Hey Horror Fans!

This week, We are joined by Emily C. Hughes, author of Horror for Weenies!

In our conversation Emily shares her journey into horror, from the childhood moments that scared her away to the realization a decade later that she was hooked on the genre.

We dive into the unique challenges faced by "horror weenies"—those who fear the screams on screen but still want to join the conversation as horror becomes increasingly more popular than every before. Emily’s book bridges the gap, offering readers a friendly hand as they step into the void.

While we were initially hesitant about the concept of enabling spoilers, Horror for Weenies won us over with its thoughtful approach and Why It Matters sections that explore the cultural and historical significance of each film.

Whether you’re a seasoned horror lover or a curious newcomer, this episode (and Emily’s book) has something for everyone so...

Come Hang Out!!!
