Not to be dramatic, but horror erotica might be the real summer romance.

In this first-ever episode of The Pomegranate and the Mic, we’re getting cozy with the dark stuff...think sweaty skin, haunted cabins, sexy brain science, and why a stalker in the woods sometimes just hits harder than a small-town golden retriever boy. Sorry not sorry.

We’re breaking down:

• What makes horror smut feel extra hot in the summer
• The legit neuroscience behind fear + arousal (aka why you’re turned on AND terrified)
• The creepy horror micro-tropes that should feel illegal but absolutely don’t
• And the exact kind of chaos that makes this genre so addictive

If your ideal beach read involves masked lovers, cursed towns, or things that go moan in the night... pull up.

New episodes every week. Pull up for dark romance talk, a little storytelling chaos, and just enough deets to keep your TBR overflowing.
