Camela Thompson and Z.D. Gladstone discuss their own childhood favorites from early readers to YA. Paranormal has been a part of our culture since the beginning of time, and it is interesting to see the lengths that writers (for the big screen or books) go to make their interpretations kid friendly. The cohosts also take a look at what modern authors do to differentiate their material for their intended audiences.

As always, we would love to hear from you. If you have any suggestions or feedback, please leave us a comment.

Amy Rakowczyk joined Z.D. Gladstone and Camela Thompson to discuss the impact of music in film. They look at classic horror themes and what makes an enjoyable movie experience.

Note: Camela Thompson mentioned a movie score in The Mirror. While she stands by her feelings about the movie, she acknowledges there isn't a music score. She had watched a lot of bad horror in a short amount of time and will update this post when she figures out which movie she was recalling (she has it narrowed down to Alien Uprising or Extraterrestrial).

Z.D. Gladstone and Camela Thompson cover a topic at the forefront of their minds: Writing! Both have several projects they are working on and were happy to have the chance to talk about their passion. Pet peeves as a reader, things to avoid as a writer, and successful examples of exceptions were all discussed.

This week Camela Thompson is joined by Lance Thompson and Dr. Steve Matthewson to discuss horror movies. Their assignment was to watch Insidious, Insidious: Chapter 2, Tucker & Dale vs. Evil, and Big Ass Spider. Because of the array of movies covered, they discuss many more films, the tropes in horror, and why we are drawn to fear.

This week Father Les Carpenter, an Episcopalian priest, joins Z.D. Gladstone and Camela Thompson to discuss the presence of ghosts and demons in this world. He explains his belief that demonic influences look less like what Hollywood presents and more like corruption in power and negative social phenomenon. Racism was used as an example, and the cohosts found the argument very interesting. The haunting at Camela's house, why people seek to make spiritual connections, and his interesting opinion on Halloween were also topics of conversation.
