Did you miss us? Because we missed you…and we brought souvenirs! After a full month away, Zena and Shelby are crawling back from the grave, and boy, do they have stories. Shelby traded screams for sea breezes on a two-and-a-half-week cruise, then wandered through The Horror Show at the Academy Museum of Motion Pictures, a whole exhibit dedicated to why we love being scared. Zena spent her time chasing every scare she could find: a trip to Miami for BEWARE BOIUNA, plus Halloween Horror Nights and a whole lineup of other haunted theme parks and houses. The gruesome twosome also dish on RESIDENT EVIL (2026), spoiler-free, plus #PreggersForCreggers and your listener questions! This episode is brought to you by Torchbearer Sauces! We try the new flavors and get a first whiff of a mystery flavor launching October 1st. Grab your popcorn and a bottle of sauce, and press play!

THE HOME (2025): Pete Davidson, Leaky Eyeballs & Your Retirement Plan

This week, the gruesome twosome are diving into THE HOME (2025). Sentenced to community service at a retirement home, Max is told the fourth floor is strictly off-limits because residents up there need "special care." Naturally, he doesn't listen! Cue secrets, a very forbidden floor, some leaky eyeballs, and a mystery that puts everyone's lives on the line. This episode is sponsored by CWA Wealth Advisory because between the psychological horror and the fourth-floor chaos, we figured it's a good time to talk about a much less terrifying kind of planning: your retirement. No forbidden floors required. CWA Wealth Advisory helps high-net-worth individuals and families make smart financial decisions. Building personalized strategies around investing, taxes, and estate planning to protect and grow your wealth for the long haul. Learn more at www.contewealth.com. Let's get bloody.

THE AUTOPSY (2022) Is Gross, Grim & Gory...We Love It

Grab a scalpel and grab something spicy...this episode gets HOT! Huge shoutout to our sponsor, Torchbearer Sauces, keeping us fueled with unfiltered heat while we play a little game we like to call Talk or Torch. Here's how it works: every time we say Dr. Winters' name, we sample a Torchbearer Sauce. Simple rules, deeply questionable decision-making. This week, the gruesome twosome is diving into Episode 3 of GUILLERMO DEL TORO'S CABINET OF CURIOSITIES: THE AUTOPSY. A seasoned sheriff investigates a dead body in the woods and calls on an old pal, a medical examiner, to help piece together a series of chilling events. That's all the plot we're giving you! This one deserves to be experienced blind, but trust us, once the autopsies start, things get weird fast! Gore, tension, and seriously good performances from F. Murray Abraham and Glynn Turman. We've got plenty of thoughts, sour gummies, a few regrets, and possibly some tears (from the heat, definitely not the horror)! Grab your popcorn and a bottle of Torchbearer Sauce, and tune in! This episode may make you want some things to stay absolutely buried. Feeling brave? Torchbearer Sauces: www.torchbearersauces.com/collections/bloody-disgustings-deals Let’s get bloody and disgusting. Got a horror question you’ve been dying to ask us?

Women in horror

Love the back and forth between our two women hosts.
Oh My God!

PalomaBlanca00

I’ve been listening since the beginning with the other hosts. While I also had some complaints with them, Shelby is killing me. You have to stop saying Oh My God every 2 minutes, I’m sorry but it’s very hard to listen to.
The Falloff is Incredible

Big A 316

It took about six months but I listened to the entire catalog of episodes with “the Dark Trio.” This show had become that good. Then, Megan and Jon left. Zena needed them. She’s trying but the revolving door of guest hosts haven’t helped matters. Shelby seems like a great person but her horror takes and lack of knowledge in anything past 1996 leaves a lot to be desired. What was once a great podcast is now a dud. And, it’s a real shame. This podcast represents Bloody Disgusting while providing some of the worst in horror coverage. Do better - either with new hosts or a new name reflecting the change in quality.
Jon!!
