February 2016

Women in Horror Month (WiHM) is an international, grassroots initiative, which encourages supporters to learn about and showcase the underrepresented work of women in the horror industries. Whether they are on the screen, behind the scenes, or contributing in their other various artistic ways, it is clear that women love, appreciate, and contribute to the horror genre.

This year RED VEIN ARMY is participating in the 7th annual WiHM celebration by bringing attention to many of the women within the Richmond, Virginia community that have excelled at their particular creepy horror-centric art. Each week we will highlight a different creative outlet and it's marvelously macabre visionary. We'll introduce you to a horror writer, an illustrator, a burlesque producer, a local business owner, and even a few of our very own haunt designers and actors.

Friday, February 5th - Deanna Danger
