I probably have mentioned 83 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,040 Speaker 2: it at different times, but I would definitely say there 84 00:04:54,080 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 2: are some key horror moments for me. I had uncles 85 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 2: who would show me wild to play, you know, Classic Chucky. 86 00:05:03,200 --> 00:05:05,039 Speaker 3: That was definitely early one. 87 00:05:05,640 --> 00:05:09,400 Speaker 2: We had a bootleg tape bootleg tape of Texas Chainsaw 88 00:05:09,480 --> 00:05:12,240 Speaker 2: Massacre because that was banned in the UK till two 89 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,640 Speaker 2: thousand and one, so that definitely had a taboo moment. 90 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:17,400 Speaker 2: But I would say the most important. Those are both 91 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 2: very scary and obviously not great start horror. But I 92 00:05:20,520 --> 00:05:23,279 Speaker 2: will say the movie for me that I have talked 93 00:05:23,360 --> 00:05:26,080 Speaker 2: that do not watch Texas Chainsaw Massacre if you are 94 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 2: like a child. But those are not the recommendation. Maybe 95 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:39,360 Speaker 2: I'm just I'm not your parent, But I would say 96 00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:43,480 Speaker 2: for me, the most resounding movie that got me into 97 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:45,840 Speaker 2: horror and the genre as a whole as a child. 98 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:50,359 Speaker 2: In the UK, we only had four channels when I 99 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:53,920 Speaker 2: was growing up, BBC one, BBC two, ITV and Channel four, 100 00:05:54,279 --> 00:05:57,320 Speaker 2: and those channels would regularly show kind of the same 101 00:05:57,400 --> 00:06:01,240 Speaker 2: movies every Bank holiday, every time there was a long weekend. 102 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 2: And one of the movies that they would always show 103 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 2: is the very strange Disney sequel to Wizard of Oz 104 00:06:09,640 --> 00:06:14,280 Speaker 2: that was called Return to Oz and it stars Ferusia 105 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:18,479 Speaker 2: Bulk as Dorothy. And when the movie begins, she is 106 00:06:18,600 --> 00:06:21,960 Speaker 2: in an insane asylum and she is about to get 107 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 2: electric shock treatment, but she escapes with the help of 108 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:29,640 Speaker 2: a chicken who takes her back to Oz. This is 109 00:06:29,640 --> 00:06:34,360 Speaker 2: a real movie, guys, real movie, and takes her back 110 00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:36,480 Speaker 2: to Oz where everyone has been turned to stone by 111 00:06:36,520 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 2: an evil queen named mom Bey, who turns everyone to 112 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 2: stone and then chops off people's heads and replaces her 113 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 2: own head with other people's heads. It's still one of 114 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:50,520 Speaker 2: the scariest movies I've ever seen. I love it deeply. 115 00:06:51,000 --> 00:06:52,880 Speaker 2: For years, it was very very hard to find. I 116 00:06:52,920 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 2: have it on VHS, I have it on DVD, but 117 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:58,960 Speaker 2: fantastic news it is now on Disney Plus. One of 118 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:00,040 Speaker 2: the movies that got kind. 119 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:01,040 Speaker 3: To terrify all. 120 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,160 Speaker 2: The thing that actually scared me the most was none 121 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:08,120 Speaker 2: of what I've talked about. It was a creation that 122 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 2: I do believe they made up for the movie. A 123 00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:12,160 Speaker 2: lot of this stuff is from the frank Os later 124 00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:15,320 Speaker 2: Wizard of Oz books, but they there is this creation 125 00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:21,520 Speaker 2: called the Wheelies, and they go Their hands and legs 126 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:26,559 Speaker 2: are both like stilts that are attached to like roller 127 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 2: skates and they look kind of like ravers or something, 128 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,560 Speaker 2: but they kind of chase Dorothy around Oz and when 129 00:07:32,560 --> 00:07:34,800 Speaker 2: they come the music gets very chaotic and I was 130 00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,520 Speaker 2: so so scared of them. But that was for me 131 00:07:39,200 --> 00:07:43,040 Speaker 2: definitely the kids movie that I watched a lot that 132 00:07:43,160 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 2: I it made me understand horror. I have memories of 133 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:50,240 Speaker 2: being scared of it, but I also started to think like, well, 134 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 2: this is the kind of horror that I like, and 135 00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,320 Speaker 2: I you know, Ferujah Bolk and that movie as Dorothy 136 00:07:55,400 --> 00:07:57,840 Speaker 2: is essentially like a ten year old final girl, like 137 00:07:57,920 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 2: she's gonna save the day, So I and a lot 138 00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:05,800 Speaker 2: about it from horror. So that's definitely like was my 139 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 2: real introduction rather than like the kind of spooky night 140 00:08:11,320 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 2: stuff that I shouldn't have watched that really just scared me. 141 00:08:14,560 --> 00:08:16,280 Speaker 2: That was the one that made me think like, oh, 142 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:20,320 Speaker 2: maybe this is something that I could enjoy like, but 143 00:08:20,400 --> 00:08:22,480 Speaker 2: it still scared me like a lot and I would 144 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:25,520 Speaker 2: kind of hide behind my hands.

I will say, let's add that to 248 00:14:07,840 --> 00:14:10,280 Speaker 2: the list too, because that was a big movie for 249 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:14,880 Speaker 2: me as a kid, Liam Neeson. Tons of people in that. 250 00:14:15,480 --> 00:14:17,800 Speaker 2: Maybe Matthew Lillard is in that movie. I may be 251 00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,320 Speaker 2: imagining it. If not, he's definitely in the thirteen Ghost 252 00:14:20,320 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 2: remake and he's wonderful. But The Haunting, I watched that 253 00:14:23,400 --> 00:14:26,080 Speaker 2: at my friend Alex's house, and I remember really deeply 254 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 2: feeling like I was worried about watching it, but then 255 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:31,400 Speaker 2: when I watched it was totally watchable and like an 256 00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:34,920 Speaker 2: easy way. Catherine Zia Jones is in that movie. I 257 00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:39,680 Speaker 2: watched it recently. Again, she's fantastic.

Joelle, what is what was your early horror 261 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:51,440 Speaker 2: entry point? 262 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 3: Sure? Okay, So I had a father who was uninterested 263 00:14:58,400 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 3: in what was age appropriate. He was just very excited 264 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:06,360 Speaker 3: to share a movie. So I if I like Zack 265 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:11,239 Speaker 3: the memory of like her film watching right, my earliest 266 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:14,880 Speaker 3: memory is I'm like four, I think, yeah, I would 267 00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 3: have been four watching Jurassic Park.

Alec Baldwin in nineteen ninety four 277 00:15:46,120 --> 00:15:52,520 Speaker 3: made a movie called The Shadow No Talk there. That's 278 00:15:52,520 --> 00:15:58,040 Speaker 3: a comic, sharp toothed im like metal demon that comes 279 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 3: to light. It's so scary. I had nightmares and my 280 00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 3: dad was like, how are you afraid of this movie? 281 00:16:03,800 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 3: He was embarrassed and child me. He was like, it's 282 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:08,600 Speaker 3: not even scary, it's a movie, and I was like, 283 00:16:08,680 --> 00:16:10,120 Speaker 3: it's horrifying. 284 00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:13,400 Speaker 2: No, No, you just touch on something really interesting there, 285 00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:17,000 Speaker 2: which I do think another entry point to horror is 286 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:18,840 Speaker 2: like movies that are not meant to be scary. I 287 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:21,320 Speaker 2: always remember I went to see The Mask at the 288 00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:24,320 Speaker 2: cinema and at the end when the villain, this guy 289 00:16:24,400 --> 00:16:26,840 Speaker 2: put on the mask and he kind of looked like Frankenstein. 290 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:31,400 Speaker 2: I was so so scared of that. That definitely was 291 00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:34,000 Speaker 2: like way scarier to me than some of the out 292 00:16:34,040 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 2: there adult stuff i'd seen that I probably didn't really understand. 293 00:16:37,120 --> 00:16:39,440 Speaker 2: So I think you touch on something really good. And also, 294 00:16:39,520 --> 00:16:41,680 Speaker 2: of course bringing it back to comics, Joel, you're sort 295 00:16:41,680 --> 00:16:43,840 Speaker 2: on brand. You're so fantastic. You know what we need. 296 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 3: I try to stay in this, trying to stay in 297 00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:46,360 Speaker 3: the realm. 298 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:48,920 Speaker 2: Anyway, what's your next one? What's your next one? We're 299 00:16:48,920 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 2: coming up with quite a good list, and I will 300 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 2: say this list will be in the show notes, so 301 00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 2: then you can easily go through it. 302 00:16:55,280 --> 00:17:00,600 Speaker 3: Yes, so okay, So then I get shown, uh trap, 303 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 3: what is the sit here? It's a it's like a 304 00:17:03,880 --> 00:17:09,359 Speaker 3: war movie with the bugs movie to you, not a 305 00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:12,240 Speaker 3: terrifying movie. But saw it as it was coming out 306 00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:15,640 Speaker 3: way to really the whipping scene freaked me out, and 307 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:17,840 Speaker 3: but again there was and then the bugs. I don't 308 00:17:17,880 --> 00:17:20,280 Speaker 3: like bugs, like this is so much, But something about 309 00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:23,800 Speaker 3: like challenging yourself to sit down and watch and stay 310 00:17:23,840 --> 00:17:27,280 Speaker 3: through to the end became like really addicting to me. 311 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:29,560 Speaker 3: I was like, oh, I can watch things that terrify me, 312 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,360 Speaker 3: get the feeling of fear with the knowledge of safety, 313 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:35,600 Speaker 3: and I think I got really into that. So then 314 00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,680 Speaker 3: I got like my actual like starter horror I think 315 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:40,840 Speaker 3: would be like The Nightmare before Christmas. I would just 316 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:43,960 Speaker 3: repeat the intro over and over again a long time 317 00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:49,040 Speaker 3: ago long. But now then it seemed I was take 318 00:17:49,119 --> 00:17:53,399 Speaker 3: me away to a magical fantasy world. Is that scary 319 00:17:53,440 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 3: and also romantic?

Instead, 443 00:24:26,080 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 2: it's about surviving a really terrible job which we all 444 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 2: have to do. 445 00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:34,480 Speaker 1: And maybe getting down with a predators. 446 00:24:34,680 --> 00:24:37,919 Speaker 5: You know, you know, you. 447 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:57,480 Speaker 2: Guys have kind of perfectly segued into us, into the 448 00:24:57,520 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 2: why of it all.

I will also 452 00:25:16,000 --> 00:25:20,440 Speaker 2: say for myself, I definitely did have some road bumps 453 00:25:20,520 --> 00:25:25,159 Speaker 2: on the way because I have I definitely struggle with 454 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:30,199 Speaker 2: like rumination and I saw this absolutely fantastic movie, seminal 455 00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,520 Speaker 2: movie called Cube at Sleepover when I was around eleven 456 00:25:33,600 --> 00:25:37,720 Speaker 2: years old, and it absolutely just destroyed me for like 457 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,560 Speaker 2: two years where I was just like I couldn't I 458 00:25:41,640 --> 00:25:45,280 Speaker 2: was so worried about the idea of waking up somewhere else, 459 00:25:45,560 --> 00:25:48,520 Speaker 2: like not being in control of where I was. And 460 00:25:48,560 --> 00:25:51,240 Speaker 2: now years later I'm like, oh, it's because your parents 461 00:25:51,320 --> 00:25:53,160 Speaker 2: were going through a divorce and everything was like mad 462 00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:56,320 Speaker 2: fucked up at home. So even in that way, even 463 00:25:56,359 --> 00:25:58,280 Speaker 2: though at the time it felt like it was solely 464 00:25:58,320 --> 00:26:01,760 Speaker 2: about cube and this terrifying nature of those kind of 465 00:26:01,760 --> 00:26:04,280 Speaker 2: trap rooms horror where you wake up somewhere else, my 466 00:26:04,520 --> 00:26:07,480 Speaker 2: body and my brain were using horror to process something 467 00:26:07,520 --> 00:26:09,919 Speaker 2: I was going through. So even though it wasn't a 468 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:12,719 Speaker 2: pleasant experience, I look upon that as a way that 469 00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 2: even back then, horror was helping me deal with something 470 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:21,639 Speaker 2: I couldn't process in real life. So I was using 471 00:26:21,880 --> 00:26:24,480 Speaker 2: fiction to process it, which I think is a huge 472 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:27,320 Speaker 2: thing for a lot of us. And I do think 473 00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:30,160 Speaker 2: as well that you both touched on something really fantastic, 474 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:34,440 Speaker 2: which is the nature of like women in Horror and 475 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:39,520 Speaker 2: the Final Girl and why that is so kind of 476 00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:41,960 Speaker 2: profound for a lot of us. Like Joelle, you said, 477 00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 2: at the end, she gets to survive, you know, like, 478 00:26:45,960 --> 00:26:48,760 Speaker 2: isn't that just all what we want really at the 479 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 2: end is like can we can we survive something terrible 480 00:26:53,680 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 2: that happens to us, and do we get to do 481 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:56,240 Speaker 2: it in a way that. 482 00:26:56,480 --> 00:26:59,240 Speaker 3: It's almost always like a bright new day exactly. 483 00:26:59,320 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 2: I think a lot that. 484 00:27:00,440 --> 00:27:02,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's always like the sun is coming out there 485 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 3: getting away, even if the monsters are fully consumed or crushed, 486 00:27:07,520 --> 00:27:10,320 Speaker 3: like they're trapped in a way that immediately gives them 487 00:27:10,359 --> 00:27:13,640 Speaker 3: like a head start to get away. And it's beautiful. 488 00:27:13,840 --> 00:27:16,320 Speaker 3: It's one of the reasons this might be a segway. Sorry, 489 00:27:16,359 --> 00:27:18,399 Speaker 3: the Drag Me to Hell? What's so profound for me? 490 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:24,720 Speaker 3: And I think potentially the starter horror it's oh man, 491 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 3: like you just you think she's out there? 492 00:27:27,880 --> 00:27:31,040 Speaker 2: I think, yeah, I think you touch on something really 493 00:27:31,040 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 2: important because as you grow with horror, we know the tropes, 494 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:38,439 Speaker 2: we learn the tropes, we love the tropes, we know 495 00:27:38,520 --> 00:27:41,240 Speaker 2: the final girls. Then we start delving into like where 496 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,040 Speaker 2: does the final Girl come from? Well, actually it comes 497 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:46,000 Speaker 2: from black exploitation horror. It comes from Scream, Dracula Scream, 498 00:27:46,080 --> 00:27:50,000 Speaker 2: it comes from you know, uh ganjen Hess like and 499 00:27:50,040 --> 00:27:52,679 Speaker 2: as you learn more, then a movie like Dragged Me 500 00:27:52,720 --> 00:27:56,360 Speaker 2: to Hell, which sets up a trope you think you understand, 501 00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 2: but then takes it away from you and takes away 502 00:27:59,200 --> 00:28:03,200 Speaker 2: the expectation becomes very powerful and becomes very shocking. 503 00:28:03,480 --> 00:28:05,680 Speaker 3: I have a question for you guys as creators of this. 504 00:28:05,800 --> 00:28:08,200 Speaker 2: That's why I was gonna go to Joe so clever, 505 00:28:08,400 --> 00:28:10,679 Speaker 2: Oh my god, not so linked. 506 00:28:10,760 --> 00:28:15,000 Speaker 3: So I'm curious of, like we know the power of horror. 507 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,760 Speaker 3: We've talked a lot about how it's impacted our lives. 508 00:28:17,800 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 3: Maybe these big, like monumental changes in our lives, and 509 00:28:21,240 --> 00:28:23,960 Speaker 3: that sort of guided us in how we you ourselves 510 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 3: When you're crafting horror for younger audiences, do you guys 511 00:28:29,080 --> 00:28:31,639 Speaker 3: We kind of asked arl Stein the same question, do 512 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,640 Speaker 3: you guys have like a directive in mind? Is there 513 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,840 Speaker 3: something you're trying to do with the horror insha? 514 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,000 Speaker 2: I would say go for it, because I do feel 515 00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 2: like the supernatural feel guides. They feel like you are 516 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:46,720 Speaker 2: trying to make that connection known to kids, and you're 517 00:28:46,760 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 2: giving them this space where it's okay to explore. So 518 00:28:49,560 --> 00:28:52,040 Speaker 2: is that something that you were like intentionally going in 519 00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:54,480 Speaker 2: with that you wanted to make them feel less alone? 520 00:28:54,600 --> 00:28:56,320 Speaker 2: Or is that something that just comes from your own 521 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:59,080 Speaker 2: experience that you end up putting into these books. 522 00:29:00,400 --> 00:29:01,800 Speaker 4: I think a little bit of both. 523 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:09,320 Speaker 1: I think that I like don't want like I always 524 00:29:09,480 --> 00:29:11,800 Speaker 1: used to say, like I don't want to sugarcoat things 525 00:29:11,840 --> 00:29:17,280 Speaker 1: because things are like there's some important aspects to a 526 00:29:17,360 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: lot of what goes into the supernatural, what goes into 527 00:29:20,600 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 1: our open mindedness, and what goes into having an open 528 00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: heart that like you had you you would want to explore. 529 00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 1: So with a lot of the Supernatural books, the thing 530 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:32,040 Speaker 1: that I really wanted to get through to everybody, and 531 00:29:32,120 --> 00:29:35,200 Speaker 1: I know the entire core team did too, was like 532 00:29:35,760 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 1: keep an open mind, keep an open heart, and just 533 00:29:38,200 --> 00:29:41,040 Speaker 1: keep an open, like you know, perspective of like what 534 00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:45,240 Speaker 1: could happen in the world. For me writing it, it's 535 00:29:45,440 --> 00:29:48,400 Speaker 1: very difficult because I'm just like I just I want 536 00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:52,000 Speaker 1: to tell you all the gross, gritty gory details about 537 00:29:52,040 --> 00:29:56,320 Speaker 1: like anything that's going to happen. And I even kind 538 00:29:56,320 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 1: of like fought a little bit to have Chilling with Ghosts, 539 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:04,600 Speaker 1: like a little section just about death, yeah, because I 540 00:30:04,720 --> 00:30:07,280 Speaker 1: was just like, we have to we have to tell 541 00:30:07,320 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 1: them like this is what it is, like, this is 542 00:30:10,720 --> 00:30:13,959 Speaker 1: just how it goes anyway. So like yeah, so it's 543 00:30:14,040 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 1: kind of just like from the start to the finish, 544 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:18,680 Speaker 1: this is what we need and this is what I 545 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:20,840 Speaker 1: want to bring to the table. And I think because 546 00:30:20,840 --> 00:30:24,000 Speaker 1: of my own experience with horror in general, and then 547 00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 1: also like keeping that open mind and open heartness for 548 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 1: you know, going through all these supernatural journeys and having 549 00:30:31,720 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 1: like some supernatural things like happen to me and myself. 550 00:30:34,560 --> 00:30:37,280 Speaker 1: So it was kind of just like I just want 551 00:30:38,080 --> 00:30:43,000 Speaker 1: everybody to have a good time, but also this is 552 00:30:43,040 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 1: so hard. Yeah, so I want to break. I wanted 553 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:52,880 Speaker 1: to bring that dual perspective, but yeah, it's it's a 554 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:55,880 Speaker 1: but in me writing it, it's a little difficult because 555 00:30:55,960 --> 00:30:57,800 Speaker 1: like again I just want to bring you all of 556 00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 1: the gory details about like this is what happens when 557 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 1: you get mammifha. 558 00:31:02,560 --> 00:31:05,080 Speaker 2: I mean stuff like when I was a kid, I 559 00:31:05,160 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 2: had I had gotten a copy, a second hand copy 560 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,560 Speaker 2: from like a car boot sale, of the Poisonous Handbook, 561 00:31:12,800 --> 00:31:14,360 Speaker 2: and it was just like all that it was just 562 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:17,840 Speaker 2: really scary things. In England we have this great series 563 00:31:17,880 --> 00:31:20,360 Speaker 2: called Horrible Histories where they do tell you about how 564 00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:24,240 Speaker 2: you get mummified and which kings died from people shoving 565 00:31:24,480 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 2: like hot spikes up their butts while they were sleeping 566 00:31:28,240 --> 00:31:31,200 Speaker 2: and all this kind of grotesque stuff. And I think 567 00:31:31,240 --> 00:31:34,520 Speaker 2: now like kid's horror has transitioned into this place of 568 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:39,720 Speaker 2: YouTube of five Nights at Freddy's, games like Granny, these 569 00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:44,040 Speaker 2: kind of terrifying things that are helping kids find that 570 00:31:44,040 --> 00:31:47,959 Speaker 2: that space. I have yet. I've done one true kid's horror, 571 00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 2: which was The Haunted High Tops, and that was really 572 00:31:50,920 --> 00:31:53,000 Speaker 2: great because it had a framework of like a Twilight 573 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:56,520 Speaker 2: Zone esque twist. So I think that was something that 574 00:31:56,560 --> 00:31:58,800 Speaker 2: was really fun for me to play with. And with that, 575 00:31:58,840 --> 00:32:02,680 Speaker 2: there was some really interesting thing balance, because, like you're saying, Shure, 576 00:32:02,720 --> 00:32:06,960 Speaker 2: you want to show something that's scary or real, but 577 00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,240 Speaker 2: you've got to work out like what can I show 578 00:32:09,280 --> 00:32:13,080 Speaker 2: what's acceptable? And in that story, as the title may 579 00:32:13,120 --> 00:32:16,440 Speaker 2: have hinted, it was about a pair of haunted trainers 580 00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:20,240 Speaker 2: who haunted sneakers, and the idea was when he put 581 00:32:20,280 --> 00:32:22,960 Speaker 2: them on, he would become really fast, he would get 582 00:32:23,160 --> 00:32:26,640 Speaker 2: you know, good good at pee people are celebrating him, 583 00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:29,360 Speaker 2: but he can't control them, kind of like the Red Shoes. 584 00:32:29,440 --> 00:32:33,320 Speaker 2: And so there was a moment where I wanted to 585 00:32:33,360 --> 00:32:36,320 Speaker 2: show how do you show that something scary is happening, 586 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,600 Speaker 2: because so far we've only really seen the good. It's 587 00:32:38,720 --> 00:32:41,560 Speaker 2: it's eerie, but it's good. He's good. At class people 588 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:44,400 Speaker 2: his friend is like, bro, something's going wrong here. So 589 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 2: I was like, well, I think I'm going to have him. 590 00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:50,040 Speaker 2: We established early on that he loves animals, so on 591 00:32:50,080 --> 00:32:51,600 Speaker 2: the way home, I'm going to have it so that 592 00:32:51,920 --> 00:32:55,040 Speaker 2: the shoes try and kick a dog, like they try 593 00:32:55,080 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 2: and kick this dog that he knows in the neighborhood. 594 00:32:57,400 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 2: And it was such a fine balance of like making 595 00:33:00,240 --> 00:33:03,480 Speaker 2: sure that he didn't actually kick the dog, like he 596 00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:06,400 Speaker 2: the shoe takes over and he kicks, and he manages 597 00:33:06,440 --> 00:33:09,240 Speaker 2: to stop it and he kind of kicks a trash can, 598 00:33:09,520 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 2: but like with my editor, we had to be like, 599 00:33:11,160 --> 00:33:13,800 Speaker 2: he can't hurt the dog, Like that's like the step 600 00:33:13,880 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 2: too far, you know. And I think that kind of 601 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,960 Speaker 2: thing is very interesting because I do think for a 602 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:20,239 Speaker 2: lot of us when we're young, a lot of our 603 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,880 Speaker 2: empathy is towards like animals, and those are the stories. 604 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:26,200 Speaker 2: Like one of the things that traumatized me the most 605 00:33:26,240 --> 00:33:29,880 Speaker 2: before Cube was The Fox and the Hound. By the 606 00:33:30,000 --> 00:33:32,760 Speaker 2: end of it, I was just absolutely like I was 607 00:33:32,800 --> 00:33:36,840 Speaker 2: done for. There was absolutely no me like it was 608 00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:40,480 Speaker 2: it was the children. Yeah, like Disney has done a 609 00:33:40,480 --> 00:33:42,360 Speaker 2: lot of damage to a lot of us. But Joelle 610 00:33:42,400 --> 00:33:46,400 Speaker 2: as you as somebody who is also a storyteller and 611 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:51,600 Speaker 2: who is into genre storytelling, Like what draws you to horror? 612 00:33:51,640 --> 00:33:55,520 Speaker 2: Why is that something that you want to explore as 613 00:33:55,600 --> 00:33:58,400 Speaker 2: a genre for all ages? Like what is it that 614 00:33:58,640 --> 00:34:00,800 Speaker 2: makes you want to say, this is the thing I'm 615 00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 2: going to invest my time in. 616 00:34:04,160 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 3: I think, in the same reason that I was like 617 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:08,839 Speaker 3: drawn into true crime more than I create a lot 618 00:34:08,880 --> 00:34:14,200 Speaker 3: of history books that specifically center around war. I am 619 00:34:14,719 --> 00:34:20,799 Speaker 3: vastly curious about the depths of destruction man is capable of, 620 00:34:21,680 --> 00:34:25,800 Speaker 3: and I think that horror gives us an outlet to 621 00:34:25,840 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 3: explore that in a safe way, and it also has 622 00:34:29,440 --> 00:34:35,680 Speaker 3: great survival tips. I really appreciate its, like, actually, people 623 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:38,799 Speaker 3: can be really cruel. Be aware here, like people that 624 00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:41,240 Speaker 3: smile might not be smiling you for the right reasons. 625 00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:45,680 Speaker 3: Like that sort of vibes like sort of like a 626 00:34:45,719 --> 00:34:50,440 Speaker 3: candy man as situation, where like the villain is not 627 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,719 Speaker 3: who you think it is. Like that to me is 628 00:34:52,760 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 3: really appealing because I think I I grew up very 629 00:34:55,920 --> 00:34:59,600 Speaker 3: sheltered and with a lot of privilege and love, and 630 00:34:59,640 --> 00:35:03,400 Speaker 3: I horror sort of brought me into the real world 631 00:35:03,840 --> 00:35:06,840 Speaker 3: in a way that was necessary as a kid, you know, 632 00:35:06,880 --> 00:35:09,920 Speaker 3: I think if you're for all really for all children, 633 00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:12,960 Speaker 3: like at some point you learn, hopefully not too soon, 634 00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:14,680 Speaker 3: but like the world can be a really scary place, 635 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:18,680 Speaker 3: and horror gives us a space to process that fear 636 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:22,399 Speaker 3: and try and try to figure out how we want 637 00:35:22,400 --> 00:35:25,080 Speaker 3: to manage it. And I like that a lot about horror. 638 00:35:25,120 --> 00:35:26,719 Speaker 3: I think a lot of my favorite I was thinking 639 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:30,200 Speaker 3: about what stories brought me into horror, because the movies 640 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:32,600 Speaker 3: are really about like the visual images and like the 641 00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:37,640 Speaker 3: immediate sensation, whereas horror for me in books is much 642 00:35:37,680 --> 00:35:40,040 Speaker 3: more cerebral and like my favorite books were like The 643 00:35:40,040 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 3: Green Ribbon and The Yellow Wallpaper over and over again, 644 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:46,960 Speaker 3: classic writing like Seminal Horror. 645 00:35:47,120 --> 00:35:48,240 Speaker 4: Wait, I'm sorry. 646 00:35:48,440 --> 00:35:51,600 Speaker 1: You also love the Yellow Wall Oh yeah. 647 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 3: At a very early age I was reading it obsessively. 648 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:58,360 Speaker 4: Nobody that I ever known.
