We’ve teamed up with Lauren and Alicia from the Deviant Women podcast to bring you a very special Halloween episode all about the queen of horror: Shirley Jackson. Lauren and Alicia tell us a little bit about Jackson’s background, we discuss Jackson’s short story “The Lottery,” and we chat about the new The Haunting of Hill House on Netflix.

About

We are Alicia and Lauren, the hosts of Deviant Women. Every fortnight we discuss a different ‘deviant’ woman from history, fiction, mythology and the contemporary world: those who aren’t afraid to break the rules, to subvert the system, to explore, to seek and to challenge the status quo.
