Episode description

Hello Dear Listeners,

Summer is in full swing and we are releasing an episode that wasn't recorded this past winter! We hope this episode will keep you creeped out as you travel for your summer fun. Maybe you can bring us with as you visit a ghost town or check out a haunted house.

This week Katya and Laramie discuss Stephen King's Salem's Lot, (specifically the 1979 TV miniseries directed by Tobe Hooper). Laramie discusses the horror of vampirism and why Salem's Lot shows us that the sexual appeal of vampires is scarier than anything. Katya and Laramie also discuss if the events of Salem's Lot could take place today and the terrifying parallels between vampirism and drug addiction.

Also, Katya and Laramie discuss many of Laramie's wonderful works of art, what Katya has been up to these past several months, and why language matters so much in horror and life.
