Spellbreakers Ep. 140: The Chilling, Thrilling Sounds of a Spellbreaking Halloween
Description
Matt Trump celebrates Halloween in true Spellbreakers fashion with a nostalgic, spooky, and thought-provoking journey through decades of magic, media, and meaning. Broadcasting in costume and spirit, Matt revisits the eerie Disney album Chilling, Thrilling Sounds of the Haunted House before diving into a cinematic exploration of witches in pop culture, from Polanski’s haunting Macbeth to the charm of Bewitched and the romance of Bell, Book and Candle. Along the way, he muses on the evolution of Halloween itself, how it’s shifted from childhood innocence and neighborhood trust to modern horror and memes, and what that says about America’s cultural soul. Mixing humor, history, and philosophy, Matt examines how love redeems even the darkest tales and why every generation redefines “the witch” to reflect its own anxieties and desires. He closes the night with sponsors, poetry, and a heartfelt toast to the spooky season, reminding listeners that Halloween’s magic lives on in nostalgia, faith, and a good cup of Loaded Gun Coffee.
