38 - This Old (Possibly Haunted??) House
Manage episode 422106803 series 3564160
This week is all about the spooky ancestral homes as we talk about And Don’t Look Back by Rebecca Barrow and All the Dead Lie Down by Kyrie McCauley, two young adult novels about family homes and the dark secrets they hide. Topics include what constitutes a haunted house (does there have to be a literal ghost?), twisty mysteries, and the inherent queerness of the gothic genre.
(Also, as you may have guessed, we did NOT release this episode before traveling internationally despite our optimism about doing so in this recording.)
