A vain smoker, his goodest boy, a vulgar guru of horror, and a producer end up at a mutant freak farm run by a weirdo scientist and get transformed into even more weird looking versions of themselves! On Episode 690 of Trick or Treat Radio we discuss the horror film Traumatika from director Pierre Tsigaridis! As an extra added bonus we have a discussion/love fest for the 4K remaster of the 1993 cult classic film Freaked from directors Tom Stern and Alex Winter! We also pay tribute to the legend of artist Drew Struzan, talk about the definition of a basement jack, and react to the trailer for Keeper the upcoming film from Osgood Perkins! This episode is dedicated to the memory of Ravenshadow’s sidekick Ollie! So grab a can of delicious macaroons, do not let out an ages old demon after being lectured about not doing so, and strap on for the world's most dangerous podcast!
