Join us for a closer look at some premonitions straight outta Essex with Richard Hatem, the mind behind the haunting adaptation of The Mothman Prophecies, where reality frays at the edges and something unknowable peers through.

But his fingerprints are all over the strange and the supernatural…

He’s written for Titans, where a group of young heroes join forces in their fight against evil. He’s brought chaos and chainsaw-splattered mayhem to Ash vs Evil Dead. He’s explored belief, doubt, and the uncanny in Miracles.

And, crucially, for so many of us who grew up with salt lines and flickering motel lights… he also contributed to the early, bone-chilling days of Supernatural, helping shape that first season when urban legends, roadside hauntings, and things in the dark felt just a little too real.

From cosmic dread to folklore-fuelled horror, his work circles that same irresistible idea…
That the stories we tell about monsters might actually be the stories that warn us.

So tonight, we’re stepping into that liminal space together…
Where folklore meets film,
Where belief becomes a doorway,
And where, if you listen closely… something might just be listening back.
