What's up, you creepy fools? This week on the podcast, I'm joined by Sarah Beth, Bobby Skullface, Mrs. Skullface, and Jaina as we dive into the legacy of one of the most iconic horror films ever, The Exorcist. From the groundbreaking story of demonic possession to the film's chilling on-set accidents, mysterious deaths, and long-lasting impact, this episode explores the infamous "cursed film" theory that has haunted the production and its legacy for decades.

We'll unravel strange set mishaps like unexplained fires, cast injuries, and the tragic fates of those involved while debating whether these events were coincidences or evidence of something darker. Did the film's intense themes invite sinister forces, or were the tales of its curse amplified by media and cultural fears?

Tune in as we dissect the myths, analyze the facts, and debate whether The Exorcist's legacy is rooted in real supernatural phenomena or Hollywood's love for a good scare.

Hey friends and freaks, what's up? This week on the podcast, we did things a little differently. For this episode, we welcome back Amy, a.k.a @aces_wild27, from episode 12, Children of the Night, and Jenn, a.k.a. @867_jenn_5309 from episode 6, the Conjuring Universe, to explore the chilling subgenre of Isolation Horror. From its literary roots in Frankenstein to modern films like The Shining and A Quiet Place, they dive into how isolation intensifies fear through physical remoteness, psychological detachment, and vulnerability.

They’ll discuss why it resonates so deeply—especially in a post-pandemic world. With examples like Gerald's Game, Hush, and the Terror, they unpack the primal fears of loneliness and helplessness that make isolation horror so compelling.

Join us for an in-depth look at how this genre reflects our anxieties and continues to deliver some of horror's most haunting stories.

What's up, ghoulies? This week on the podcast, Sarah Beth and I sit down and chat about the cursed film theory behind the Poltergeist film franchise. We discuss the tragic and untimely deaths of Dominique Dunne and Heather O'Rourke, the origin of the curse, cast members' thoughts on the matter, and whether we believe the films to be cursed or not.

The cursed film theory surrounding the 1982 film Poltergeist stems from several tragic and eerie incidents involving the cast and crew. The theory suggests that the production was haunted or cursed due to the use of real human skeletons in one of the film's scenes, which some believe brought bad luck. Key events fueling the curse include the untimely deaths of two of the film's young stars. These tragedies, combined with other on-set accidents and unusual occurrences, have led many to believe that the Poltergeist franchise is cursed.
