The 80s gave us horror done right. They had the slashers, they had the thrillers, and they had an abundance of haunted house films. We chat about some of the great ghost tales that hit the big screen in the 80s and 90s, as well as some personal paranormal experiences. After a study in the ebbs and flows of the horror genre from the 80s through the 90s and into the 2000s we finally take a dive into one of our favorite haunted house movies, Th13teen Ghosts. As usual we get derailed several times along the way, but in the end we pay tribute to the film that we feel turned the horror genre around and kick started a new generation of ghost stories. For old school horror fans, there is a pretty deep dive into the films and shenanigans of William Castle that you won't want to miss.
