From there, we take a nostalgic trip down Halloween lane and rank the most iconic childhood costumes—the ones that made us feel untouchable, glamorous, or downright legendary. You know, that one costume that had you acting like you were signing autographs at recess.

Then, we dive into the movies from our childhood that scarred us for life, even if they weren’t technically horror. Why did that one scene live rent-free in our nightmares for years?

To wrap it up, Jess brings this week’s Benefit—a podcast recommendation you’ll love: Mad Woman in the Attic, a true crime show with witty banter, dark intrigue, and two hosts you’ll want to be best friends with.

Spooks, nostalgia, trauma cinema, and new obsessions… this episode has it all.
