Ask Alice Part 2: First, Final, and Favourite Girls.

from That's So Morbid · host Ashe Woodward

In this episode we explore Alice of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland as part of the final girl ancesty. We take into account Lewis Carroll's questionable legacy and what that means for how Alice was presented, constructed and how we conceive of this legacy after all Alice has influenced today. We'll touch on how Alice's character and Carroll's themes reverberate through the horror genre, lighting the path for modern slasher and iconic franchises like The Matrix and Sabrina the Teenage Witch and Stranger Things.Connecting the dots to ancient myths with Inanna, and literary giants like Dante and Gulliver's Travels, we're going into the underworld of storytelling and the history of horror on this one. *This episode may contain spoilers for:Alice in Wonderland (1951) DisneyAlice in Wonderland (2010) Tim BurtonAlice Through the Looking Glass (2016)Alice in Terrorland (2023)The Matrix (1999)Stranger Things (2016-2025)The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina (2018-2020)💀💀Follow us on Instagram @spooky.scholars💀Join the ongoing conversation and LIVE salon each month at spookyscholars.com🖤Full show notes at patreon.com/spookyscholarsEnjoy the show?
