Welcome back to Fright School! This week, we reflect on the past year of Fright School episodes. We promise we have so much more planned for this year barring an apocalypse which seems more and more likely! Joshua and Joe share what they did for New Years. It's that time of year again: franchise deep dive and this time we're grabbing our rosaries and plunging into THE CONJURING UNIVERSE! We kick off with THE CONJURING by discussing our love of Lili Taylor, the history of exorcism in the Catholic church, the heteronormativity of the film, and perhaps over reliance on the body-ody-ody of horror work that came before.
