A podcast where we discuss the stories that keep your kids up at night. We all know about Goosebumps... but have you heard about Fright Time; Shivers; Hair-Raisers; Bone Chillers; Creepers; or, Graveyard School ? In this podcast, we analyze chapterbooks, going through each series consecutively ( book-by-book) to learn more about these oft-forgotten creepy kid's tales and to analyze the stories from a horror writer's perspective, as well as look at the culture of kid's horror literature and how it's changed over time.
