Episode Synopsis

Amy & Abby are joined by writers and experts Tabby Knight and Oscar Sparkes to kick off our horror-themed October (because what else would we be doing this month?!). What to expect from this spooky episode: defining genres, the origins of liminal horror, mad scientists, fears, and a watch- or read-list the length of a Stephen King novel. Our book of the month is Feast While You Can. Read along with us and tune in to our interview of the authors on October 16 followed by the live book club on October 23!
