In this episode of Spookier Times, we take a deep dive into Henry James' The Turn of the Screw. We look at its genre, its modern adaptations, the use of epistolary structure in Gothic Literature, and some of the best adaptations of James' classic Gothic/ghost story.
I realize that I’ve never done a proper post explaining what, exactly, Ko-fi is. I’m really excited about this patronage platform and I hope you get excited as well.
Ko-fi is another social fundraising platform like Patreon. The difference is Ko-fi actually supports the creators in a more meaningful way.
Introducing Tick: A Short Musical. This is an original short horror musical inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Tell-Tale Heart.” It’s actually part of a longer anthology horror musical called The Sublime Method that I am trying to make available as soon as I can.
In the Halloween special of Spookier Times, we take a look at the father of American horror Edgar Allan Poe. His work is captured to near perfection in Roger Corman's collaborations with Vincent Price and screenwriter Richard Matheson. From there, we get a sample of the upcoming short musical "Tick," inspired by "The Tell-Tale Heart." Then, we close out with further recommendations, including the musical "Nevermore: The Imaginary Life and Mysterious Death of Edgar Allan Poe," Raul Garcia's animated anthology film "Extraordinary Tales," Stuart Gordon's film "The Pit and the Pendulum," and "The Raven" short from "The Simpsons."
In this episode of Spookier Times, we take a look at the role of sisters in horror narratives. Different combinations of siblings have different tropes and sisters are the one group prevented from ever really having a happily ever after. We explore this through the beloved indie werewolf trilogy Ginger Snaps, an original poem called "Boys will be," What Ever Happened to Baby Jane?, A Tale of Two Sisters, and Trick'r Treat.
