    Exploring Themes in Horror
    Oct 7 2025
    In this episode, we delve into how horror uses themes and genre conventions to explore stories and characters. We each chose three works of horror to analyze and discuss, including "I Saw the TV Glow," "Mouthwashing," "The Summer Hikaru Died," "Midnight Mass," "The Menu," and "The Exorcist's House: Genesis." We then discuss how we are staying spooky during this Halloween season!

    Shaylee finishes her thoughts on The Way of Kings. She delves into the themes and characters, and discusses how the ideas and progressions wrap up at the end of this first book in the series. Shaylee may have too many thoughts about the novel that they struggle to find a concise conclusion to - but this is all about the journey, not the destination.
