Send us a text In a big country dreams stay with you, but so do the misdeeds of the past if Stephen Graham Jones' "The Only Good Indians" has anything to say about it. Hop in our pickup truck (once we get it off the cinder blocks) as we talk about visits to the local recycling center, opening up a brand new Circuit City, and where Slimer falls on t…

Send us a text Drop on by for an open house tour of Brian Asman's "Man, F*** This House." (Please take your shoes off, the carpet is brand new.) We talk about the need for really "good bones" in this episode, and even bone structure, as the Crypt Keeper tries out Korean skincare routines, we recount actual haunted houses we have lived in, and we ev…

Send us a text Come along as we are lured like moths to the flame at the chance to talk about our favorite cryptid and spiritual ally: the Mothman! Admittedly, we were supposed to be discussing John A. Keel's "The Mothman Prohpecies," but as we discovered only a few scant traces of our hero in it, we ended up feeling a bit betrayed (Well, in terms …

Send us a text We sit down, not for an interview, but for a loosely organized conversation on the novel that brought vampire sexy back: Anne Rice's "Interview with the Vampire." We really burn the midnight oil on this episode as we marvel at Rice's ability to deftly weave the genres of horror and romance (spicy!), give suggestions on how to fix a f…

Send us a text On this episode we finally reconvene across time and space to discuss, at length we might add, Stephen King's incredibly influential novel "The Shining". Although we have been described as quite dingy, we decide we are at least qualified to meditate on those who do shine on, as we explore fire hose snakes (symbolic!), when to hit the…

Send us a text We dive headlong into Jay Anson's "The Amityville Horror" and all the real-life events, controversy, and media that surround it. Engage the "what were they thinking" mode on your bippy, cause we leave no well in the basement unturned, no red room undiscovered, and no green slime untasted in this bizarre read about a pig who really ju…
