Ian is also known for his 'Duke' persona and can be seen hosting his monthly Webisode series called "The Reel Horror Show" at DukofHorror.com. This is a Magazine Webisode series for Horror/Comedy enthusiasts. Focusing more on the camp humor of classic horror movies as opposed to the modern blood and violence approach.

"When he comes on set he brings such an amazing attitude. The passion and excitement he has for what he does is so contagious yet somehow he manages to keep a very relaxed environment"
