Lizzie/GoffinParront ,

Great mix of modern media with gothic interpretation

I have only listened to one episode (Harry Potter).
This will be on the top of my podcast queue.
Currently listening to first Penny dreadful episode!

fun, informative, great

Frankenpod dives deep into the gothic literature you know and the super obscure stuff you've never even heard of. Every episode, I learn so much about gothicliterature. It's fun, it's informative, and it's great.

Go Gothic!

Yes, gothic is more than just Mary Shelley (but she’s wonderful too, of course). Join Morgan and Brent as they chat about the the more macabre side of films, television, and literature, from classic to contemporary, offering historical context and witty comments along the way. I especially love their quick-fire game of “Everything Is Gothic, Unless It’s Not, Then It’s Something Else.” Is Pirates of the Caribbean gothic? Pitch Black? Listen to find out and learn/laugh along the way. <3 The Indoorswomen Podcast
