255 – Michael Wehunt & What If A Horror Film Broke Into Your House?
255 – Michael Wehunt & What If A Horror Film Broke Into Your House?Description
What’s even real anymore?
Some of the best horror writer’s ask that question. Some, like Michael Wehunt, live in the spaces in between.
Michael’s new novel, The October Film Haunt bends reality in fascinating ways, in a story about online legend, digital demons and analog horror – all the stuff that keeps me awake at night.
We talk about all of it, as well as formative found-footage movies, and whether we need a new ethics for online storytelling. It’s a deep, intelligent chat (just like the book).
Enjoy. Don’t open strange emails or watch unmarked VHS
tapes.
