Icons Of Fright is a website devoted to conducting thoughtful & informative interviews with various professionals working in the horror genre.
Think the Bravo Channel's 'Inside the Actor's Studio' but for the horror fan. We strive to showcase different actors, writers, directors, artists, webmasters & enthusiasts of the horror genre whom have made a contribution.
It's the brainchild of Robg. & Mikec. but all are welcome to take part in this entity known as Icons Of Fright.
Above all, we want everyone in the horror community to be friends.
