On the spookiest day of the year, join With a Terrible Fate in a free-wheeling conversation about the past, present, and future magic of horror storytelling in video games. In a brand-new podcast episode, Dan Hughes and Aaron Suduiko haunt you with reflections on the good, bad, and ugly of scary interactive stories, including:
Old and new glitches, from MissingNo. to headless Marvel heroes
Dan's six-year-old ire for Five Nights at Freddy's, juxtaposed against his reception of the brand-new Five Nights at Freddy's film
The role of horror moments in non-horror video-game genres, such as the JRPG
The "Silent Hill" era of retelling old horror stories in a new light like campfire stories inspired by oral histories, including such works as Resident Evil and Silent Hill remakes, as well as Lies of P
