Back when the campfire was the center of the village, the woods were the dark home of dangerous creatures and magical beings. The woods were considered sinister places that epitomized the unknown.

So, it's no surprise that horror films are right at home with the woods!

My guests, Hope Madden and George Wolf from the Fright Club Podcast join me to talk about some of the most interesting horror films that use the woods to explore literal, symbolic and even psychological monsters!

I hope you enjoy the show!
