Description

For this season finale, we're getting spooky. In this episode, I'll be discussing media that truly frightened me–not just jump scares. I'll be talking about media like Skinamarink (2022), Ethel Cain’s Perverts, Junji Ito’s Manga, and more. I'll also be discussing the ways that media creates a scary atmosphere. What makes something scary?

If you like horror movies and are fascinated by how they create fear, this episode is for you.
