Ghost Story (w/ Brendan Murphy)

Do we have a story to tell you! Gather ‘round as we tell the tale for four guys who cannot handle their polycule!! That’s right, we’re cracking open the Stephen King Universe adjacent novel adaptation, 1981’s GHOST STORY!! Huddled next to the fire with a snifter of brandy is editor and TikTok retro movie reviewer, Brendan Murphy (@MurphCo)!! Along the way, we dig into author Peter Straub’s road to a million-dollar payday, unpack why adapting the book proved to be so tricky, and we reopen our cinematic feud with the onscreen presence of Craig Wasson!! All this, plus bozo clusters, ghoul henchmen, chocolate ‘staches, tree snake tricks, non-apologetic night strangulation, Manitou-adjacent kimonos, the return of Dirty Peanut, World of Cinemagic tricks, mouth gifts, and take on a full-frontal edition of Choose Your Own Deathventure!! It’s an episode 10 years in the making - which makes sense since we’ve been doing this show for a DECADE NOW!!
