Episode 432: Haunt Sweet Home - How to Write a Haunted a House

  • Summary

  • The dragons kick off spooky season with a look at one of the staples of horror - the haunted house. It's so ubiquitous now that haunted house stories are really a sub genre in their own right with their own tropes and conventions. So why do some haunted house stories work while others fall flat? This week Jules and Madeleine present a blueprint on how to build your own haunted house story complete with flickering lights, sordid history and reappearing blood stain. Rattling chains in the attic optional.

    On the slab: The Haunting of Hill House, The Haunting of Bly Manor, The Little Stranger and many more.

    Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic
