Hello, Horror Fans!

And we're back! It's Episode 2 and we've got a good one for you! Our guest this week is Daniel Kraus, celebrated author of books like Rotters, Scowler, The Living Dead, and the amazing Whalefall.

For Daniel's formative horror story, we're digging into "The Invaders," a 1961 episode of The Twilight Zone starring Agnes Moorehead as a poor woman who has some very unwelcome guests. Plus, we talk about single-location horror, the timelessness of The Twilight Zone, horror for kids, and of course his new book with George A. Romero, Pay The Piper. Plus, we got some intel on Daniel's newly announced Night of the Living Dead deep dive, Partially Devoured.

Show notes:

• Pay The Piper is out now from Union Square Books.
• Matthew's Recommendations: Experimental Film by Gemma Files; Red Rooms (in theaters now, on digital soon).

• We're now on all major podcast platforms, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, and YouTube!

Hello, horror fans!

It's Launch Day! Episode 1, featuring Clay McLeod Chapman, is now available to listeners. We talk about Clay's chosen formative horror story, Session 9, ambiguity in horror, the terror of well-produced audio, and which horror author could best pull off a James Brown-style performance. Plus, how many times can Clay write a story about another writer and get away with it, and what's the deal with Paul Tremblay?

Show notes:

• Session 9 isn't streaming anywhere at the moment, but it is available to rent and buy if you'd like to get in on this action and you haven't already. I'd also recommend the Shout Factory physical release.

• Clay's newest release is the novelette Stay On The Line from Shortwave Publishing. His next book, the novella Kill Your Darling, hits stores Sept. 24 from Bad Hand Books.

• Clay's just launched a merch collection with VoidMerch featuring his books, and you can check that out HERE.
