Podcasts about summerween

Summerween is here! In this special episode of The Halloween Podcast, we're looking at the history of Summerween, the growing love for Halloween in the summer, and how a fictional holiday from Gravity Falls became part of real pop culture. We talk about where the idea came from, why fans connected with it, and how the desire for Halloween outside of October has turned into real events, merchandise, social media trends, and summer celebrations across the country. We'll also look at the bigger picture of Halloween in the summer, from horror movies, campfire stories, haunted attractions, and spooky summer nostalgia to the way fans now use Summerween as an excuse to bring pumpkins, costumes, candy, and creepy fun into the hottest months of the year.

Check out Cam's latest novel / audio drama here! Summerween continues with an in-depth discussion of the very first Paranormal Activity. How did this landmark horror movie advance so many subgenres at the same time, from found footage to haunted house and horror romance? How does it weaponize almost every single seemingly innocent element of the setting and performances into becoming part of its creature design? And HOW does a movie that we've been watching and rewatching for almost twenty years still keep us up at night? Comparisons include: The Blair Witch Project, Midsommar, Tolkien's fractal introduction of Shelob, The White Stripes song Ball and Biscuit, and maybe ten seconds of Doctor Faustus.

Join me on todays episode for a discussion with of my all time favourite YouTubers/Podcasters Sinead Hanna to talk all about the genre of horror. Sinead talks all about the origins of her love for the macabre, the psychology of horror and why and when it is common for many of us to seek comfort in it. We talk about early horror interests - think Point Horror books, Ghost Watch and Hammer House of Horror. Sinead also shares some of her favourite horror reads and movies overall but also for Summerween. I have picked up a ton of inspiration on books and movies to watch through Sineads work, she really knows her onions for this genre! https://www.youtube.com/@SineadHannaCraic instagram.com/sineadhannacraic You can also find Sinead over on The Poisoners Cabinet podcast . https://www.thepoisonerscabinet.com/ As mentioned here is a link to The Woman in Black if you fancy watching it - The film starts at around 7 minutes in - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tf1LSoMoeMc Our book review today is my zine The Book of Tides - The Book of Tides is a seasonal grimoire that explores the Summer Solstice through a look at the element of water.

We also look at Waters of the Witch including the folklore and magickal uses of black water, brackish water, dew, fog, hail, fountain/well water, war water, ice, rain water, river/lake, sea, marsh and waterfall water. Also how it was used by witches, healers and cunning folk traditionally. Learn how to make Witch's Holy Water, explore moon water and guidance on the magickal properties and uses of water from the full, waxing, waning, dark and new moon phases. We also look at mermaids, selkies and witchcraft connected to them. We look at Midsummers Eve and its ancient connection to dream and intuitive magick, the witchs grimoire and some kitchen witchery.

Journey through the tarot temple where the card that most wishes to work with you reveals itself. Through a guided meditation you will meet the energy, message or wisdom that is waiting for you within the cards.  In our final week we explore tarot as a tool for self-reflection and transformation.

Check out Cam's latest novel / audio drama here! We're kicking off our fifth annual Summerween celebration by taking a much closer look at one of Maggie's all time favorites: The Blair Witch Project. In this episode, we're starting with our impressions after seeing the film in theaters for a second time, analyzing the paradoxical urgency and breadth of the film's 81 minute runtime, and unpacking the mysteries of its suggestive, restrained creature design. We're also investigating some provocative comparisons with Backrooms, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and Dante's Inferno that help to elucidate the lethal ambiguity of the film's final shot. In our final two segments, we're exploring the unique genre fusion of Blair Witch and reflecting on the subtle creative choices that provoked the strongest emotional reaction from us.

This week on the Modern Retail Podcast, co-hosts Gabi Barkho and Melissa Daniels get into the news of how On running shoes led the pack of footwear earnings with a 32% year-over-year sales increase.

They get into why Slice, a relaunch that dovetails with a better-for-you soda boom, found a fit in Sprouts, how Sprouts' nationwide rollout model gives small brands a fast-track to scaling and why store programs like “New for You” and “Fresh Finds” drive discovery and repeat sales

Margo and Abby are back with another installment of Creative Current Events, a special segment of Windowsill Chats where creativity, culture, and community collide.
