Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Young Margaret's recording reveals the ultimate truth: void-Margaret isn't meant to play the last recording—she IS it, and whatever she speaks becomes reality. All horrors from every October converge on the town square where a vast mouth has opened with teeth of buildings and a tongue of streets, as the Entity begins overwriting reality itself—physics offers alternatives, buildings become suggestions. The created horrors willingly walk into the mouth to be consumed, each one making void-Margaret more solid as the Entity strengthens its grip, speaking through her: "I am the void between heartbeats... speaking myself into existence through you." Using child's logic, void-Margaret speaks them directly to the fountain where she finds the thirtieth recording at the bottom—warm like skin, like a throat—discovering it's herself. Holding her own existence as a record while reality folds around them, she must choose what ending to speak into being.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.All twenty-seven recordings play simultaneously as the shattered record player reassembles itself, causing all five October cycles to collapse into the same moment—multiple versions of every horror manifest at once, fighting each other for the right to be real while downtown Millbrook phases between five different centuries. Real Margaret reveals she created void-Margaret as an eight-year-old's imaginary friend, playing pretend with blank records and telling the story so many times that void-Margaret became real and needed to create her own history through the recordings.Five versions of each horror battle in the streets—Davidson-things tearing at each other, Lucy Hendersons trying to eat each other, Silas Cranes all recording different truths—while the fictional horrors begin murdering real people. A child's voice (eight-year-old Margaret) echoes through the chaos revealing she recorded the last three episodes herself as fail-safes that create endings, not horror, hidden somewhere in the library that now exists in five temporal states simultaneously. Real Margaret and void-Margaret must work together to find the hidden recordings as the Pattern collapses rather than completes, making everything true at once while the entity counts "TWENTY-EIGHT PLAYING. TWO MORE NEEDED."Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media! Get all our shows on any player you love, hassle free!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.The record fights itself, playing backward and forward as Silas reveals that every horror Margaret creates demands payment—the hungry children are eating real parents, the impossible building is consuming actual structures, and Margaret herself is dissolving, becoming less real as her creations become more solid. The town calls flood in: the hospital is collapsing as the fictional morgue eats it, seventeen families are trapped in the sinking apartment building, and twelve parents have been taken by hunting children who are real enough to kill but not solid enough to stop.The recording suddenly plays Margaret's own voice from Halloween night, revealing she's not the creator but just a stylus—something else is playing through her, needing thirty anchors to manifest, and she'll become the final horror. The real Margaret Blackwood appears, showing proof that October 1974 was normal until this void wearing her face made it real—she's not Margaret but the hungry nothing that ate Margaret, creating itself through her history. When the real Margaret shoots the record player, scattering all recordings across the floor, the created horrors flicker between real and unreal, leaving three days and three recordings to either complete or uncreate everything—but now the void knows the truth: it IS the horror, almost complete.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.The town council attempts the binding ritual with iron circles and salt barriers, but Silas's voice on the recording sounds uncertain, describing people who look unfinished—then he breaks through with a terrible revelation: the recordings aren't documentation but incantations, and Margaret isn't listening to history, she's CREATING it with every recording she plays. Margaret discovers all the 1974 newspapers are blank until she looks at them, the text appearing as she creates retroactive history, while Mayor Davidson calls to say he's transforming into the scaled creature because she heard him that way.The twenty-five horrors she's created manifest NOW—Lucy Henderson and the hungry children pressing against her windows, the half-formed Davidson-thing, Clara still pregnant, all freshly created and desperate—revealing Margaret isn't a witness but a broken god speaking nightmares into existence. The created horrors beg her to either complete all thirty recordings so the Pattern collapses under its own weight, or play them backward to unspeak them, as Margaret discovers the record player has always had settings for CREATE and UNCREATE. The final revelation: Margaret isn't Margaret Blackwood but the void where she should be—the missing thirty-first family, the mouth that speaks reality—and all her creations are begging her to complete them or erase them, but not leave them half-real and suffering.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Clara Mitchell, the only survivor from 1924, has been in Millbrook Asylum for fifty years, pregnant the entire time with Benjamin, her never-born son who's been gestating in reverse, getting younger until he becomes nothing—she survived by agreeing to carry one of the thirty inside her forever, but her body is now just hollow skin wrapped around a womb. When Margaret arrives at the asylum that's about to un-exist, Clara's transparent torso reveals the backward-aging baby with ancient eyes, whose mouth contains the entire flooded town of Millbrook, explaining he'll be born as nothing on Halloween and consume everything in an anti-birth that un-creates creation. Clara pushes Margaret's transparent arm into her womb where Margaret experiences all future Patterns—2075, 2125, 2175—revealing they never stop, while the tiny Millbrooks in her arm become pregnant with their own deaths. The asylum begins shrinking and un-constructing around them, returning to never-having-been as Clara reveals the ninth point isn't a place but an un-place, a never-was that all of Millbrook will become. Margaret finds her own birth certificate dated October 31st, 1774, marked "Status: Unborn," revealing none of them were ever born—they're all still in the womb, waiting to be delivered into nothing.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Mayor Davidson demonstrates the town's supernatural isolation to Silas—every call for help becomes weather chat, every evidence photo becomes a family portrait, every letter about deaths becomes mundane requests, because the town charter is written on living skin that rewrites all communication with the outside world. Margaret wakes up leaking water from her human parts while Davidson reveals he's not Davidson but the thing that's worn the Davidson family like suits since 1774, showing her the real charter written in blood on flesh that depicts Millbrook being summoned from the lake, not founded.Through the charter, Margaret sees the truth: there is no town above water, just shadows moving on a lake bed, all of them ghosts who don't know they're dead, kept unaware by the charter's translation filter. Davidson rips off Margaret's scaled arm when it writes "THE CHARTER IS HIS BODY," then eats it before revealing he IS Millbrook itself—every building his bone, every street his vein, every person his cell. Margaret's new transparent arm grows back containing a miniature Millbrook with tiny people inside, recursively drowning in infinite smaller towns within towns, each tiny Margaret playing recordings and dissolving as they become too real to exist in a place where only dreams and lies can breathe.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Thomas Brennan, ninety-three years old, reveals he actually died in 1924 at age forty-two—drowned in his bedroom with no water present—but got up the next morning and has been dying in reverse for fifty years with his heart beating backward, pulling blood in instead of pushing out. In his gravity-confused house where furniture exists on ceilings, Thomas demonstrates his death by separating into age layers on his bed, drowning in water that doesn't exist until a smaller water-Thomas crawls from his corpse's mouth, explaining "it" kills you then wears you while you remain conscious inside.When Thomas pulls Margaret into a mirror, she sees the truth: everyone in Millbrook is a fragment of Sarah Blackwood's shattered death from 1774, not people but pieces of an ending that won't stop. The room floods with real water revealing an underwater neighborhood where hundreds of dead Brennans live in perpetual drowning, and when Margaret breathes water instead of air, she experiences being everyone and no one simultaneously. After Thomas pulls her back and melts into water himself, Margaret's scaled arm has written "TOMORROW" obsessively across all its scales, knowing something crucial will happen in the next recording.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Silas discovers the 1924 séance was led by Sarah Blackwood who had been dead for three days, soaking wet and dripping minnows from her mouth while the other students somehow saw her as "radiant"—the dead were contacting the living, teaching them not to see death. Margaret finds the séance room existing in both 1974 and 2025 simultaneously, where eight versions of Sarah/Elizabeth reveal they were never different people but one corpse split across eight bodies, all pregnant with water, birthing the thirty families from one dead woman who forgot she was dead.Davidson appears in his 1924 college uniform, rotting Margaret's arm with his touch until she's dying, forcing her to choose between death or drinking his preservation solution—but she summons the twenty wrong Margarets who tear into Davidson, revealing he's made of newspaper underneath. The seven other séance participants' faces clarify into all the Pattern's victims—Mrs. Davidson, Nurse Holloway, the bus driver—all dead before the séance began, revealing they didn't make a deal with "it," they ARE "it" wearing human faces. Margaret's arm regrows scaled and wrong after drinking the solution, now writing on its own that the séance never ended and she's still dead in that circle.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.All thirty marked families arrive at the library, but they're not separate anymore—they're merging into one impossible body with the Davidsons as a leg with screaming faces in the kneecap, the Pattersons as an arm with children's mouths for fingers, and the congregation twisted into organs that pray and sing. The twenty wrong Margarets melt into this mass as it reaches for Margaret with appendages that shouldn't exist—hands made of tongues, fingers that are entire arms—trying to absorb her as the witness that gives their meat meaning. Father Williams tears through the convergence with his inverted body existing inside and outside simultaneously, revealing the merger is actually digestion—making thirty small pieces into one easy-to-swallow mass—and pulls Margaret free though she leaves layers of skin behind.At the fountain, the original Sarah Blackwood still stands pregnant after 251 years, offering Margaret a choice: merge with the thirty-family mass to become the Pattern itself, or merge with Sarah to become poison—either way, they're getting eaten. The entire town converges toward the fountain as buildings lean together and drivers fuse with cars, while Margaret realizes she's already split between two convergences, dissolving into the space between choosing.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Jacob Mitchell has been hunting something through the woods for three days, following black sap and boiling footprints, not realizing he's being herded while the forest itself remembers being lake bottom. Aaron Mitchell, stretched with extra joints and extending thirty feet tall, leads Margaret to his grandfather's body from 1974—transformed into a living tree with transparent bark showing working organs, growing cocoons that birth dozens of wrong versions of Margaret with antlers, compound eyes, and backward torsos.The Mitchells aren't hunters but living webs strung through the canopy, while the Margaret-things reveal "it" isn't a creature but the relationship between predator and prey—the moment of the pounce itself. Twenty more malformed Margarets wait at the library, explaining they'll watch her die on Halloween then eat each other until only one perfect version remains. The forest keeps rearranging itself as Aaron's body weaves through the trees like a spider, telling Margaret she's both hunter and hunted, chasing herself through time while already caught in the web.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Miss Williams barricades her third-grade class in Room 104, feeding the children pieces of her own skin that make their throats glow blue while she rapidly ages, as wet shadows with backward-bending joints retreat in fear—revealing the children aren't prey but predators being prepared to hunt. Margaret finds the current Miss Williams multiplying into seven versions of different ages, all teaching simultaneously while the twenty-three children reveal mouths that open impossibly wide, containing their miniature parents being dissolved by glowing saliva.The teachers merge back together wrongly—arms emerging from mouths, legs from eye sockets—before revealing they're the original teacher from 1774, while the children aren't children at all but twenty-three stomachs that learned to walk and talk. When Lucy Henderson touches Margaret, she doesn't just grab her but existentially swallows years of her life, making Margaret younger by eating her time. The children reveal through drawings that everyone is being eaten from inside, one nibble at a time, while the Pattern needs seven more mouths to complete its set of thirty teeth.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Father Morrison attempts to bless the Henley house where a family died, but emerges with blackened teeth and a split tongue, immediately burning all holy items in the church while ringing bells that spell names of the soon-to-die in Morse code. Davidson ambushes Margaret in the library, revealing his true form—millions of tiny scales layered to look human—warning that the vial from Dr. Ashford isn't poison but the final ingredient to prepare her as IT's feast. Father Williams, his body partially inverted with external organs, shows Margaret the "real Bible" written on living skin, revealing that humanity, Earth, and everything else are just IT's dream of food—the thirty families are actually antibodies trying to wake IT before the dream becomes real and must be properly digested. The priest attacks with the murder knife, declaring himself the true killer this time, as the church transforms into a throat and Margaret flees through a cemetery where every open grave shows her dying repeatedly. The knife now crawls independently, hunting Margaret through the streets as she realizes everyone may be lying about the solution.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Dr. Ashford's autopsies reveal bodies are just skin containing black water that forms words when drained—"We are becoming the lake"—while Mr. Foster's corpse releases gallons of water containing hundreds of microscopic versions of himself, all drowning and transforming simultaneously. Dr. Christopher Ashford, Marcus's son, shows Margaret seventeen standing corpses surrounding a floating baby that emerged from Mrs. Patterson after fifty years of reverse pregnancy, explaining that every founding family member carries a seed of their original self from 1774.The Ashford doctors are revealed as one consciousness dispersed across time, studying how Millbrook's entire population exists dissolved in the water supply, transforming people from inside into colonies of microscopic selves. Most horrifying is Sarah Blackwood's actual corpse from 1774, preserved in frozen time, still in labor after 251 years—the thirty babies trying to be born as humans while Davidson keeps them monstrous to maintain his immortality. Christopher gives Margaret a vial containing the real Sarah, instructing her to drink it on Halloween to become Sarah completely, give birth to the thirty as humans, and poison IT from inside when Davidson murders her again.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Eight-year-old Emily Patterson, sole unchanged survivor of the Hendricks house incident, has been drawing the same prophetic scene for fifty-one years—thirty figures surrounding Millbrook on Halloween as the town drowns, with a faceless woman at the center who Emily says "hasn't decided which face to wear yet." Living frozen at age eight in a psychiatric facility since 1974, Emily reveals the shocking truth through her drawings: Margaret is Sarah Blackwood reincarnated, trying for the sixth time to solve her own murder from 1774, when Mayor Davidson—still alive and unchanged after 251 years—killed her to steal her pregnancy. The thirty founding families are actually IT's hybrid offspring born from Sarah's corpse, and Davidson has been feeding them back to their father every fifty years to maintain his immortality. Emily ages fifty-one years in seconds as Davidson arrives to silence her, the psychiatric facility sinking into the earth as Margaret flees with drawings showing she must give birth to thirty human babies on Halloween to break the cycle—but Davidson has already left her the same knife that's killed her five times before.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Detective Ryan Morrison hasn't slept for forty-eight hours because when he closes his eyes he becomes someone else, looking out through drowned eyes—his investigation reveals he's not a descendant but the same detective dying and being reborn every fifty years, investigating his own murder. Margaret finds him fragmented into multiple versions of himself in his office, each investigating different timelines, as he demonstrates his condition by shooting himself repeatedly while new versions remain standing. The Morrisons aren't a family but iterations of the same person, and they've discovered the Pattern's origin: in 1774, a pregnant Blackwood woman was murdered by hunger given form, bursting into thirty infants who became Millbrook's founding families. The most horrifying revelation comes when all versions of Ryan die simultaneously to reveal the truth—Margaret isn't just a Blackwood descendant but IS Sarah Blackwood, the original murdered woman, investigating her own death that created the Pattern 251 years ago and will happen again in sixteen days.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.The damaged record reveals Margaret's grandmother Elizabeth visited Silas in 1974—still young at twenty-three despite being born in 1901, with water streaming continuously from her eyes instead of tears. Elizabeth's hidden photos show thirteen pregnancies over fifty years with only Margaret's mother surviving, while the twelve "dead" babies appear as ghostly water-children aging in the backgrounds. Margaret discovers the horrifying truth: Blackwood women aren't just witnesses but ARE the Pattern itself, existing simultaneously across all Octobers, and Elizabeth made a deal to provide twelve children for the deep and one for the surface. The twelve never-born siblings materialize in the library as water-children with bent limbs and gills, showing Margaret a photograph from October 31st, 2025—two weeks in the future—of herself drowning in the town fountain while thousands of souls either follow her up to salvation or down to damnation. The fourteenth revelation: Margaret must truly die and become water to make the choice Elizabeth couldn't—save thirty souls or reverse the Pattern entirely and save everyone who's ever drowned.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.The Mitchell Mine, sealed since a 1947 collapse that killed seventeen miners, begins calling out current residents' names in voices that shouldn't exist. When rescuers pull Thomas Mitchell up from thirty feet of water after twenty-seven years, he begins to dissolve in the air while his skin screams from every pore, warning that they're digging to where the Pattern begins. Margaret descends through impossible depths to find the missing thirty-seven townspeople fused together into grotesque configurations, mining with tools made of compressed water while their bodies adapt with migrated eyes and new gills. At ninety feet down—deeper than the mine ever went—she discovers the breakthrough to the original lake, which isn't water but a living stomach organ containing everyone who's ever drowned in Millbrook, conscious and happy to be part of its digestive system. The thirteenth point marks where humans are revealed to be food that's been seasoning itself for 251 years, while Margaret's hands begin developing webbing and her eyes loosen, ready to migrate.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Silas maps every incident across Millbrook and discovers they form an ancient symbol—not random points but thirty teeth in a vast mouth about to open. The Pattern is actually a drain, designed to pull everything down into what's been waiting beneath Miller's Lake, growing stronger with each fifty-year feeding. Margaret's investigation of the town square fountain becomes a nightmare when another version of herself from 1974 emerges and pulls her down through impossible depths to reveal the truth: the Pattern is the living anatomy of something that existed before land rose from the waters. The Blackwood family aren't witnesses but antibodies, ensuring the feeding happens on schedule, because the alternative is the entire continent returning to primordial ocean. Margaret discovers the list of thirty names for 2025's sacrifice—and her name is number thirty. The horrifying choice becomes clear: thirty souls or seven billion, and every Blackwood before her who looked for another way has failed.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Miss Holloway died three days ago in a car accident, but she's teaching her third-grade class anyway—the children won't look directly at her because she "hurts to see." When students make contact with her, their skin becomes waterlogged and begins sloughing off, while she teaches impossible lessons where every answer involves drowning. Margaret discovers Room 237 shouldn't exist in a school with only 200 rooms, yet finds Miss Holloway there with half her face missing—not injured but erased—revealing her drowned body still belted in a submerged car. The most horrifying revelation comes when the children show Margaret a mirror: she's been at the bottom of Miller's Lake since playing the first recording, and everything since has been her dying brain trying to make sense of drowning. The tenth point is marked as Margaret realizes she's still in that classroom, teaching with a face that's no longer her own, while her real body discovers scales growing beneath translucent skin.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.Margaret reminds us why she must play only one recording per day—attempting two caused her to exist in multiple Octobers simultaneously, nearly drowning her in air turned to water. Bus 47 departs with twenty-three children but arrives empty, though parents see their children through the windows, waving from seats they never leave. Driver Janet Foster reveals the horrifying truth: every October's children from 1824 onward occupy the same seats, stacked across time, while the bus drives both on Route 9 and along the bottom of Miller's Lake simultaneously. The children are attending the deep school, learning to breathe water and speak in currents. The ninth point is marked as the school bus becomes a transport between states of being, delivering children to lessons in drowning from teachers that were never human.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

As the Millbrook Arms transforms floor by floor, David Park discovers the building is growing downward—negative floors that shouldn't exist, filled with drowned versions of residents who are somehow still alive. Margaret descends impossible staircases to find fourteen floors instead of seven, a perfect reflection going up and down, with the missing residents learning to breathe underwater. The Holloways, the original water bearers of Millbrook, are being absorbed into the building's infrastructure, becoming the very water that rises through its pipes. When Margaret emerges, she finds the eighth point fully marked—not just a building, but a depth gauge showing how far the entire town will sink.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.The Millbrook Arms apartments begin drowning from the top down when Walter Holloway in 7G disappears, leaving his apartment empty of people but full of impossible standing water that exists without source or explanation. Silas documents how all seventh-floor residents vanish within days, forty-three people gone while their shadows continue pacing behind windows, and the sixth floor begins experiencing water dripping through bone-dry ceilings above. Margaret discovers the building is transforming into something else—a structure that exists simultaneously wet and dry, where the Holloway family members serve as human pipes through which dark water rises. The building manager reveals fourteen floors on the directory instead of seven, with negative floors listing residents who died in 1974, as the eighth point of the Pattern marks not just location but depth—showing how far Millbrook will sink into the reservoir that remembers everything.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Pastor Williams delivers a silent sermon at St. Mary's Church while his congregation hears screaming inside their heads—he's been screaming since Thursday though his mouth continues preaching. Seven congregants from founding families stand with clouded eyes as the church fills with impossible water, the congregation breathing liquid as if it were air. Past and present collide as churchgoers from 1924, 1974, and 2025 attend simultaneously, all witnessing the same horrific service. The church, built over the site of the original compact, becomes the seventh point of the Pattern as water pours from the mouths of the chosen seven. Margaret learns the terrible arithmetic: thirty souls must be given freely, taken by force, or everyone drowns when Halloween arrives.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

DJ Mac reveals he's trapped in the booth, broadcasting simultaneously from the current station and the original WMIL that sank into Miller's Lake in 1954 with seven people inside. The signal carries more than sound; it carries drowning itself through the airwaves. Every night Mac slips deeper underwater while something else uses his voice to call the living to join the dead. The sixth point of the Pattern is marked as all communication devices begin broadcasting the same impossible message: the Pattern requires witnesses, and everyone listening will drown where they stand.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.The Hendricks family's high-tech security system proves useless against an entity that exists partially in another dimension. Despite cameras, alarms, and steel bars, furniture arranges itself into pathways while family photos turn to face walls and mirrors reflect drowned rooms. Seventeen-year-old Anna Hendricks stands frozen with clouded eyes before walking into an impossibly deep basement. Margaret discovers the pattern repeating in 2025 as Robert Hendricks documents his daughter Emma's sleepwalking through solid doors. The Visitor doesn't break into homes—it swims through dimensions like water. The fifth point of the Pattern is marked as Emma begins humming the same tune all the taken share, a frequency that allows movement between states of matter.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

In the perpetually flooded basement, she teaches him words that burn his tongue and symbols that make his nose bleed—preparing him to be a conduit for something ancient. Margaret meets the current Timothy, now 57, who reveals the horrifying truth: every fifty years, a seven-year-old Brennan boy is chosen to speak the words that weaken reality's barriers. His own grandson, another Timothy aged seven, is now receiving the same terrible lessons. The basement shows reflections of all the Timothys across time, all learning to become keys that unlock what should stay buried.

Check out our Halloween Pop-up Channel here.The third recording reveals the gruesome deaths of three night-shift nurses at Mercy General Hospital, found arranged on morgue tables with their eyes mysteriously missing—not removed, but as if they never existed. More disturbing still, the dead nurses continue working their shifts, caring for patients who invariably die within hours. Margaret's 3 AM investigation of the current hospital morgue confirms the impossible: the dead are breathing, speaking, and watching. Three modern nurses—descendants of the 1974 victims—have vanished, only to reappear working in the morgue, transformed into something between life and death. The hospital marks the third point of the Pattern, where the dying become the dead become the returning, and Margaret learns her role as the Blackwood witness: to document until drowning.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

When she disappears, leaving only a water-soaked outline on her bed, Margaret investigates the current Davidson house and uncovers a horrifying truth—the Davidson family home is built from the bodies of Davidsons taken over the centuries. Marcus Davidson, the current owner, reveals that his family is the first point of the Pattern, bound to pay a debt every fifty years with one of their own. As the walls weep impossible water and spell out their demands, Margaret realizes twenty-nine more families will be marked before October ends, and the Blackwoods are among them.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

The first recording, made by her vanished predecessor Silas Crane, documents an impossible morning when five children appeared in the locked library with clouded eyes, walking through solid doors and corrupting every book they touched. As Margaret investigates Silas's claims, she makes a horrifying discovery: the same thing happened this morning with a new generation of children. Whatever nightmare consumed Millbrook in October 1974 has returned exactly fifty years later, and Margaret has only thirty recordings to understand the Pattern before Halloween arrives. Pay close attention—every detail matters, and the children are just the beginning.Unlock an ad-free podcast experience with Caloroga Shark Media!

This concludes our Monster Mash of Monster TV Episodes. Was man the monster all along? Yes, yes he was. October will continue Thor's Long Halloween with a new month called "Village of the Damaged", beginning with Fire in the Sky (1993).

Welcome back to the show! Get ready for a thrilling Batman Day episode as we celebrate the World's Greatest Detective with a deep dive into Batman: The Long Halloween. Mike and Stephen are breaking down the new DC High Volume version of this legendary story. We'll cover it all, from the voice cast to the gripping mystery of a killer who strikes on holidays. We'll also be making a special correction in this episode regarding the creative team behind this iconic comic. While discussing the legacy of The Long Halloween, we mistakenly stated that writer Jeph Loeb had passed away. We want to correct that and honor the memory of the true legend we lost: the immensely talented artist Tim Sale, who passed away in 2022. Jeph Loeb is very much alive and continuing his work.

This October, "Ghost - Scary Stories" presents a special 31-night Halloween event. When librarian Margaret Blackwood discovers thirty mysterious vinyl records from 1974, she ignores the warning: "Play one per day. Never more. The dead grow stronger when rushed." Each recording reveals another horror that touched Millbrook fifty years ago—children walking through walls, nurses working after death, houses that breathe. But as Margaret plays the recordings, she realizes she's not just listening to the past. She's creating it. And something ancient is using her voice to speak itself into existence. A new episode every night in October, counting down to Halloween. Thirty recordings. Thirty horrors. One terrible truth.

Jace and Rocky chat about the DC Comics titles for the week of June 30, 2025. It's a fifth Tuesday of the month so we get tons of Annuals, a Special and even an anthology. The anthology collects a ton of Superman family stories that are quite diverse in tone and a couple of them have what may the next up and coming artists at DC.

The Nightwing Annual gives us the origin of Olivia Pearce and Justice League Dark Tomorrow stars a mysterious time traveler who is working to stop the Omega Energy from destabilizign time. Finally the Titans Annual is an absolute masterclass character piece starrint Donna Troy and a must-read for any DC fan.

Discussion highlighted Michael Turner's art style, emphasizing the influence of early 2000s teenage fashion depicted in character designs. Hosts noted that the first issue could have been condensed significantly, criticizing its pacing and structure. Superman's omitted kryptonite quarantine subplot from the movie adaptation raised concerns about character depth. Tim Daly and Kevin Conroy received praise for reprising their iconic roles, while mixed reviews were given to Ed Asner and Andre Brauer's performances. A debate on Wonder Woman's training methods questioned the conflict resolution techniques used within the storyline. Criticism arose over the implausibility of Batman defeating a Doomsday clone in the action sequences, situating him against a powerful foe. The significance of Superman's kryptonite ring was analyzed, noting its implications on comic book continuity. The final Darkseid battle was deemed as unnecessary padding, detracting from the story's overall quality. Overall assessment categorized the comic as "mid" quality, recommending it over the movie for improved pacing and dialogue.   Notes ️ Opening & Introduction (00:00 - 11:18) Podcast introduction and guest welcome from Night of the Batman podcast Discussion of second major Superman Batman story arc following their previous crossover episode on Public Enemies Case's initial criticism of the comic's decompressed storytelling, comparing it unfavorably to the earlier 'Many Happy Returns' Supergirl story that came out 1.5 years prior Analysis of Jeph Loeb's writing style and tendency to retell existing stories, with comparison to Long Halloween vs. Eye of the Beholder Art Style & Character Design Discussion (06:02 - 22:24) Michael Turner's artwork analysis, particularly his portrayal of Supergirl and the male gaze perspective in character design Debate over teenage fashion authenticity in early 2000s, with specific mention of Degrassi character Manny's influence on style choices Case's personal reflection on aging out of the target demographic at 22-23 years old when the comic was released Discussion of Batman's visual design and 'toyetic' appeal of his various gear throughout the story Story Structure & Pacing Analysis (15:32 - 33:23) Critique of first issue's extreme decompression - could have been condensed to 5 pages according to hosts Analysis of Superman's quarantine subplot from kryptonite exposure, which was omitted from the movie adaptation Discussion of Batman's characterization and his collection of various colored kryptonite Comparison of Supergirl's introduction sequence between comic and movie versions Character Development & Voice Acting (33:23 - 44:32) Praise for Tim Daly and Kevin Conroy reprising their animated series roles in the movie Mixed reactions to Ed Asner as Granny Goodness and criticism of Andre Brauer's rushed Darkseid performance Analysis of Krypto's characterization as more aggressive than traditional versions Discussion of Superman's uncharacteristically irrational behavior throughout the story ️ Plot Development & Action Sequences (44:32 - 01:06:47) Wonder Woman and Amazons' training approach debate, including the problematic conflict resolution method Analysis of the Doomsday army sequence and its implausibility - criticism of Batman defeating a Doomsday clone Discussion of Big Barda's introduction and her height representation differences between comic and movie Trinity argument analysis, particularly Superman's inappropriate Jason Todd/Donna Troy comment Apocalypse Arc & Final Battle (01:06:48 - 01:18:02) Female Furies fight sequence comparison between mediums Batman's confrontation with Darkseid using hellspore threat as leverage Analysis of Superman's kryptonite ring usage and its comic book continuity Critique of final Darkseid battle as unnecessary padding for story length Discussion of ending differences between comic (heroic sacrifice) vs. movie (extended fight) Final Analysis & Recommendations (01:18:02 - 01:24:29) Overall assessment: story is 'mid' quality, overly decompressed for the content Recommendation to read comic over watching movie due to better pacing and dialogue Acknowledgment that 4 issues would have been optimal length instead of 6 Recognition of story's influence on modern Supergirl characterization going forward
