Foot Off the Bed Podcast is a horror/thriller movie review and paranormal/true crime comedy podcast created by two cousins born and raised in Brooklyn, NY, who have a love for all things horror, weird, insane, and creepy. In each episode, we’ll discuss and review one horror/thriller movie and one paranormal/true crime story that the movie is inspired by, based on, related to, or similarly themed. Imagine Khadijah and Maxine from Living Single with a Brooklyn twang, and it’s like we’re having a sleepover!So put on your footie pajamas, grab a snack, and slip under the covers and join us every other Monday as we chat about the best, worst, and sort of “meh” horror and thriller movies and the stories they made us think of. And remember, don’t leave your foot off the bed!If you have any movie suggestions, email us at footoffthebed@gmail.com
