We are joined by our sibling podcast, Nerds at Church, to discuss one of the most popular family horror-comedies of all time. How many times does this film contain the word virgin? Who is the coolest witch of them all? And what does this movie have to do with baptism? Join Joe and Pace as we talk about this Halloween classic.
CW: mention of sexual assault and mention of ICE, lots of talk about virginity; real life horror story includes discussions of queerphobic church leaders
