Customer Reviews
Great show
Daniel has great chemistry with his guests, and does a wonderful job of diversifying show topics—the podcast keeps its focus on gothic horror, but also hits on gateways, as well as fringe horror at times. Excellent listen!
Fantastic Podcast!
Host Daniel Epler does a great job hosting this podcast on classic horror movies. It’s fun and filled with great info, and most importantly, he and his guests will put a bunch of great movies on your radar to check out. Cobwebs has helped get me into more classic horror, especially Hammer. Well worth your time!
Fun Horror Podcast
Really enjoying this podcast so far! I love gothic horror and the host is extremely knowledgeable but completely unpretentious which I appreciate.
