It's Night 6 of The 13 Nights of Halloween: Folk Horror Edition — and tonight, we're heading down to the Louisiana bayou for The Skeleton Key (2005). 🌙✨  Tim and Johnathan are joined by Travis from @thenightclubpodcast, who brings his deep knowledge to help us unravel this Southern Gothic gem. Together, we explore the movie's unique mix of hoodoo magic, decaying mansions, and generational curses, all wrapped in humid tension and creeping dread.  🔥 In this episode, we dive into: • How The Skeleton Key blends folk horror with Southern Gothic roots • The real-world folklore behind hoodoo practices • That unforgettable twist ending — and how it redefines belief as power • The film's legacy as one of the most underrated supernatural thrillers of the 2000s  👁️ "You don't believe — that's your problem."  ✨ Be part of the conversation!
