If you’ve ever cracked open House of Leaves, you know it’s not just a book — it’s an experience. But how many classic horror tropes are lurking within its twisting pages? In this episode, we’re peeling back the wallpaper (and maybe our sanity) to uncover the eerie elements that make House of Leaves one of the most unsettling horror novels ever written - while throwing in a few other novels along the way.

We’ll talk claustrophobic spaces, unreliable narrators, found footage, the unknowable void, and all the ways authors weaponize storytelling itself. Grab your flashlight — and maybe don’t listen to this one alone.
