Whether it’s psychological terror, supernatural thrills, or campy slashers, we’ve got a pairing that screams. Six horror films. Six cheeses. Three wines. This class is ideal for horror buffs, wine lovers with a dark side, or anyone who believes a little fear pairs beautifully with funk and fermentation. Costumes encouraged. Fearless palates required.
