The Spooky Scholars Podcast

The best horror analysis podcast for the BIG questions we ask of horror movies and literature: The symbolism of slime? A zombie zeitgeist? Your weapon choice to survive a slasher? Anyone can summarize and review a horror movie but there's SO much more to horror than the list of shrills and kills. Horror is the genre pushing boundaries and taking society to task with monsters and mayhem, slashing and sex/gender play. Horror is EXTRA, and you need a friend (or podcast host) to ask, "WTF did I just watch?" Let's slice open the underbelly of horror and get schooled in spooky!

Adventures in Anxiety: The Mental Health Benefits of Dark Tourism

In this episode we are steeped in spooky adventures as therapist and author, Chad Scott, shares his insights and unforgettable experiences at haunting cemeteries and captivating locations steeped in history.

Not only that, but good news for us frequent travellers of darkness: Chad explains how visiting historical sites can rival psychedelic drug effects in addressing mental health challenges like anxiety and PTSD.

We learn how confronting the darker aspects of our cultural past can profoundly affect our emotions and mindset, not only for us history buffs, but for everyone seeking solace in understanding tragic narratives.

Join us as we reveal the transformative power of dark tourism on our psyche!
