Keys and gates and locks and thorns
Episode description
On this episode of Earth Station Boo, we dig into Cynthia Pelayo’s Vanishing Daughters and how it twists the darker classic Sleeping Beauty tale and the more unsettling reality of true crime. We explore how grief shapes Brier Rose Thorn’s world, how the city of Chicago becomes more than just a backdrop, and the role urban legends play in the story’s eerie atmosphere.
We also dive into the novel’s take on violence against women, how it reflects real-world fears, and what Pelayo is saying through her blend of horror, mystery, and true crime. This one sparked a deep discussion. Tune in and see where we landed on this tale of grief and horror.
