Lindsey and Daniel are BACK for the Hallowe’en season! After some nice catching up, podcast recommendations, and apple talk (crunch crunch!), they discuss the 2011 ~film~ “The Awakening” (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Awakening_(2011_film), starring Rebecca Hall, Dominic West, and Imelda Staunton. Then they get into some spooky Hallowe’en season recommendations, including: Stir of Echoes (http...

Daniel reads Edgar Allen Poe's poem "The Raven" with some light foley work!

Well, it's the middle of summer during a pandemic (aka the Depths of Hell), so Ghoul Talk pod thought: "why not make it worse?" And so, our gift to you: Daniel and Lindsey explore the new season of Unsolved Mysteries! *Cue that terrifying theme*

As they attempt to avoid the inevitable madness driven by sHELLtering in place, Daniel and Lindsey bring you a special second episode in this Age of Social Distance. This episode is a rare one, as they both share personal, spine-tingling tales of unexplained happenings in their own homes. The walls are closing in, and the ghoul(s) are coming OUT...

When the world sits inside growing more ghoul-like with each passing day, Ghoul Talk is here to stave off your boredom.

Because, really, what is scarier than a global pandemic?

Join us for a very special LIVE (not really) episode, where your hosts are actually face-to-face IRL OMG in Lindsey's (maybe (probably) haunted) apartment in Chicago! The TeaTalk is light, but the GHOUL Talk is deep.

A bonus in name, but Ghostwatch is truly a main event. On Halloween night in 1992, the BBC presented a fictitious documentary about a haunted house that many viewers took to be real. The ensuing widespread panic and outrage—as well as one sad tragic death—long prevented the release of Ghostwatch, which only became available in the UK in 2002, and then again in 2011. Despite its unintended receptio...

Ghoul Talk Movie Club is puttin’ on the RITZ as they review the modern classic The Grudge, with special guest Nathan Wallace.

Plus AppleTalk news and updates on the much-anticipated Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark movie.

You have been warned: 60-year-old Gregory Peck still had it. In this episode, Lindsey's fond childhood nightmares of this Catholic Horror "classic" are much changed with adult re-watching. Come for the Son of Satan, but stay for the 1976 flavor and (in)famous death scenes!
