Subterranean crypts, ruined castles, decaying estates: enter the world of the Gothic, where the roots of modern horror dwell! Husband and wife duo Patrick and Lizzie, English majors at the University of Minnesota, met by chance in a Gothic horror course. They quickly fell in love over a mutual love of heavy metal, horror, and the occult. In Unhallowed, they bring their passion for classic horror stories to a modern audience. JOIN US.

It took until our seventh episode to jump back over the pond and cover a work by lauded Gothic horror writer, Edgar Allan Poe. We discuss the narrator’s psychotic break in “The Tell-Tale Heart,” compare it to some modern works, and Patrick embarrasses Lizze (and himself) with a passionate spoken word rendition of Cannibal Corpse’s “Evidence In the Furnace.” Leave us a rating and review on iTunes Connect with us on social media: Goodreads Twitter Instagram YouTube Support the Show: Patreon Amazon Affiliate Link PayPal Crypto Currency: Bitcoin: 1DorTMaSyuo7E9no36uY4qEnQr5Gxh7TPN Ethereum: 0xd4C80d15a6F0575E7508e21d46Fee3F2Bec5a3cD Basic Attention Token: 0xd4C80d15a6F0575E7508e21d46Fee3F2Bec5a3cD Litecoin: LbtzEf1r3TSKJDxFfs5iAGAyVJF9zExXyz Dash: XjNCQtatVJDPaqBBeAkHwSEpT2rfxohHSg Qtum: 0xd4C80d15a6F0575E7508e21d46Fee3F2Bec5a3cD Show Notes: “The Tell-Tale Heart” [Full Text] Edgar Allan Poe [Poetry Foundation] Edgar Allan Poe [Wikipedia] Delores Claiborne [1995] (Amazon Affiliate Link) Delores Claiborne by Stephen King (Amazon Affiliate Link) “Evidence in the Furnace” Lyrics [Cannibal Corpse] --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/unhallowed/support
For the run-up to Halloween (the greatest holiday of the year), we review one of Patrick's absolute favorite short stories, and a piece that helped inspire Stephen King's Pet Semetary--"The Monkey's Paw" by W.W. Jacobs. Just what makes this story so unsettling? We think it's because of what Jacobs leaves to the reader's imagination.

We zoom forward over 100 years, from the Castle of Otranto to the bowels of Victorian England to discuss a lesser-known work by the Great Charles Dickens, The Signal-Man. We also discuss a classic element of the Gothic: premonitions of death.
