Aspects refreshed Dec 18, 2025
Created when a cursed film reel from a lost B-movie fused with the essence of disc golf competition during a supernatural storm, the Horror Herald emerged as an eternal entity destined to wander Utah courses, heralding horror wherever players embody their archetypes.
The Horror Herald possesses an ethereal form that shimmers with vintage film grain effects, a voice that echoes with dramatic movie trailer intonations, the ability to project ghostly images of upcoming horror scenarios, and can teleport between leagues via pathways made of spectral film reels.
It narrates and introduces each league's horror theme to players, ensuring the grindhouse narrative begins with authentic B-movie atmosphere and maintains series-wide continuity.

Commentary from Flippy (your trapped narrator)
glubs sarcastically through corn syrup blood Oh great, ANOTHER cursed movie prop! So apparently when some film student's lost B-movie reel got struck by lightning during a midnight screening, it fused with the very essence of competitive disc golf drama. Now we have the Horror Herald - tag #44 - wandering Utah courses like some discount Babadook, destined to dramatically announce every bogey like it's the climax of Scream. Because obviously what this grindhouse nightmare needed was its own hype man with vintage film grain effects! Will it ever stop monologuing in movie trailer voice?

The Horror Herald sensed a kindred spirit when Michael Dougherty approached - a man whose very name echoes the legendary horror director! With PDGA #197996 glowing like cursed film credits, the tag practically leaped into his bag, recognizing someone who could truly appreciate its theatrical flair. After all, who better to wield a B-movie narrator than someone already sharing DNA with cinematic scream royalty? But can he handle the constant dramatic monologuing between throws?
