Episode 54: Final Destination Bloodlines 2025 and the Final Destination Series 2000–2011


Natalie and Arnold bid farewell to a horror legend, Tony Todd (1954-2024), and heap praise (spoiler alert) on the latest in the FINAL DESTINATION series, FINAL DESTINATION: BLOODLINES (2025)! In talking about this new legacy sequel, they also look back at the entire franchise, and Todd's role in making it so memorable and fun. So listen for the wind, try not to get near...well, anything, really...and lock yourselves in safe and sound while you listen to this not-at-all dangerous episode of GHOULS IN THE HOUSE!

Episode 53: I Know What You Did Last Summer 1997 and I Still Know What You Did Last Summer 1998


Hey, remember Natalie and Arnold? Well, they're back after a bit of a break, and just in time to revisit a '90s slasher franchise that kicked off with a July 4th-set debut and is about to be given the legacy sequel treatment! I KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER (1997) and I STILL KNOW WHAT YOU DID LAST SUMMER (1998) have appropriately lingered in the memory for many fans, but how do they hold up? Put on a sweater because it's hot out, pack for a trip to the tropics (off season, so definitely remember the rain gear), and settle in for an episode of GHOULS IN THE HOUSE that's sure to hook you! Sorry...

And remember, when you're listening to this podcast, the only ghoul in the house...is YOU!

Ghouls in the House
Episode 52: Happy Horrordays 2024 – The Dorm That Dripped Blood 1982 and Christmas Evil 1980


Natalie and Arnold present their annual celebration of all things festive and frightful, with a Very Video Nasty Xmas that covers two of the films from that infamous list, THE DORM THAT DRIPPED BLOOD (1982), and CHRISTMAS EVIL (1980)! So bring a flashlight (it is DARK!), glue on your best Santa beard, and get ready to deck the halls while fleeing from a torch-bearing mob in this very merry episode of GHOULS IN THE HOUSE!

And remember, when you're listening to this podcast, the only ghoul in the house...is YOU!

NOTE: Arnold wanted to add that he thought the chimney sequence in CHRISTMAS EVIL was easily the most uncomfortable and suspenseful scene in the film. He forgot to say it while recording, and he just can't let things go, so there you have it.

Episode 50: Drop Dead Gorgeous 1999


Natalie and Arnold reach a milestone with the 50th episode of GHOULS IN THE HOUSE, and celebrate by throwing the spotlight on a favorite film that has not only grown over the years into a dark satirical cult classic, but should also absolutely be considered a slasher movie as well – DROP DEAD GORGEOUS (1999)!

There's been another gap in our schedule, but Natalie and Arnold are back (again!) to sing the praises of one of their all-time favorite films, DEATH TO SMOOCHY (2002), and in the process talk about surreal storytelling, the evils of gatekeeping, and the ups and downs of the comedy careers of Robin Williams and Danny DeVito.

It's been a while, but Natalie and Arnold are back to chat about two different meta-horror takes on the classic slasher, THE CABIN IN THE WOODS (2011) and THE FINAL GIRLS (2015), as well as discuss possible third films suggested by czhargett and Paula over at Post.news for a triple feature in meta-mayhem!

Natalie and Arnold just can't get enough of those furry fiends lately, so it's time for another werewolf episode! This time around, we take a look at THE HOWLING (1981) and GINGER SNAPS (2000), two very different takes on the transformative trend that share more in common than you might think, and that's besides all the people in them growing lots of excess body hair! So don't go to remote retreats where everyone is really into red meat, read up on herbal remedies, and get ready for a particularly moist episode of GHOULS IN THE HOUSE!

Natalie and Arnold present their annual Halloween triple feature, with a trio of selections inspired by the lyrics of that perennial holiday romp, Bobby "Boris" Pickett's "Monster Mash!" First up, we head "to the master bedroom where the vampires feast" for a very different take on those creatures in 2012's BYZANTIUM. Next, "the zombies were having fun" tormenting a poor woman in SOLE SURVIVOR (1984). Finally, "everything's cool" and the whole gang gets in on the action for the Rankin/Bass classic, MAD MONSTER PARTY (1967)! So avoid the pointed nails of justice, keep an eye out for stalking ghouls, and get ready for a beastly bash in this very special episode of GHOULS IN THE HOUSE!

Natalie and Arnold kick off the best month of the year talking about a brand-new horror special from the folks at the Marvel Cinematic Universe of all places. It's WEREWOLF BY NIGHT, and it's not really another take on "The Most Dangerous Game" (entirely), nor is it a remake of THE BEAST MUST DIE (1974), but the conversation still covers that kitschy classic furry romp too! So steel yourself for the hunt, keep an eye on your fellow hunters for signs of excessive hair growth and sharp teeth, and prepare yourself for this silver-plated October episode of GHOULS IN THE HOUSE!

It's time to enter the nightmare-fueled world of THE CARE BEARS MOVIE (1985) and CARE BEARS MOVIE II: A NEW GENERATION (1986)! So stop reading ancient tomes with bald green ladies that yell at you, don't make deals with red-eyed gingers in track suits, and set your tummy beams to kill for this fluffy and frightening episode of GHOULS IN THE HOUSE!
