Rue Morgue is a multinational magazine devoted to coverage of horror fiction.[3] Its content comprises news, reviews, commentary, interviews, and event coverage. Its journalistic span encompasses films, books, comic books, video games, and other media in the horror genre.[3] Rue Morgue was founded in 1997 by Rodrigo Gudiño, and is headquartered in Toronto, with regional offices in various countries throughout North America, the United Kingdom, and Europe. The magazine has expanded over time to encompass a radio station, book publishing company,[4] and horror convention. The magazine's namesake is Edgar Allan Poe's short story "The Murders in the Rue Morgue" (1841).
Rue Morgue won the Rondo Award in the "Best Magazine" category every year from 2010 to 2016.[5][6] The magazine published its landmark 200th issue in May 2021, which featured an exclusive interview with Academy Award-winning director Oliver Stone.
