Stacie and Bill are a couple of internet randos who have found themselves being held hostage by an evil AI that has an inexplicable horror movie obsession, as well as a fairly flimsy backstory. Join them as they get in on the ground floor of this nascent podcasting industry, and talk and talk and talk about horror movies, delighted to have finally discovered an outlet to do so. And people said this "ability" would never pay off! I mean, those people were right, but Content warning: It's about horror. We talk about violence, death, and scary sad stuff. Stacie swears. art by gabby burgard
