In this episode of Quills & Chills, I sit down with poet, essayist, and artist Zefyr Lisowski to talk about her haunting new book, Uncanny Valley Girls. We explore how horror, intimacy, and film criticism collide in her deeply personal collection of essays. Zefyr opens up about her time in a psych ward and how horror films became both a refuge and a creative spark. From The Wolfman to The Ring to Saint Maud, we dig into how these stories reflect fear, transformation, and the strange beauty of being human.
Join us as we unpack the eerie, emotional, and cinematic heart of Uncanny Valley Girls—and what it means to find yourself through horror.
