On this special two-part installment of Gut Reactions, Eric will be talking about a true crime story that has captured interest like few others – leading to countless film interpretations including The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Psycho, and Silence of the Lambs.
But he is not alone. He is joined by two hosts from Everything Trying to Kill You: Mary Kay McBrayer and Maegan Brooks. For this first episode, he will be laying the groundwork for the conversation by having a more general dialogue with Mary Kay and Maegan about the horror genre as a whole.
Mary Kay McBrayer is a belly-dancer, horror enthusiast, sideshow lover, prose writer, Christian, and literature professor from south of Atlanta. Mary Kay is also the creative nonfiction editor for Madcap Review, a semi-annual online journal of art and literature. She is currently working on her first full-length novel about America’s actual first female serial killer, but until then you can read her essays at The Santa Fe Writers Project Quarterly, Book Riot, and The Blueshift Journal.
Maegan Brook is a longtime lover of horror, true crime, and the strange. As well, she is an avid dancer, fast car enthusiast, thrill seeker, craft beer connoisseur, and self-proclaimed nerd. But by day, she is a behavior specialist in Atlanta, Georgia with a background in clinical psychology. Her research focuses on the function of human behavior, aka why people do the weird things they do. She's known to psychologically over analyze every movie ever made.
Grab some cheese, a craft beer, or a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, and laugh along as Eric, Maegan, and Mary Kay have a killer discussion about horror.
