Summary

2021 is here and The Horrorble People's Podcast is BACK from its December break! To kick off the new year, we're bringing you one of our BIGGEST episodes on possibly one of the scariest films of all time, with TWO great creatives behind it! That's right, we're diving deep into Stanley Kubrick's adaptation of Stephen King's THE SHINING from 1980. We take a look at the influence the Hotel Stanley had on the demon plagued author in the 70s, the rise of Stanley Kubrick through Hollywood, the BRUTAL behind the scenes stories of trying to even make this movie, and why it became so huge after initially being considered a disappointment. We also talk about Anthony's COVID recovery, Alix's cats make several appearances, and we mentioned Jon Voight twice for some reason. It gets a little funky! If you like what you hear, please consider giving us a 5 star rating - we don't want to have to use your Shining abilities to get it done, it's exhausting! Classic Horror 2 by Kevin MacLeod Licensed

Murder Homes iHeartPodcasts The real estate market has never been hotter. Houses sell as soon as they’re listed. Bidding wars lead to all cash deals far above the asking price. But there is one kind of property that often sits on the market for years, no matter how much of a bargain it seems to be. Potential buyers come and go, the price keeps going down, and still the house stands empty. In real estate jargon, it’s called a “stigmatized property” because the home comes with a history. An unfortunate one – a horrible death occurred here. But what few people know is exactly what happened.... or why. Each week, Murder Homes tells the story of a single property. Who lived there? What secrets did they keep, and what did they leave behind? Part history, part murder mystery, this podcast mixes expert interviews, witness accounts, and court records to pull back the curtain on the hidden stories each property has to tell. Would you be able to live somewhere that seems perfect, if it weren’t for the ghosts of its past?
