The Spouter-Inn

9b. Bonus: Sarah Chamberlain on Frankenstein.


Listen Later

Not only is it a movie that deal with death, which is a huge concept for

children, but it deals with it in a kind of fun way, but also a way that makes
it a little scary and makes it a little OK, and I think that children
[experiencing] that might help them be ready for scary things that could
happen later on.

A bonus to our episode on Mary Shelley’s

Frankenstein. We are joined by Sarah
Chamberlain, one of the hosts of fellow Megaphonic podcast A Part Of Our
Scare-itage. Sarah is deeply familiar with the
world of horror movies, and Frankenstein is her favourite book—so we were
excited to talk with her about a few of the many, many, many, many film
adaptations that have been made. What gets changed, what gets added, and what
audiences are addressed in these films? Also, what kind of horror is
appropriate for children?
