Summer is starting to sizzle here in New Jersey, and the ghouls are celebrating by listing their favorite Horror Books. Since they've given Stephen King is due, they made the rule that there could be no Stephen King on the list (they've already made that list).
Marissa spirals, stans the younglings of Booktok and had to dig deep into the past to craft her "eras" tour of horror, while Jacki proves she is the real guru as she dive into her impressive Goodreads list to find the best horror she has read in recent years.
So grab a cold one, slap on your sunscreen (or tanning oil for the real Jersey Girls out there), and join the ghouls as they ride the summer waves of reading and relaxing.

The truth is out there ghouls. But listening to this episode will hardly help you find it. Instead, Jacki and Marissa will explore Fire in the Sky and Signs. Jacki treats us to story time with the "true" story behind Fire in the Sky while Marissa wonders if DB Sweeney is going to say "toe pick." The ghouls aggressively defend M. Night Shyamalan. Then they give their official thoughts on aliens and alien encounter. Finally the ghouls come to terms with the cold, hard truth that they are, indeed, sci-fi geeks too!
