Description

Our #1 focus, besides having an absolute blast talking about horror, is digging deep into the movies we love to uncover little-known stories, obscure trivia, fascinating history, and behind-the-scenes facts that even the most devoted horror fans might not know!

While the hosts have a special fondness for the legendary Universal Studios horror films of the 1920s through the 1950s, our love of the genre extends far beyond the walls of Dracula's castle and Frankenstein's laboratory. From the gothic atmosphere of Hammer Horror to the gritty world of grindhouse classics, iconic slashers, and everything in between, we're celebrating the films, filmmakers, and monsters that have shaped horror history.

The Borgo Pass Horror Podcast has always been about more than just watching movies. It's about sharing our passion for the genre, preserving its incredible history, and connecting with fellow horror fans. We're extremely interactive with our listeners through social media and always welcome movie suggestions, questions, feedback, and spirited discussions.

Welcome to the Pass. Enter it freely and of your own free will.
