In this episode of How I Met Your Monster, we continue our Masked Up triple feature with Mike Flanagan's 2016 horror thriller Hush, starring Kate Siegel. As horror fans, we couldn't resist sinking our teeth into this tension-packed thriller, where silence plays just as big a role as the masked killer. But don't worry, we're here to lighten the mood with plenty of roasts and off-the-wall humor.We chat about Flanagan's knack for creating gripping horror, especially with Siegel's powerful performance as Maddie, a deaf and mute writer trapped in a deadly game of cat-and-mouse. Between admiring the film's eerie atmosphere and roasting each other (and Maddie's cooking), we had a blast breaking down why Hush has become a modern horror favorite.If you're a fan of horror podcasts that mix scares with laughs, this episode is one you don't want to miss!

Wrapping up our “Folk Around and Find Out” triple feature, join us as we brave the Stonerich Cavern in Ken Russell's loose (in more ways than one) adaptation of Bram Stoker's pagan horror novel, THE LAIR OF THE WHITE WORM, starring Peter Capaldi, Amanda Donohoe, Hugh Grant, Sammi Davis, and Catherine Oxenberg. The film is a surreal and visually stunning horror-comedy based on the legend of The Lambton Worm. We discuss the connections between the ancient pagan beliefs and the cyclical nature of life and the power of nature over humanity. Oh, and we find out that Doctor Who's Peter Capaldi is actually a past version of Harold Ramis.Check out "The Loathsome Lambton Worm" on Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-loathsome-lambton-worm/id1483582989 Make sure to subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or anywhere you get your podcasts.Want to support the show and save 20% on Fangoria?
