  • 268 – Brennan LaFaro & The Darkness on the Edge of Town
    Feb 17 2026
    When is a zombie not a zombie? I don’t have a punchline to that joke. But something…something … revenant! Brennan LaFaro’s The Denizens is about a small southern town with a very unusual relationship with death. What precisely is the nature of the corpses roaming the woods, and what do they want with the living. You’ll have to listen to find out. What is certain is that this book gives Brennan and I a launchpad for a conversation about writing action-horror scenes, the ethics of suffering and pain, what comes after death, and all the horrible little small towns that inspired his own. Enjoy!

  • 267 – Wuthering Heights, with Agatha Andrews (from She Wore Black)
    Feb 10 2026
    This Valentine’s week, come for a walk up on t’moors with me and Agatha Andrews. I’ve invited Agatha, my friend and sister-in-Gothic, host of She Wore Black podcast, for a conversation about Wuthering Heights. It’s known as “the greatest love story ever told,” but that’s such nonsense. Instead we talk about mania and melancholy, hate and power, cannibalism and necrophilia… and we also look ahead to the Hollywood adaptation with bated (but amused) breath. Enjoy! Other books mentioned: David Copperfield (1850), by Charles Dickens The Brontës (1994), by Juliet Barker The Gabriel Hounds (1964), by Mary Stewart East of Eden (1952), by John Steinbeck The Vampyre (1819), by John Polidori The Favourites (2025), by Layne Fargo Support Talking Scared on Patreon Check out the Talking Scared Merch line – at VoidMerch Come talk books on Threads, Bluesky, and Instagram, or email direct to talkingscaredpod@gmail.com Learn more about your ad choices.

  • – Mama Came Callin, with Ezra Claytan Daniels & Camilla Sucre
    Feb 6 2026
    A bit of chaos on the show for the weekend. We start with one guest and end with two. And there’s a dude with an alligator’s head running amok! Mama Came Callin’ is the slasher/cryptid/mystery/noir graphic novel written by Ezra Claytan Daniel and illustrated by Camilla Sucre. It’s set in the swamps of Florida, amongst murky waters and dirtier histories. The three of us (eventually) talk about the horrendous racist truth underpinning the story, we discuss how two creatives can bring their distinctive skills to a singular vision. We hear about the joy and hustle of a multidisciplinary career, and Ezra gives us some insight into the writing room for the TV show Severance.
