217: Seance of the Slightly Inebriated Dead (feat. Portia Davis, Ghus & Cam)
With Steve out this week, Sean summoned three of our oldest friends. Bruce Christopher (aka Portia Davis), Brandon Coulter (aka Ghus), and Cameron Gawne (resident zookeeper and horror nerd) for a boozy séance and horror hangout.They kick things off with some horror news, covering the upcoming Alien: Earth series, Robert Eggers' now confirmed to take on A Christmas Carol, and A24’s terrifying Backrooms adaptation.Then things get paranormal (and kind of unhinged) as they summon the souls of the dead via a spirit board game (a horror movie themed 20 Questions where each of them channels the ghost of a slain horror movie victim, and the others try to guess who died horribly. Spoiler..they get progressively drunker and worse at it.)So come for the news, stay for the chaos. Light a candle, pour a drink, and join the séance!!!Follow Us on Social Media:Instagram & Threads: @mostlyhorrorpodTikTok & Twitter/X: @mostlyhorrorBruce Christopher: @brucechristopher, Portia Davis on Music PlatformsBrandon Coulter: @bscoulter_, @Ghus_Music, Ghus on Music PlatformsCameron Gawne: @CollectivecammySean: @hypocrite.ink on IG/TikTok, @hypocriteink on Twitter/XEnjoy this episode?
