Happy Spooky Season, you ghouls. This week on the podcast, we sit down and chat about a personal favorite. All of these films are favorites for us, including the 1996 film The Craft.

So, You Like Horror? Podcast #67- Cursed Films- Poltergeist

What's up, ghoulies? This week on the podcast, Sarah Beth and I sit down and chat about the cursed film theory behind the Poltergeist film franchise. We discuss the tragic and untimely deaths of Dominique Dunne and Heather O'Rourke, the origin of the curse, cast members' thoughts on the matter, and whether we believe the films to be cursed or not. The cursed film theory surrounding the 1982 film Poltergeist stems from several tragic and eerie incidents involving the cast and crew. The theory suggests that the production was haunted or cursed due to the use of real human skeletons in one of the film's scenes, which some believe brought bad luck. Key events fueling the curse include the untimely deaths of two of the film's young stars. These tragedies, combined with other on-set accidents and unusual occurrences, have led many to believe that the Poltergeist franchise is cursed. Thank you, everyone, for your support.

Howdy, strangers and welcome back. This week on the podcast, I sit with Sarah Beth and we chat about the 2008 film, The Strangers. We briefly rundown the film as we discuss the themes and our thoughts on how it made us feel. We also mention the 2018 sequel and the 2024 remake, The Strangers: Chapter 1. The Strangers is a 2008 psychological horror film that follows a young couple, Kristen and James, who retreat to a secluded vacation home after attending a friend’s wedding. Their evening takes a terrifying turn when three masked strangers—Dollface, Man in the Mask, and Pin-Up Girl—begin to torment them without any apparent motive. As the night progresses, the couple's attempts to escape fail, leading to a suspenseful and terrifying game of cat and mouse. Thank you, everyone, for your support.

So, You Like Horror? Podcast #65- Cursed Films- The Conjuring

What’s up, Jabronis? This week on the podcast, I welcome back Mannuel C. and for the first time on the podcast, his wife Alicia. Together we have a conversation about the cursed film theory that surrounds the 2011 film, The Conjuring. The Conjuring is a supernatural horror film based on the true story of paranormal investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, who assist a haunted family in Rhode Island. The cursed film theory suggests that supernatural events affected the movie's production and release, aligning it with a broader pattern of films where eerie or tragic real-life events occur. These stories add to the film's mystique, attracting more viewers, though whether the events are genuinely supernatural or merely coincidental remains uncertain.

So, You Like Horror? Podcast #64- Friday the 13th: The Series

Happy Friday, folks. This week on the podcast, I fly solo as I sit down and talk about one of my favorite shows as a kid, Friday the 13th: The Series. In this episode, I review the show's basic premise, some memorable episodes, themes throughout the series, and what made it stand out from other horror properties. "Friday the 13th: The Series" is a Canadian-American television series airing from 1987 to 1990. Despite its name, it has no direct connection to the "Friday the 13th" slasher films. The show follows cousins Micki and Ryan, who inherit an antique store. After selling the items, they learn from Jack Marshak that the antiques are cursed. The trio then works together to recover these cursed objects and secure them in the store's vault to prevent further harm. The series is also known as "Friday's Curse" in some markets.
