The Losers' Club: A Stephen King Podcast

We all know Stephen King loves to write horror fiction, but he also loves to read it. And when the Master of Horror is looking for his next literary fright he turns to our special guest for this episode: Sadie “Mother Horror” Hartmann! Losers Jenn Adams and Dan Caffrey join the Bookstagram star and fellow Constant Reader to discuss her incredible new book 101 Horror Books to Read Before You’re Murdered. Together, they chat about all things horror fiction including their favorite subgenres, creepy kids, the importance of modern horror, and what makes a book Stephen King(ish). And, of course, Sadie recommends a few novels perfect for spooky season! We guarantee you’ll come away from this episode with a much longer To Read list!

Happy Friday the 13th, Constant Listeners! We have a special treat for you: Another series from the LC family. It's called The Lady Killers: a Feminine Rage Podcast, and it's hosted by fellow Losers Jenn Adams and Sammie Kuykendall, in addition to Halloweenies editor Mae Shults and Rue Morgue editor Rocco Thompson. So what's the gist? Each episode will feature Jenn, Sammie, Mae, and Rocco discussing a female-identifying killer in the horror genre—and sometimes the wider world of cinema—from Julia and Jennifer to Carrie and Christine. They’ll tell the story from her point of view, decide if it’s “Good For Her” Horror, and answer the most important question of all: would we die for her? New episodes every Thursday; subscribe now.

Because it's spooky season, the Losers are dusting off an old Crate episode on 1999's The Blair Witch Project, a film that even Stephen King asked to turn off for being "too freaky." Where do you stand? Where do the Losers stand? Hopefully, not in the corner.

With summer behind us, it's time to embrace the Fall season ahead of us. Be sure to keep an eye on your watch as the sun hits that horizon much, much earlier this time of the year. Before you know it? Full Dark, No Stars. Alas, the Losers have reached the next novellas collection in their journey through Stephen King's catalogue. The first of the four finds them dialing the clock back to 1922 and returning to Hemingford Home, Nebraska where there's been a grisly murder. That's an understatement. Stay tuned next week for Big Driver.

In honor of the 40th anniversary of Lewis Teague’s Cujo, the Losers count down and match up to identify -- and crown -- the best critter in all of King’s Dominion! Instead of listing and ranking, we’re gonna let the critters themselves take control and duke it out with each other until only one remains. But never fear. No animals will be hurt in the recording of this episode. We’re using a March-Madness style Bracket to narrow down the competitors to a grand champion.
