🩸 NEW EPISODE ALERT! 🩸

First love, Filipino folklore, New Orleans in 1999, and a family curse that makes falling in love a whole lot more complicated. 👀

This week on the Spooky Frog Podcast, we’re diving into Twice Removed by Zee Lacson! 💀❤️‍🔥 This YA horror romance blends the butterflies of first love with Filipino folklore, exploring cultural identity, family, and what it means to feel caught between two worlds. Because falling in love is hard enough without a supernatural family curse complicating things!

And speaking of New Orleans… 👀 The Goth Barge crew will be heading there NEXT WEEK! So we’re getting into the spirit early with a little literary horror from the city that knows a thing or two about the macabre. ⚜️🦇

CAN’T WAIT UNTIL NEW ORLEANS? Neither can we!

🧛‍♀️ Come dance with us THIS SATURDAY aboard the Lady Caroline in Cleveland for a vampire dance party on Lake Erie! 🌊🖤

🖐️ ONE LITTLE HANDSHAKE. ONE VERY BAD IDEA.

What if getting a taste of the afterlife was the best high of your life? And what if you just couldn’t stop?

This week on the Spooky Frog Podcast, we’re heading to Australia for Talk to Me (2022), the supernatural horror film from Danny and Michael Philippou that turns a party trick into a full-blown nightmare. All it takes is an embalmed hand, a few words, and the willingness to let something else inside. What could possibly go wrong?

We’re talking possessions, grief, bad decisions, and what happens when the dead are a little too eager to make contact. Plus, we’re putting our survival skills to the test and finding the perfect horror book companions to this movie to keep the nightmares going.

🖐️ Would YOU take your turn with the hand?
