Happy release day to Rachel Harrison’s newest novel, “Play Nice”. A possessed house, sister feuds, and facing childhood demons, both real and imaginary in the newest novel from the queen of modern feminist horror! Plus, we talk about our favorite and least favorite haunted houses in horror media.

Are you team Conrad or Jeremiah? Edward or Jacob? Nosferatu or Thomas? Emilie or Alyssa? Let's DISH on the trope we hate to love: Love Triangles. What could be scarier than having to choose between two men pining for your love?!

What can we do to change? Is it acceptable to punch a wall?
