Welcome to Horror Convos: A casual, relaxing, and occasionally funny podcast where we pick one topic per episode and discuss any media related to it that we want: Movies, TV series, novels, comics, video games, radio dramas, etc. Nothing is off-limits here! I often have guests join the conversation while sharing my personal thoughts and history with the chosen subject as well as examples of works that I believe portray it effectively or ineffectively.
