What happens when two millennials get stuck in a horror movie? Spoiler: we’re not making it to the sequel.

In this week’s episode of Adulthood Pending, Zaga and Nick roast horror tropes, iconic killers, and the dumb ways millennials would actually try to survive. From arguing in the group chat while Jason lurks outside, to grabbing pumpkin spice lattes and Nerf bats as “weapons,” this episode proves adulthood is scarier than any haunted house.

We cover:

• Who dies first when millennials are in a slasher
• Dumb “weapons” we’d actually grab (flashlights, Nerf bats, pumpkin spice)
• Horror clichés flipped for our generation
• Jason, Michael Myers, Ghostface, Pennywise, and Chucky vs. millennials
• Why Sallie Mae is the real Jigsaw
• 
  

If you love shows like The Basement Yard or Tiny Meat Gang, and you want spooky-season laughs with a millennial twist, you’ll vibe with this one.
