Disgraced wastrel and former history Professor R.B. Ol' Matty discovers and begrudgingly introduces the first ever Delicious Word Sandwich frozen tape! Here, Ol' Matty had the absolute honour of discussing Shirley Jackson's "The Haunting of Hill House" and Jennifer Gordon's debut novel "Beautiful, Frightening and Silent" with none other than the author herself, Jennifer Gordon. Sharing their writing dreams, triumphs, trials and literary tattoo ideas, Ol' Matty and Jennifer Gordon delve into wonderful psychological journeys and grapple soul-curdling horror to masterfully conjure not one, but two Delicious Word Sandwiches of the most unique, experimental, delectable and appropriately terrifying nature. Dr Jekyll wishes he could do horror and madcap concoctions this good.Jennifer Gordon's Beautiful, Frightening and Silent is available on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited.EPISODE NOTES:As we know, your ol' pal Ol' Matty is lost in time. According to some misprinted history textbooks, he has spent/is spending much time in Paris trying to defeat Jim Pawsby, the immortal demon bear that has declared itself the dark monarch of the city of lights. While he is doing that, the disgraced wastrel and former history Professor R.B. Ol'Matty reluctantly introduces a prized relic of Delicious Word Sandwich history: the frozen tapes. Why Ol' Matty recorded dynamite interviews onto tape, then put those tapes into the freezer, is anyone's guess. Then again, no one should be surprised.The tape, however, is surprising. Ol' Matty blows nothing up, doesn't destroy any prized monuments or summon any kind of scourge of the world. Instead, what follows is a fun and in-depth chat with author Jennifer Gordon about her favourite works by Shirley Jackson, what sandwiches they would make, how to properly support and gently stalk your favourite author, and her own debut novel, "Beautiful, Frightening and Silent", the tale of an alcoholic man tortured by survivor's guilt who journeys to a haunted island for the chance to see the ghost of his four-year old son, only to find a crumbling old boarding house and himself becoming involved with a beautiful and manipulative ghost who has spent 60 years tormenting the now elderly man who was her lover, and ultimately her murderer.Beautiful, Frightening, and Silent is a poetic fever dream of grief, love, and the terrifying ways that obsession can change who we are.Love stories?

2017 and 2018: it was the years when Jordan Peele took us to the Sunken Place, when the Xenmorph returned to the big screen, when we were stuck in a killer time loop, and when Michael Myers and Laurie Strode got their long-awaited rematch. As the decade hurtled toward its conclusion, viewers were introduced to bold visionaries behind the camera and witnessed new sequels in some of the most influential franchises in horror history. There was no shortage of must-see scares on the big and small screens, giving us plenty to talk about on this episode of Corpse Club! Continuing our retrospective series on the 2010s with a special episode that spans two years of scares, Scott Drebit, Tamika Jones, Bryan Christopher, and Derek Anderson take a look back at some of the most memorable horror releases of 2017 and 2018 that made an impressionable splash in the past that continues to ripple into the present. From Pennywise's reign of terror in IT and the thought-provoking horrors of Get Out to the return of Michael Myers and Laurie Strode in Halloween, the Corpse Club co-hosts discuss a wide range of horror movies released theatrically in 2017 and 2018, and they also reflect on notable video games and TV series from that two-year span, including the immersive scares of Resident Evil 7 and Mike Flanagan's heart-wrenching adaptation of Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House. So join us on another installment of our journey through a decade filled with horror remakes, groundbreaking original films, binge-worthy series, and visceral video games. The 2010s may be getting ready for the grave, but thanks to the decade's immeasurable influence on the world of horror, there's no way it will rest in peace!

We tarry cheerfully in the obscure and creepy corridors of Shirley Jackson's late novels, sites of psychic ambiguity and authorial (and architectural!) precision. Then, at the 46 minute mark, we assess the credibility of various trends of the young NBA season, as well as use the phrase "round into form" countless times. Next up, the postmodern 60s, and Robert Coover's orthographically complex (at least in title) novel The Universal Baseball Association, Inc., J. Henry Waugh, Prop. Join us!

Here at long last is the second half of our recent podstravaganza, featuring Charles Chace and all of our misguided pre-season predictions. Feast your ears on all the things we were wrong about! Thanks to Charles for coming in (and bringing his fancy microphone and shock mount to boot.) We hope to have him back in later on in the season when we can further revel in our collective wrongness. Next up on the book side: the 1950s, and Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House.

Recorded as part of a three-hour podstravaganza earlier this week, here's our discussion of Malcolm Lowry's daunting, forbidding, and rewarding 1947 novel. The rest of the podcast, in which we preview the newborn NBA season with our friend Charles Chace, is still being edited and will be released soon. Going forward on the books side, we have finally made it past the shoals of Modernism! Next up is the 1950s, and Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House.

It's the Season of Spooks and Scares and we're starting with Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House, with the help of Moxie, host of Your Brain on Facts, who’s just FULL of facts...mostly about how best to see Liam Neeson's ween.

Random House Copy Chief Benjamin Dreyer stops into the Damn Library to talk to Christopher and Drew about his new utterly correct style guide, Dreyer's English, as well as working as a copy chief, the reading life of someone dedicated to books as he is, and which editorial meetings leave him floating. Also, we discuss what his next book will be! Then we get into Shirley Jackson and The Haunting of Hill House and if anyone got scared while reading it, plus, what it's like to edit an author who isn't there to correct you.

This week, McKenna and Zane tackle the classic movie The Haunting, adapted from Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House. This is also the first episode they ever recorded way back when, so get ready. Boy oh boy. Here we go.

There have been a Hill of a lot of adaptations of Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House. In this episode, Nathaniel boggles Max's mind by revealing how much Shirley Jackson trumps Stephen King's writing as well as by going over the actual plot of the book and two films versus the Netflix series, which is an adaptation in only the loosest sense but is awesome nonetheless. They also find a strangely specific repetitive formula in showrunner Mike Flanagan's body of work. Intro/Outro music: Apex by Simon Mathewson

Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House has been hailed as "the greatest haunted-house story ever written." The house itself is vile. It's dark and impossible to navigate. It's dripping with blood. So why are four people trying to spend their summer there?!? This week's paranormal activity is brought to you in part by the fine website wizards at Squarespace.
