So obviously I've been absent for much of the year due to personal reasons, and what better to pull me back into the game with Hoop-Tober?

Despite the title, nothing really different here. It's the usual assortment of horror fare I put together each year. From well-known titles to more obscure oddities, I always do my part in trying to put together a diverse and entertaining list, while sticking as closely to Cinemonster's rules as possible.
