MINISODE: Why Say Lot Word When Few Word Do Trick - "Man Door Hand Hook Car Door"
Grab your sweaty and settle in for this wild ride of a minisode! Allie and Emmy do an in-depth analysis of the satirical creepypasta, "Man Door Hand Hook Car Door." This piece was posted anonymously to a supernatural web-forum in 2012, and it has been in Allie's heart and mind ever since. It recounts the urban legend of the hook-man, as he terrorizes local honeys and steals stereos. In this riveting discussion, the pals explore internet culture, trollpasta, satire, the world of publication, and more! Check it out - you'll be hooked ;)
Our next episode will be over "Rime of the Ancient Mariner" by Samuel Taylor Coleridge: The Rime of the Ancient Mariner (text of 1834) by… | Poetry Foundation
