Professional Horror Podcast

It's just a bunch of hocus pocus! It's Halloween tonight in Salem so why don't you join Chris Donovan and his guest Sarah David as they visit the old Sanderson house? We'll be here until sunrise talking about the 1993 Disney classic Hocus Pocus. So come on: leave your weird colonial Halloween party, grab your lucky rat tail, down a empty cup of cider, and join us as we brew up a scary fun time. Just don't light any candles when you're in here, because they can be a witch to put out. 

Also big shoutout to Marshall Hicks and Kat Wells from the incredible Boys and Ghouls podcast. Kat was nice enough to let me use her cover of 'Come Little Children' in this episode. Check them out at boysandghouls.podbean.com or you can listen to their show on iTunes as well. Just listen to one episode and I guarantee they'll put a spell on you.

Welcome to the Loser's Club!! We've been looking for new members since our last few have mysteriously disappeared. The only members left are our fearless leader Chris Donovan and his buddies Justin Beaucage and Ryan Spooner. Join us as we take a trip to Derry, Maine and check out every sewer, circus, and haunted house to find the new clown show. We've heard it's a real scream! By that I mean, we're going to talk about the 2017 smash hit movie It and the Stephen King novel it is based on. I don't know, I try to get all fancy with episode descriptions because I'm weird like that.

We're bad to the bone! Sean Hogan is back on the show with host Chris Donovan for an odyssey of awful. In this episode we talk about our favorite affronts to the basic tenents of storytelling. Movies that failed on many levels but succeeded in winning our hearts. We'll see magic shows and musicals and mysteries, oh my! Sean and I have a lot to talk about today, so what are you waiting for? Join us for talk of killer sheep, claymation bears, dinosaur detectives, and dominatrixes. Yeah, it's a weird episode...

It's good to be bad! We all enjoy watching good horror movies but there's something about getting together with some friends and watching an awful horror movie that can't be beat. To celebrate that feeling, I joined with one of my best friends to talk about a movie that will add some energy to everyone's 'Bad Movie Night'. Join Sean and I as we accept the challenge of discussing Rock 'N Roll Nightmare, a movie with bad Australian accents, polite Canadian harbingers, weird looking puppets, and tons of awful sex scenes. So get your friends together, grab a Coca Cola Classic, and get ready to jam out because here at PHP, we live to rock!

Let's get this party started! Justin Beaucage is back on the show with host Chris Donovan to throw a party at our house on Willow Street. Join us as we play the Monster Mash-Up, a game where each of us pick a horror movie to mix with From a House on Willow Street and then pitch our respective Frankenstein of a movie. Which pitch will come out victorious? Will it be the one where Hazel and her crew have to face-off with Jacob Goodnight, or the one where they venture past Willow Street to a House on Haunted Hill? That's for you to decide. Either way, it'll be a graveyard smash!

Welcome to our house on Willow Street. Justin Beaucage and I are delighted you could join us. Don't be shy, let yourself in, help youself to an apple, and leave your claw ring by the door. Just don't go upstairs, something smells up there. Join us as we discuss the new film 'From a House on Willow Street', the story of a possesed girl, and the poor souls that kidnapped her. Is it a diamond in the rough, or will watching this film leave you feeling burned? All I can say, is that listening to this podcast will mean you're the furthest place on the planet from bored. 

Be careful, this is where Chris Donovan and his guest Ryan Spooner come back for one last scare. Join us as we bring you through the moments we thought we had certain horror movies figured out only for them to turn the table on us in those cruical last frames. We venture inside Dr. Caligari's cabinet, book a room at the Overlook Hotel, and try to make sure we don't miss Mary Shaw's ventriloquist show on our way. Make sure you keep your wits about you for the ending of this episode because a fake-out might be coming your way. There isn't one, don't worry. Or is there?

APRIL FOOL'S!!! That's what this group of college kids keeps saying during their lovely island vacation. It's April 1st and tis the season for whoopie cushions, collapsable chairs and dribble glasses. But not everyone on the island is in a joking mood. Someone is up to something on this island and they're not playing around--or are they?? Join Chris Donovan and his guest Ryan Spooner as they share their 'WELL-th' of knowledge about this 1986 gem, April Fool's Day. You'd have to be a fool to miss this one.
