Spoop Hour

We tackle WEIRD DEATHS this week! From the medical mishap deaths of Galileo, Henry VIII, and Napoleon to the strangest spooky murder that Courtney has never heard of, it's all about spooky and just plain odd end of life situations. Plus Sasha and Courtney Versus the Monoliths (aka our thoughts on the weird monoliths popping up at the moment).

If you're celebrating American Thanksgiving this week (safely, we hope!), give thanks that you haven't been accused of witchcraft in Puritan times! We take a look at two major historical witch trials with the Pendle witches and the Salem witch trials. Plus we bring back the vintage game Does That Make Me a Witch Though?

We're covering buglore this week, and in true, buggy fashion, we had a technology issue! We lost the first 50 minutes of Sasha's audio () because of a mic bug, so you may notice the conversation seems a little one-sided for the first 38 minutes of the show. But around minute 38, we get back on track to talk about bee lore, spiders weaving the universe, praying mantises, and the good luck of ladybugs!

It's a Halloween cool down this week on Spoop Hour!

Test your Samhain trivia, play Would You Rather, and kick back with us!

Get a brief history of the vampire this week as we travel through time, lore, and pop culture of society's favorite bloodsuckers.

Plus some illnesses that inspired the modern symptoms of vampirism and the notable case of Mercy Brown in Rhode Island!

To celebrate both Spoop hosts entering/remaining in their 30s, we're tackling spooky stories from the 1930s in honor of our birthday week!  From the haunting of Alma Fielding and Resurrection Mary to the rise of the Universal Monster movies, we spoop ourselves out. And we nominate ourselves to consult on the Monster Cinematic Universe (y'all want to watch a movie about the Wolf Man being an Instagram influencer, right?)

It's the thrilling conclusion of our tour of haunted theatres around the world! From an opera house in China that went full Poltergeist to Virginia's various spoopy offerings to an UNPRECEDENTED man in a color haunting a UK stage, it's everything you could ever want AND Courtney's flawless impression of a goat to boot.
