Episode 01: The Witch & It Ch 1: A Specter Haunt New England
We're opening the lids and picking apart our own home away from home, New England! We are talking about what makes the Northeast so unsettling. How our physical landscape is interconnected to the history of this place, and the ways that the unresolved and unacknowledged ghosts of the physical space haunt our mental landscape. From clashing views of the wolf as a cultural symbol to Christian imperialism and how migration plus an epidemic led to the story of Rhode Island’s own vampire Mercy Brown, it’s all covered in the first half of this episode. Then we dive into the Witch and It Chapter 1 as two movies in which New England plays a part as a driving force in the films. Woulds’t thou like butter with your popcorn?
