Biography

Every day is Halloween for Kaci Hansen - a ghoul that has a passion for all things spooky and horror-related, who tries to find as many ways as possible to integrate it in with her everyday life. She began her venture as The Homicidal Homemaker originally as a MySpace page to inspire others to bring a spooky element to their lives through horror inspired recipes, cocktails, product reviews, tutorials, and themed parties, and general good crypt keeping tips. Throughout the years, it grew into a website, a horror-themed cooking show, and an overall brand that others have embraced to express their spooky side all year round.

Kaci lives in Central California, where she has been a horror host for more than a decade. Since 2008, she's founded and organized several horror-themed organizations and events, such as the Central Valley Horror Club (Central CA's first & only horror-themed organization), and the Visalia Zombie Ball & Crawl (Central CA's first-ever zombie-themed event). She's hosted a multitude of monthly live horror movie screenings, horror-themed concerts & events, and even hosted her own late-night horror talk show on a local public-access station, called Friday Night Frights.

Throughout the years, she's dabbled her way through so many fun projects, such as music videos, indie horror films, founded & performed with a horror-themed dance troupe, and was one of 13 finalists in Fangoria Magazine's nationwide search for their 2010 Spooksmodel. She even was the hostess of my own horror-themed comic book! But for now, she's chosen to focus on her passion, and put her full-time focus into The Homicidal Homemaker, and her popular horror cooking classes at various horror conventions, including ScareLA in Pasadena, HauntX in Reno, and Midsummer Scream in Long Beach.

Bringing videos to The Homicidal Homemaker was something Kaci always wanted to do, but through the whirlwind of her other projects, she stuffed those plans back into the darkest corner of her crypt. Her dreams of producing video content for The Homicidal Homemaker were resurrected in 2016, when her horror-themed cooking show premiered! Kaci not only develops the recipes herself, but also writes each episode, co-directs, co-produces, and even makes some of the props, costumes, and executes special effects used on the show.

Within just a few months of premiering, The Homicidal Homemaker horror cooking show ended up being the first-ever web series available on the Screambox platform, and is also regularly shown on AT&T Uverse & Comcast in the Central California area.

In 2018, Kaci announced that she partnered exclusively with Deadhead Rum and Sangre de Vida Tequila.

In 2020, Kaci was honored to receive a Silver Bolo Award from Joe Bob Briggs and Darcy the Mail Girl on the television show The Last Drive-In with Joe Bob Briggs on Shudder. On top of this already being an incredible recognition, Kaci was actually the first female recipient of the award, and the first food blogger to be recognized.

In 2021, Kaci has moved production of her show into a new studio and is working on producing new content.
