Ramon Fear's Terror Tapes

What day is it? Sweet St Helier, do you really need to ask? Many happy returns to the King of Falle Mountain, inventor of the bottle top, imp whisperer and fellow Secretary of the Basso Profondo Society, John Henry Falle! 🎉🎂

Like many of you out there, the Prince Charles Cinema formed the launchpad for a love affair with genre, independent, rep and offbeat cinema. Like many other writers, composers and performers, it has played a hugely personal part in exposing us to the influences that would shape our horrid minds. It still puts on unique, sell-out film showings across its two hallowed screens.

If you haven't already, please sign the petition to save the PCC from the now sadly ubiquitous overreaching landlords that continue to threaten London's cultural spaces. 🎥

The future of the iconic Prince Charles Cinema in London’s West End is under serious threat! We are beyond disappointed that our landlords, Zedwell LSQ Ltd and their ultimate parent company Criterion Capital, have demanded the inclusion of a break clause in our new lease. This could leave us homel...

By the way, if you're looking for me on X now - Psyche! 🪦

I loved 'Allo 'Allo. It's not that I don't like the spectre of hand waving far right wingers over my comedic pursuits, it's just... no actually, it is that. But Blue Sky's good! Or Insta and here, providing it doesn't go all Where Eagles Dare...

Today is National Bubble Wrap Day, National Chocolate Cake Day, National Geographic Day, and Thomas Crapper Day. Combine them all and you get my ingeniously resourceful present winging it's way to one Emily Stride who will definitely have never celebrated like this before. Happy Birthday! 🎉🎂

Cryptocurrency multi-billionnaire and stalwart House of Fear scene stealer Peter Wicks was born on this day in 1910, in Bangladesh, Kent. Known for his mellifluous tones and empty eye sockets, Wicks also invented the means by which we light candles, and the dark web. Salut! 🎉🎂

A fond farewell to the genuinely incomparable David Lynch, the man who bent more minds than Tyson Fury with a mace, and who finally made lodges interesting. Tonight's a perfect night to binge Twin Peaks until you're raving like dear Bob himself.

05/01/2025

As the last joyful wisps of Christmas are torn away from us like so much toupee in a gale, it is my duty to inform you that this is THE LAST DAY to listen to our Christmas chiller, And Still It Rang. Listen along as you eat the tree. Do it! Do it now!

Spelling Bee today wouldn't even accept Ramon as a word. The perverts!

02/01/2025

Forget the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse, we have our very own War, Famine & Pestilence right here in the form of Birthday trio Tom Crowley, Susan Harrison & John Last. The 4th is me - it's nowhere near my birthday, but I am ALWAYS death, particularly in restaurants. Many Fearful Returns, fiends! 🎉🎂

It's over. 2024 has oozed down the drain, disposed of like so much blended squid. Did stuff happen? Probably. But I didn't get knighted AGAIN so I'm writing it off.

Yes, everything in the world right now is awful, with the bubonic plague, the Crusades marching on and the death of Teletext, but don't lose hope, better times await. Cyborgs! Driverless skateboards! ME!

Here's to 2025, mutantes! 🎉🥂💀🪦

I now wish to extend my sin-FEAR thanks as always to my Terror Tape players who graced and gored my specials with their vocal talents. We welcomed new and welcomed back old, and we even made it into an actual studio this year. Take that, Zoom Jerkplace*!
*The other one.

Thanks also to our supportive foster parents, Podomedy. It's been quite a year for Fear with live shows, new episodes, awards, and building a fearful following. And this is just the start. I've got stacks up my skeletal sleeves and ready to thrive in '25! Buenas Noches! 🎉💀🎧

If you haven't listened to my Christmas Dreadtime Stories, you have until Jan 6th 2025 to get your grubby gloved meat fondlers on them. After that, I'm sticking all 3 of them behind a pay wall. Because Christmas is over and that means I can go back to being a cold, heartless bastard. Don't have FEAR FOMO!

In case you missed it amidst the last-minute Turkey rush, I have a brand new Christmas special out.

My latest festive fable pays tribute to that holiday classic, 'The Polar Express', on its 20th Anniversary - minus the really fu***ng weird motion capture and the feeling that the whole thing is taking place in Tom Hanks’s mind. Listen, you coal sacks!🎅🚂

Listen to AND STILL IT RANG - A Festive Dreadtime Story from Ramon Fear's Terror Tapes. Light yourself by the festive fire and listen to this year's original Dreadtime story! Marking the anniversary of a much behated CGI Christmas disasterpiece, this story is sure to put a festive chill into your bo...

MERRY FEARMAS, YA FILTHY MUTANTES! Don't forget to check out my trilogy of festive Dreadtime Stories (2022-2024). Something to enjoy in between sewing up a turkey and hurling eggnog at grandma. Or in my case, the other way round. Fe(ar)liz NAAAARRRGGGHHvidad! 💀🎄🪓🥃

24/12/2024

Greetings! Senor Santa left a little something under the tree for you all. A brand new Christmas story!

Unwrap and enjoy my solemn tribute to a certain Express train followed by a tear-jerking advert to rival those mawkish moguls at John Lewis.

Keep an eye out, and those subscribing fingers ready for my Patreon launching in 2025. Come be another Frightener in the Fear Fold.

Feliz Navidad, you bells! 🎄🎅🚂🍏

365 years ago today, my servant, writer, producer, alleged Terror Tapes "co-creator" and personal latex dancer was born, as a fish. His evolution into a Londoner has been nothing short of visceral - and with that in mind, Happy Birthday, Lynch. Get back to work!

21/12/2024

What's this? A brand new Christmas special to bury deep in your stocking? Oh alright then. It is the time of giving after all. Get ready for trains, pains and all-o'-the-feels! Humbug. 🎧🎅🔔💀

SPOTI-FIENDS! I suppose if I have to be thankful for anything this year, it would be you listeners, new and old, who have supported the Fear. Next year, I'll be hunting down the .2% who didn't give me full marks and then absconding to the US (once I can get a VISA).
