Halloween season comes with a bittersweet beginning this year, as the horror community has lost multi-talented genre veteran Scott Spiegel. Deadline reports that Spiegel, best known for co-writing Evil Dead II and executive producing the Hostel films, has passed away at the age of 67. A frequent collaborator of Evil Dead mastermind Sam Raimi, Spiegel even cameoed inSpider-Man 2 as the guy on the rooftop who tries to take a slice of pizza before Spider-Man yanks it away. Years later, he also lent his voice to one of the Souls of the Damned in Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness.
