"Stories hurt, stories heal." - Stella Nicholls
If you are a Gen Xer and don't remember desperately trying to check out the Scary Stories books from the library, are you even ok??? Just kidding. Sort of. Even if the books weren't your thing, you can appreciate the shock and awe of the illustrations done by Stephen Gammell. Andrea and Melissa definitely have a long-standing relationship with the books, but had not yet seen the 2019 film. It turns out, this was a great trip through the nostalgia of the books, while enjoying them woven together in a movie! Even if you haven't seen the movie, this episode is such a fun listen for those of us that remember Alvin Schwartz's strange tapestry of folklore and horror.
Remember, don't you ever laugh as the hearse goes by...….. but laugh as much as you want listening to this episode!
