  1. Brian Raftery on “Hannibal Lecter: A Life”

    FEB 10

    Brian Raftery on “Hannibal Lecter: A Life”

    Today on The Terrorium I am joined by Brian Raftery, the go-to guy for all things Hannibal Lecter. Out today, February 10th from Simon and Schuster is his fictitious biography on the good doctor, and I was honored to sit down with him to nerd out about Lecter, across all of his iterations, from Michael Mann’s “Manhunter,” to Bryan Fuller’s NBC series. We discuss everything from Donald Trump’s unhinged references to the late, great Dr. Lecter during his 2024 candidacy, to the sex appeal of the character, to Raftery’s surprising front-running candidate for his next biography- you won’t guess.
