Ep. 78: Mummy Unwrapping Parties - Halloween 2023

Happy Halloween everyone! We celebrate our podcast's 2nd anniversary with this special Halloween episode of Scary Savannah! We talk about this year's Halloween candy madness, and then delve into the the depths of mummies - and why they were thought to be the cure for what ails you, as well as a fantastic paint medium. On What We're Watching, we review the 1932 Horror/Fantasy movie "The Mummy." On Layla and Coffee talk, we talk about Wag-O-Ween 2023.
