Afterlife Architecture: Gothic Liminality in the 'Flatliners' Universe (Episode 100!)


Listen Later

To celebrate our 100th episode, we’re diving straight into my newest writing project: an exploration of the Flatliners universe and how its gothic architecture, liminal spaces, and resurrection imagery mirror the film’s trauma narrative and each character’s desperate push toward restoration and rebirth.

And because it’s episode 100, we’re turning that lens on ourselves too.

We look at our own restoration arc: where the show started, how it’s evolved, and where Spooky Scholars is heading in 2026 as we dig even deeper into horror analysis, film theory, and the dark academia vibes you’ve all been a part of creating with us.
