Fear – The UK’s Ultimate Horror Magazine for True Genre Devotees

Launched in the late 1980s, Fear quickly became one of the UK’s most respected horror magazines, delivering a hard-hitting mix of in-depth articles, author interviews, film retrospectives, and genre criticism. Unlike mainstream horror mags that focused purely on movies, Fear embraced the full spectrum of horror culture, covering literature, comics, television, and even video games, making it a true one-stop shop for horror aficionados.

With interviews featuring heavyweights like Clive Barker, Ramsey Campbell, and Stephen King, plus coverage of films ranging from Hammer classics to the latest slasher gorefests, Fear blended serious horror journalism with an unflinching passion for the genre. Though it disappeared from newsstands in the 1990s, its impact still lingers, remembered as a magazine that truly understood horror’s power to thrill, disturb, and inspire. If you ever devoured horror in every form—books, films, games, and beyond—then Fear was your bible of the macabre.
