Hey kids! Did you ever notice how polarizing ghost stories can be? Some people believe in them, some people don't, and some people think the stories are bizarre tales of incompetent parents ruining their children and having torrid affairs. Find out who felt that way and who didn't this week as we discuss the 1982 "classique nouveau" haunting story, "Poltergeist".
Hello, spoopy folks! We are so excited to pop by and wish you a very happy Thanksgiving, and we are ALSO happy to continue our age-old tradition of celebrating by inviting Bob over to torture him with a true crime story! We have gotten into some crazy stories here at My Spooky Gay Family on Thanksgiving, but we have never gotten quite this... shocking. This week we are discussing the infamous Master Butcher himself, the German cannibal Armin Meiwes. Enjoy! ***PLEASE NOTE*** - This episode contains descriptions of violence and mutilation that some listeners may find disturbing or upsetting. Listener discretion is advised.
Hey kids! This week we're going paranormal historical, and discussing one of the most haunted places in the United States. We are doing a deep dive into the history and hauntings of Eastern State Penitentiary- everything from its conception, famous prisoners, and infamous ghost stories, to our own personal experiences at Terror Behind the Walls... and beyond! Enjoy!
Welcome back, friends! This week we're very passionately delving into one of the most iconic 90s slashers to follow the success of Kevin Williamson's hit "Scream". We're very lovingly discussing the beloved slasher, "I Know What You Did Last Summer"! We discuss everything from Pissi's fear of relinquishing control, to just how spooky Christmas is, from turkey dumplings, to whether or not Julie is a big whiny baby. Get into it!
Hello, kids! Thanks so much for your patience while we worked out a technical issue! This week we're discussing a popular phenomenon that has intrigued many people for many years, one that has even garnered attention from the likes of the Addams family! We're discussing the perplexing topic of the Bermuda Triangle! We cover everything from ocean farts to aliens, all the way down to more local "triangles", so enjoy, and let us know about your local triangles!
Happy Halloween, ghouls! We are officially at the end of the 13 Weeks of Halloween, and we at My Spooky Gay Family thought that the only way to celebrate was with a HUGE episode... so we are happy to share a very special interview with the Queen of Halloween, the star, heart, and legs behind Elvira, the Mistress of the Dark herself, Cassandra Peterson! In this episode, we chat with Cassandra about her new memoir, "Yours Cruelly, Elvira: Memoirs of the Mistress of the Dark". We chat about everything from coming out as queer, to living in a haunted house, to sharing a treehouse with a gun fanatic. It was a joy to chat with this amazing horror icon, and an interview you won't want to miss. And as a very special added bonus, we went a step further and invited Sam Irvin, the director of Elvira's sophomore film, "Elvira's Haunted Hills", to stop by and chat about his career, his experience working with two of the biggest names in horror musical comedy, and what makes this movie the perfect cult classic to catch this Halloween as it's re-released on blu-ray! Enjoy this Halloween episode, kids! These conversations were so much fun, and definitely two for the books.
Happy 13th week of the 13 Weeks of Halloween, spoopy folks! We couldn't help but feel that this week deserved an extra special celebration since we've finally reached the reason for the season. As we all prepare for Halloween, it seems the only way to set the mood for All Hallows Eve is to turn off the lights, grab a spot by the fire, and listen to a very spooky story... so we're gonna give you one! On this episode we invite Johnny and Tyler from the podcast That's Spooky! to join us for a discussion about a true ghost story that actually happened to the Spooky Gay siblings many years ago. We've never told this story on the podcast, and we may have even prepared an extra special rendition for you. So lock your doors, grab a flashlight, and get ready to get spooky!
Hello, kids! This week we're diving into one of the seemingly most divisive movies we've encountered here at My Spooky Gay Family in a while. Many people hated it vehemently, many loved it unconditionally, but everyone has had an opinion about the 2021 sequel to 2018's Halloween, Halloween Kills. Did we like it? Did we hate it? Which John was our favorite? You'll just have to listen to find out! ****SPOILER ALERT****: This episode contains spoilers about crucial plot points, character developments, and scenes from Halloween Kills. Please don't listen before watching the movie! - Glenn
Hello ghouls! As we get nearer to Halloween, we're all looking for creepy movies that stir up that familiar chilly feeling with a dash of nostalgia, a big old helping of comedy, and an armful of lovably eccentric characters... what better example is there than Barry Sonnenfeld's 1991 classic movie about a spooky homecoming, "The Addams Family"??? We get into the nitty gritty of why we love these all together ookie folks, and why character actors save the world. Enjoy!
There is a chill in the air, we're all getting ready to brave the winter, and the season is getting spooky! We all love Halloween, but how do the witchy folks celebrate this time of year? We're going to find out this week when Sam and Pissi are joined by druid practicioner, witchy guru, and friend of the pod Patty Kiernan! We chat about everything Samhain, easy ways to celebrate, and druid resources for interested listeners. For those interested, you can learn more about ADF (Ár nDraíocht Féin) at http://www.adf.org.
Kids, we have got a DOOZY of an episode for you this week! To celebrate our 100th episode, we decided to call one of our very best friends, and a huge friend of the pod... the one and only multi-talented director, musician, producer, and co-host of the amazing podcast "Movie Dumpster", Joe LaScola! He's joining us to discuss one of the most polarizing movies in the Halloween franchise, Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers. We discuss everything from how much gas it took to fill a buick in 1988 to Dr. Loomis' corkscrew into (and out of?) dementia. This is a particularly joyful episode, so happy 100 episodes! Here's one for the books.
Hey kids! We're excited to be back and preparing for the spookiest night of the year. Are you going to be a pony, or an EVIL pony??? A baby, or... an EVIL baby!? We've got some advice on how to have the most successful costume at any spooky soirée this year. Take note, and enjoy!
What do the Grand High Wizard, Professor Quirrell, Muldoon from Jurassic Park, every soap opera ever made, and munchkins all have in common? The answer is THIS WEEK'S EPISODE. We start with a fairly candid conversation about our experience with the anniversary of September 11th, but quickly segue into the mind-f***ing masterpiece that is James Wan's newest film, "Malignant". **PLEASE NOTE**- This episode contains spoilers of the movie, including key moments, plot points, and story elements. Please watch the movie before listening! You've been warned.
Happy Halloween, ghouls! It is officially September, and we are SO excited to be ringing in the Halloween season by easing on down the road toward All Hallows' Eve with a trip to a very seasonal, and very spooky, new Halloween favorite... Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark! We cover everything from Alvin Schwartz and Stephen Gammell's bone-chilling books to Guillermo Del Toro and Andre Ovredal's frightening film. We illustrate just why these stories have stuck with us from our childhood and why we can't get enough of them as adults. Stay spoopy!
Hello kids! We're SO excited to be reviewing one of our favorite new movies as part of the 13 weeks of Halloween... Candyman 2021! We get into it about everything from murders to mythology, from gentrification to police violence in the U.S. **Please be aware before listening**- We are discussing pivotal plot points, moments, spoilers, and appearances in the new film Candyman (2021). If you have not seen the movie yet, you may want to hold off listening to avoid spoilers!!! You've been warned. Also, to all of our beloved listeners of color- the discussion does address, in relation to the film, Black Lives Matter and current events related to the movement (with respect, and without any graphic content) which some listeners may find upsetting or triggering. Listener discretion is advised.
We are sashaying right on through the 13 weeks of Halloween with a conversation about one of Pissi's favorite horror legends- The Headless Horseman. We discuss everything from classic literature to Irish folklore, from headless ghosts to silent films. This prolific character scares us out of our minds and has us losing our heads, and we're gonna get down to the nitty gritty to tell you why!
Kids, we've got an EXTRA special treat for you today! We invited friend of the pod, fashion icon, actor, producer, and amazing personality Curly Velasquez to join us for a very witchy conversation. Curly chimed in to discuss one of our very favorite movies, The Craft, and how spiritualism and witchcraft made us into the queirdos we are today.

Hey spoopy people! This week we're coming at you with a heavy case, but a surprisingly lighthearted conversation. This is a true crime discussion as we jump into the case of the Golden State Killer, the OG nightstalker, and the guy whose name is shockingly close to Pissi's.
