Welcome to the Silver Scream, a podcast where two friends, and sometimes three friends, try to find some good werewolf movies. Sometimes the movies are a two-part television show for cool kids in the 90s based on a cool book series. This week we are watching Season 1, Episodes 8 and 9 of Goosebumps: The Werewolf of Fever Swamp. This has been a long anticipated episode for both of us! Joining us for a third time on the podcast is Whitney (social media) who has created a fun horror movie challenge that we will discuss at the end of this episode.
Based on the book of the same name, The Werewolf of Fever Swamp follows the bummer tale of Grady. Grady's parents are really destructive scientists attempting to study something that seems pretty unethical by our standards? There's a fever in this swamp, and we've got it!
