AMERICAN SCARY: A HISTORY OF HORROR FROM SALEM TO STEPHEN KING AND BEYOND

In this very enjoyable intervoiew with author Jeremy Dauber we discuss his new blockbuster  book American Scary , which is a sweeping and entertaining narrative that details the rise and enduring grip of horror on American culture from the taught, terrifying stories of Edgar Allan Poe to the sharply chilling folms of Jordan Peele. Along the way we talk about Washington Irving, Arthur Machem. Alfred Hitchcock, the movie 'The Blob', Uncle Tom's Cabin, Frankenstein, and much more, but we probably only cover 1% of the contents of this terrific book, which is really a history of horror genre books and movies.
