WELCOME TO NERD HORROR
Welcome to Nerd Horror. We are a media collective of horror nerds celebrating anything and everything nerdy about horror. Our main focus is on creating content that features the nerd horror genre, an often overlooked but already existing genre of horror that features nerds and outcasts who use their brains to either defeat or create the terror that faces them.
