Who's There? A Podcast About Horror Fans

Show Notes:
On this week’s episode, Sam Rebelein came on to tell me how he fell in love with horror movies and how he got into writing horror. He’s the author of the Edenville books which take place in a fictional town in the Hudson Valley in upstate New York. He told me what fascinates him the most in horror movies, what his writing process is, and his personal favorite horror authors. He also told me one of his favorite scary stories from the Hudson Valley, the spooky stuff there is to do in October in Poughkeepsie, and his personal full moon rituals and so much more!

This week I have an awesome conversation with British horror writer David Moody on the podcast. He revealed how he got into horror writing and self-publishing e-books in the early 90’s, what does and doesn’t scare him in horror movies,  and how he sold the movie rights to his first movie to Guillermo del Toro without an agent. He also told me what his favorite horror novels are, where he gets recommendations for what to read, and what movie he’d love to see remade.

Show Notes:
A few weeks ago, I sat down with one of the co-owners of the Twisted Spine, Jason Mellow. Twisted Spine is New York City’s first book store for exclusively horror and dark literature. Jason told me about his first experience seeing a horror movie in theatres when he was 7 years old and how it scared him. He then ended up first getting into horror literature and realized that he was a horror fan. Later on we get into how he and his partner Lauren got the idea to open The Twisted Spine, how they designed the store, and how they went about deciding what authors to stock on the shelves and so much more.

On this week’s episode of Who’s There, I had the privilege of speaking with the writer and director behind a new movie called HOKUM, Damien McCarthy. HOKUM is out in theatres everywhere on May 1st and I can’t recommend it enough.Damien told me what it was like growing up with a horror loving father who owned a video rental store in Ireland, the horror directors he looks to for inspiration while on set, and what he includes and what he leaves out when he’s writing a new script. He then went on to tell me where the idea for the story in Hokum came from, including how he landed on the title, and how Adam Scott was cast, and so much more!
