Candyman, Until Dawn, and Don't Breathe turn familiar places into traps in This Week in Horror History for August 24–30, 2026. Revisit Nia DaCosta's Chicago-set sequel, the choices that drive a teen slasher game, and a Detroit burglary that goes disastrously wrong. The Last Exorcism adds a fraudulent preacher's documentary, while Clive Barker's Lord of Illusions takes the spotlight with occult detectives and dangerous stage magic. Horror birthdays and Stephen King's Needful Things round out the week. Find your next watch, play, or read where a performance stops being make-believe.
