Some of history's most famous people had remarkably eventful afterlives. Charlie Chaplin's corpse was stolen from his grave and held for ransom. Thomas Paine was dug up and carried across the Atlantic. Pieces of Beethoven and Schubert disappeared in the name of science. And René Descartes somehow ended up buried without his head. In this episode, we uncover the bizarre true history of famous corpses that were stolen, moved, studied, scattered and lost. Along the way, we meet grave robbers, obsessive admirers, ambitious scientists and restless ghosts, and discover why a final resting place isn't always quite so final.

The Context of White Supremacy welcomes Andy McPhee. A former critical care nurse and educational healthcare publisher, Andy McPhee, who's classified as a White Man, has also written four nonfiction books for young adults and written or edited more than 750 newspaper and magazine articles. We'll discuss his 2026 publication, The Doctor's Riot of 1788: Body Snatching, Bloodletting, and Anatomy in America. McPhee examines a 1788 melee caused by New Yorkers discovering a White Woman's corpse had been stolen. We use this event to examine the White Supremacist history of looting black burial grounds. Gus T.'s beloved Medical Apartheid, written by the genius Harriet A. Washington, devotes a meaty section to the well-recorded history of Whites' stealing black bodies for experimental and anatomical purposes. Washington tells us that White medical colleges were often strategically located in regions with high populations of black people. During our discussion, we deconstructed how the historical practice of White people stealing black bodies continues in the 21st century with a highly unregulated international trade in body parts.This provides context for the missing skull of Sade C. Robinson as well as the missing organs of Kendrick Johnson in Georgia. Gus T. made a point to ask Mr. McPhee why he used the term "niggling" to describe a scene of conflict in the text. After initially pretending he quoted someone else, McPhee admitted this was his word choice alone. He offered many unsolicited apologies and said he likes to think of himself as an "anti-racist." He easily conceded that niggling is mighty close to niggras. Fuller does explicitly suggest that we avoid terms like "negative" & "negate" because these terms are phonetically and semantically similar to the Racist insult reserved for black people. #TheCOWS17Years #Philadelphia #BodySnatcher #CounterRacism #Niggling #GlobalWhiteSupremacy #NewYork #ShawnUtsey #ChrisBaker #GrandisonHarris #HarvardMedicalSchool #Strapping #JeffreyDahmer #Oddities Call-In Number: 720.716.7300 Code: 564943#

What makes a great remake? Faithfully honoring the original, completely reinventing it, or improving it so dramatically that the first movie becomes obsolete? This week, Griffey, Heath, Sam and Sophia draft the most messed-up movie remakes of all time. With The Thing and The Ring banned from competition, the board is wide open for body horror, slashers, alien invasions, vampires, psychosexual thrillers and one deeply disturbing Lindsay Lohan family comedy. Expect heated arguments over The Fly, Evil Dead, The Hills Have Eyes, Rob Zombie's Halloween, Nosferatu, Dredd, Friday the 13th and Invasion of the Body Snatchers, plus a compelling case for why The Parent Trap secretly qualifies as horror. Along the way, we thirst over Judge Judy, confuse Harry Styles with the Jonas Brothers, learn about Sam's fixation on powerful calves and discover Martin Scorsese's forgotten masterpiece, Infernal Desires. Whose final lineup wins the draft? Vote in the comments!

Author Robin D. Laws joins us to discuss The Crawling Horror by Thorp McClusky, a protoplasmic pulp tale that prefigures Body Snatchers and The Thing!
Why were fairies said to steal healthy babies? What happened to the children they left behind? And could the fairy folk return at the end of your life... to steal the dead as well? In this episode of the Ghosts and Folklore of Wales podcast, I explore one of the strangest beliefs in Celtic folklore. Alongside the familiar tales of changelings and stolen children, we'll uncover an extraordinary tradition claiming that fairies also carried away the dying, leaving one of their own behind to be buried instead. Along the way, we'll discover the simple charms once believed to protect children from the fairy folk, compare traditions from Wales, Scotland, England and Ireland, and ask why these stories survived for so many generations. If fairies could steal babies, why would they return at the end of someone's life to do the same again? Coming up: Welsh folklore, fairy lore, changelings, Celtic traditions, supernatural beliefs and some truly remarkable stories from Britain and Ireland. Tune in now... if you dare!

Hey kid, there’s a spider in your bed! From Kingdom of the Spiders (1977) We’re going back to horror history class with Episode 212: Slashers Come of Age and Horror Finds Religion 1975-1979. Seven years ago, in the early days of the Scariest Things, we did some horror history, diving into some of the more obscure titles that you may not be aware of. We stopped at the early seventies, and then went on a very long hiatus. But now we are back with some (maybe) forgotten gems from 1975 to 1979. Friend of the podcast Ian Parker joins Eric and Mike in this deep dive. It took a while, but we are back to our chronology of horror movies. We have picked up the baton and are moving our movie history lessons forward. The seventies were a turbulent period in history. The Hayes Code, now dead and defeated, is no longer. The early seventies started playing around in the margins with movies that pushed the boundaries of what was possible. The advent of the massive summer blockbuster began to separate movies into big-budget and indie-budget films, and horror was part of that trend. Jaws (1975) and The Exorcist (1972) proved that with the right director, scary movies could bring in big money and be legitimate critical darlings as well. The doors opened for studios to pour big money into movies that would become The Omen, Alien, Invasion of the Body Snatchers, and Carrie, landmark movies all. Big-name actors with great pedigrees were coaxed into performing in big studio horror projects. Gregory Peck did The Omen. Faye Dunaway at the height of her career did The Eyes of Laura Mars. It wouldn’t be long before Jack Nicholson got cast in The Shining (1980), but we’ll get to that one later. Having said all that, the studios weren’t quite all-in yet. There were a few pet projects out there. But the domain of the horror movie was still in the dilapidated old downtown movie houses and drive-in theaters. You couldn’t yet rent movies for home viewing. If you wanted to go see independent horror movies, you had to be willing to get down and dirty. The Cineplex wasn’t yet ready for showing off the gory delicacies that were being cooked up in the era when the boundaries between R and X hadn’t been settled yet. Slasher Movies Come of Age Horror never forgot its roots. You could still make a low-budget movie, with no-name actors, scare some teenagers, and turn a profit. But a guy in a rubber suit wasn’t going to cut it anymore. Real explicit violence and raw visceral horror are now how to make a memorable mark. Following in the footsteps of Black Christmas (1972), Last House on the Left (1972), and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974), the slasher film was going to find the sweet spot of low budget and mass appeal. Enter Halloween (1978). Stabbing and spooking were now moving into the suburbs. On a budget of $325,000, Halloween would go on to earn $47,160,000. On a budget of $325,000, Halloween would go on to earn $47,160,000. Hollywood noticed. The impact of Halloween would be felt primarily in the early eighties, but a few filmmakers picked up on the trend early. The slasher films influenced directly in the wake of Halloween include: Don’t Go Into the House (1979), Silent Scream (1979), Tourist Trap (1979), Driller Killer (1979), Prom Night (1980), Maniac (1980), Friday the 13th (1980), Don’t Go into the Woods (1981), Madman (1981), Happy Birthday to Me (1981), My Bloody Valentine (1981), The Burning (1981), The House on Sorority Row (1982), and The Slumber Party Massacre (1982). All of these films featured a masked killer (usually) and some sort of stabbing weapon (usually), and oblivious teen victims (usually), with sexual activity usually as part of the equation (usually)… and a final girl (usually). That’s the modern slasher template. It didn’t take long for filmmakers to figure out the formula. Our great directors who would lead horror for the next twenty years were in place. John Carpenter, Tobe Hooper, and Wes Craven had their knives out and were ready to dominate the field. This genre still felt fresh. The sequels had yet to take control of the industry, and the concept felt raw and scary. This trend would find its killer’s stride in the 80’s, but this is when the slasher movie came out of the shadows. Horror Gets Really Weird, and Discovers God While the sixties still had a safety belt on, and the eighties went for the reliable thrills, the seventies was a period that allowed directors to stretch out their ideas. The early seventies also contributed a number of strange films, but it is hard to match the back half of the seventies with the likes of The Manitou (1976), Phantasm (1979), Hausu (1977), and Eraserhead (1977), which brought wildly original concepts to the table. Religion was a big thing too. Conventionally, there were movies like The Omen and The Exorcist that were, while very scary, using traditional good-and-evil concepts. This era also had a more counter-cultural and artistic interpretation of holy horror. God Told Me To (1976) and The Visitor (1979) were gonzo strange concepts that never found an audience, but were challenging with their takes of what celestial beings might be. What is Jesus, really? For that matter, what is God? An alien? Perhaps. Truly strange, blasphemous stuff. Perhaps it was all the hallucinogens that were popular of the era. Cosmic horror found truth in a far-out metaphysical moment. It wouldn’t take long for the politicians and the morality police to put an end to such wild concepts. But in truth, the conservative backlash was waiting in the next decade. In the seventies, the liberal notions of acceptable content had plenty of room. That would be coming to an end soon, especially when movies could come home on cable TV and VHS.

Listen to the full episode What do films like Dracula, The Truman Show, The Matrix, Invasion of the Body-Snatchers, Being John Malkovich, and Night of the Living Dead all have in common? Science fiction and horror bend our everyday experiences and beliefs around mind and body, sensory perception, identity, and reality itself. But it turns out that many fictional tropes (zombies, vampires, cloned imposters, reality-simultations, and shapeshifters) may be rooted in rare brain disorders. These conditions, often caused by injury or disease, can make people prone to becoming convinced that their loved ones are imposters, the same person (in elaborate and convincing disguises) is following them everywhere, their surroundings are an artificial duplicate of a real place, or even that they themselves are already dead. Once our perceptions are sufficiently distorted, our minds invent explanations that confound reality. Might these overlap with supernatural and conspiratorial beliefs? Julian blends storytelling, cultural references, and observations from psychiatry and neurology to take you on a fascinating journey. You'll learn about: A woman in a 1903 Prague clinic who patiently explained to staff that the clinic was a perfect replica—not the real clinic itself A man in 1970's Sacramento who believed he was a real-life zombie and went on to commit a series of grisly crimes A woman in 1920's London who believed that two famous French actresses were following her everywhere in hyper-realistic disguises—and controlling her mind One man in LA and another in Utah that tragically killed their own family members because they believed they were imposters These cases drive to the core of how humans experience self, relationships, and the structure of reality.

Believe it or not, there was a time when instant access to hundreds of horror movies didn't exist. Scary thought, huh? Before the late 1950s, unless you caught a movie in the theater, you probably weren't going to see it again, especially when it came to the classic monster films like Dracula and Frankenstein. But in October 1957, Universal released 52 of its horror films to television in what became known as the Shock Theater package. To help promote the broadcasts, television stations were encouraged to create "horror hosts" to introduce the films. Simply put, it exploded, and helped give birth to the Monster Kid generation. Then, the following year, Famous Monsters of Filmland magazine debuted, and there was really no turning back. Now you could watch these monsters in the safety of your own home. It was a far cry from today's world, where you can hop on a computer or streaming service and have thousands of horror titles at your fingertips. But this was the beginning of modern horror fandom: getting your weekly fix of classic monsters on television, reading Famous Monsters, building Aurora monster model kits... life was pretty great. In this episode, we discuss the importance of this moment in horror history and why it was such a game changer for horror fans. Films mentioned in this episode: Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948), The Addams Family (1964-66), The Black Cat (1934), Blood of Dracula (1957), The Curse of Frankenstein (1957), Dark Shadows (1966-71), Dawn of the Dead (1978), Day of the Dead (1985), Dracula (1931), The Exorcist (1973), Frankenstein (1931), The Gorgon (1964), Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956), The Invisible Man (1933), I Was a Teenage Frankenstein (1957), I Was a Teenage Werewolf (1957), Jaws (1975), The Jungle Captive (1945), King Kong (1933), The Last Warning (1938), The Mummy (1932), The Munsters (1964-66), The Mystery of Edwin Drood (1935), Night of the Living Dead (1968), Return of Dracula (1958), Rosemary's Baby (1968), Smokey and the Bandit (1977), Son of Kong (1933), The Spy Ring (1938), Star Wars (1977), Texas Chain Saw Massacre (1974), Them (1954), The Wolf Man (1941)
In this episode, we dive into the surprisingly dark history of anatomical training; from grave robbers to the infamous instances where body snatching became something even more sinister. But it's not all Victorian crime stories.Richard divulges what it's really like learning anatomy from a donated body, why experienced surgeons still attend cadaver workshops decades into their careers, and how cadavers continue to shape everything from facelifts to br**st reconstructions even now.Whether you're fascinated by medicine, anatomy, medical history, surgery, or simply enjoy a slightly morbid story, this episode is packed with fascinating insights into a world most people never see.Craving more?

As we mark another July anniversary of the 1947 Roswell incident, we're revisiting one of our most controversial and fascinating conversations. While Roswell is often framed as a battle between extraterrestrial visitation and Project Mogul, author and researcher Nick Redfern presents a far darker possibility involving secret Cold War experiments, human test subjects, missing records, and a government cover-up that may have helped shape the modern UFO myth. In this classic interview, Redfern discusses the evidence, witnesses, and intelligence sources behind his books Body Snatchers in the Desert and The Roswell UFO Conspiracy. Whether you agree with his conclusions or not, this conversation challenges assumptions about the world's most famous UFO case and reminds us why Roswell remains at the center of the UFO mystery nearly eight decades later. As new UAP disclosures continue to emerge, it's the perfect time to revisit one of the most debated theories ever proposed.

This week on Scarred For Life, Andy and Dave are joined by writer, director and producer Alexander J. Newall, the founder of Rusty Quill and the creative force behind the hugely successful horror podcast The Magnus Archives.Alex explains how a childhood obsession with unsettling cartoons, classic horror films and British sci-fi shaped his love of the genre, before diving into the unique challenges of making audiences genuinely afraid in audio, theatre and games. From the eerie existential dread of old Hanna-Barbera cartoons to why immersive theatre might be the most effective horror medium of all, it's a fascinating deep dive into what actually makes something scary.His three scars are the terrifying hopelessness of Invasion of the Body Snatchers, the unsettlingly familiar Britain of 28 Days Later, and the enduring brilliance of The X-Files, which he credits with fundamentally changing the way he thinks about storytelling. Along the way, there's chat about creepy service stations, cults, liminal spaces, philosophical zombies, board games, and why some horror lingers long after the credits roll.To join Scarred Club and get fortnightly bonus episodes, ad-free listening and access to the members forum – sign-up here – https://scarredforlife.supportingcast.fmSend us a voice note on WhatsApp - 07457 404 279Follow us on socials:Scarred For Life - Facebook / InstagramProduction Company - Lock It In StudioAndy Bush - Twitter / Instagram Hosted on Acast.

Send us Fan MailThis month on Eerie Essex, we're venturing through the creaking gates of Essex's graveyards to uncover the stories lurking among the headstones.Join us as we dig into the fascinating world of grave folklore, exploring the superstitions, legends and strange customs that have surrounded burial grounds for centuries. We'll investigate the mysterious caged grave in East Mersea and ask why a young girl's resting place was enclosed in iron. Was it protection from grave robbers, fear of the supernatural, or something even stranger?Speaking of grave robbers, we'll also meet the so-called "resurrectionists"; the enterprising (and deeply unpopular) body snatchers who prowled churchyards under cover of darkness, supplying fresh cadavers to medical schools and giving many Victorians nightmares about what might happen after they were buried.Our journey also takes us to East Horndon, where local legend tells of a fearsome dragon that made its lair in a churchyard before being slain by Sir James Tyrell. It's a tale of monsters, heroism and a reminder that even Essex graveyards were not always occupied solely by the dead.Along the way we'll encounter ghost stories, curious traditions, forgotten beliefs and the age-old question of whether some things really do linger long after death.So grab a lantern, watch your step among the tombstones, and join us for an episode packed with dragons, resurrectionists, restless spirits and enough graveyard lore to raise the dead.If you have any more information about these stories or want to share your own experience, please contact us via eerieessexpodcast@gmail.comYou can support us on Ko-Fi and Patreon:https://ko-fi.com/eerieessexhttps://www.patreon.com/EerieEssex....or by leaving us a review.Support the show

The Orlando Pride suffered through a miserable week on the road, losing to both 2026 NWSL expansion teams — Boston Legacy FC and Denver Summit FC — conceding penalties in each match, continuing to get no goals in the run of play by anyone not named Barbra Banda, and sustaining even more injuries.We discuss the two losses, look back at our score predictions, make our selections for Player of the Match for each game, and try to figure out what is going on with the midfield and how some players who showed such promise in 2024 no longer look like the same people out there on the pitch. We're not ruling out an Invasion of the Body Snatchers scenario.This week's mailbagbox asked about Kerry Abello firing off a flip throw in her return from injury, what area of need Caitlin Carducci most needs to address to help the Pride, and more. Remember, you can ask us anything by hitting us up on Twitter at either @TheManeLand or @SkoPurpSoccer and using the hashtag #AskSkoPurp. You can use that same hashtag and hit @TheManeLand.bsky.social up on Bluesky. Or you can visit our show page, scroll down, and fill out the handy form. We'd also appreciate any ratings or reviews you can leave wherever you get your podcasts, and if you do that on Apple Podcasts, we'll find them easily and read them on the show.After the mailbagbox, we look ahead to the team's upcoming trip to San Diego to play the Wave. Although the California sun has been kind to the Pride the last few years, the 2026 squad seems far too out of sorts to compete with a team that beat Washington despite not having some of its key players. But you never know what might happen when soccer boot meets soccer ball.We look at the series history, discuss the teams' places in the league, provide our key matchups, and make our final score predictions.If you'd like to support our independent writing and podcasting efforts, we'd love to have you as a subscriber or donor over at our Buy Me a Coffee site.Here's how Episode 123 went down:0:15 – Orlando went on the road, suffered more injuries, and got swept by the two NWSL expansion teams in an awful week.20:18 - The mailbagbox is quite smitten with Kerry Abello's flip throw, and who could blame it?31:57 - The Pride go back on the road to face the San Diego Wave, the league's best team at the moment.
"Where you gonna go, where you gonna run, where you gonna hide? Nowhere... 'cause there's no one like you left." In the latest episode of AT THE MOVIES IN THE 90s, your host Mark McManus is joined by previous guest, horror podcaster Emma Arneil, to look at Abel Ferrara's 1993 sci-fi horror, Body Snatchers. Remaking the classic Invasion of the Body Snatchers narrative, this gives the terror a chilling modern, middle-American sheen. But why is it less vaunted or remembered than its predecessors?

The title of this classic sci-fi thriller might be a bit misleading. It's not about kidnappers or grave robbers. Get this: strange plants from space land on Earth and begin copy-pasting humans! That means there are two YOUs! Only the original you doesn't get to survive! The duplicate you isn't really "you", it's an alien intelligence with a secret agenda to take over our society. And they get you when you sleep! This is years before Freddy Krueger got everyone downing coffee like their lives depended on it. Sounds terrifying, don't it? Maybe I can lighten things up a little and share my insights on this superb 1978 remake starring Donald Sutherland and the OG Spock, Leonard Nimoy! Things are about to get highly illogical, but stay awake at all costs!
On the morning of November 7, 1878, it was discovered that the tomb of wealthy Gilded Age merchant A. T. Stewart had been opened and his body taken. Although this was shocking, the idea of graves being opened and bodies stolen was not new, and in fact, it became a fairly common occurrence during the 19th century and before. Bodies were snatched for a variety of reasons, including ransom, but more often to serve as specimens for the expanding medical profession to use in research and training. In this episode, cemetery historian and tour guide James Henry takes us on a journey through the 19th century, sharing tales of the most infamous bodysnatchers, Burke and Hare in 1820s Scotland, the attempted body snatching of President Abraham Lincoln, and the lengths 19th-century folk went to to ensure their loved ones' graves were safe from criminals. Additionally, we'll examine how the practice of body snatching influenced writers such as Mark Twain, Robert Louis Stevenson, and Charles Dickens. And James shares the mysterious ending of the curious tale of just what happened to the body of A.T. Stewart.

This week's Body Snatcher Season takes us to the 90s and to a film we both watched far too young. The Faculty sees Kevin Williamson bring his trademark characterisation to the sci-fi horror genre with Robert Rodriguez taking the helm in a move that serves as a modernised Invasion of the Body Snatchers. Featuring a star studded cast including a young heartthrob Josh Hartnett, Robert Patrick and a pre Lord of the Rings Elijah Wood, there's a late 90s soundtrack, some iffy CGI and an interesting rendition of The Things blood sample scene. But after all these years, how does The Faculty stand up Remember to hit that subscribe button and leave us a lovely review.

[School of Movies 2026] The Robert Rodriguez series continues. After Desperado and then From Dusk till Dawn, Robert stayed in the Horror milieu and was shunted onto the Scream bandwagon by his regrettable Dimension Films keepers, the Weinsteins. Written by Kevin Williamson (who wrote Scream and recently directed the seventh in that undying franchise) this one brought a predatory serial killer vibe back to the high school, but with an alien infiltration plot from an earlier script. It's amazing that this one shaped up to be as likable and memorable as it did, and we put that down to Rodriguez and his enthusiastic direction, and the truly stellar cast of talented young people, including newcomer Josh Hartnett (who had only just finished Scream-aping Halloween H20, also from Dimension Films, also with a very familiar Marco Beltrami Score) Clea DuVall (who co-starred in lesbian cult favourite 'But I'm a Cheerleader' the next year), a pre-X-Men Famke Jansen, a pre-Furious Jordana Brewster, the always-fantastic Chris McDonald and Bebe Neuwirth, a T-1000-evoking Robert Patrick, a pre-Daily Show Jon Stewart and a pre-Fellowship Elija Wood. It's The Breakfast Club meets Invasion of the Body Snatchers, and it had all the cool kids shouting "F*ck you, t*tbags!" along with various other colourful turns of phrase in its dialogue.
Donald Sutherland is one of the most respected and versatile actors in film history, with a career spanning over six decades.
