignominiously cancelled by the network. But hope springs eternal, and when series creator Rob Thomas announced a Kickstarter in March 2013 to try to fund a film sequel, it reached its goal ($2 million) in ten hours, breaking Kickstarter records along the way. (It eventually raised close to $6 million.)
