It’s that time of year again. When I celebrate the winter solstice by getting some horror authors to come and talk in deep, emotional detail about a scary book that we like.

This time the Christmas Special Deep Dive kicks the tires and looks under the hood of Stephen King’s most underrated novel: From a Buick 8. My friends on this weird-ass-road trip are Ally Malinenko and Nat Cassidy. I asked them to do it for a coupla reasons. 1) They are lovely 2) hey really get King, and 3) they can speak to this book’s focus on grief and loss.

And oh boy do we talk grief, loss, afterlives and everything else. Turns out it’s not just a book about a car after all.

Don’t worry though, Ally is charming, Nat is snarky and together we’ll make you laugh. 

And Christmas is supposed to be tinged with melancholy isn’t it…

Enjoy!
