This week on Talking Scared it’s monsters all day, every day. 

To celebrate the release of Screams From the Dark: 29 Tales of Monsters and the Monstrous, we gather around the campfire with editor Ellen Datlow and three of her contributors – no less than Nathan Ballingrud, Chikodili Emelumadu and the great Joe R. Lansdale.

As a result, this is not your average Talking Scared episode. There is interruption, overlap, argument much good humour. 

Amidst the chaos we still manage a fascinating conversation about the creatures that lurk in the wilds and those who walk amongst us. We talk about what makes a monster, why we love them, and where they fit in our modern hyperconnected world.

(and they have the audacity to tell me that Bigfoot isn’t real!)

Enjoy!

Screams From the Dark: 29 Tales of Monsters and the Monstrous was published on June 7th by Tor Nightfire
