Spook! is back with another movie based on a Roald Dahl classic! This time, it’s 1996’s Matilda. Join Joe and Nicole in this very “spooky adjacent” episode as they discuss literacy, higher education, and what name Matilda would use if she joined the X-Men.
Warning:
Episode contains spoilers and mentions child abuse, child neglect, suicide, animal endangerment, child endangerment, and murder.
Please note: Nicole makes yet another mistake in this episode. The song she is referring to is in fact, “Little Bitty Pretty One,” not “Itty Bitty Pretty One.” She blames the Mandela Effect.
