Episode 34: Poltergeist (1982)

What this episode covers

Continuing on with our weekly episodes for the month of October, we’re watching the 1982 classic: Poltergeist! We can’t really call it Spooky Season without a good, old-fashioned ghost kidnapping, right? Directed by the iconic Tobe Hooper, with Steven Spielberg as one of the writers alongside the talented Michael Grais and Mark Victor, you already know this one has lasted through horror history for good reason. Tune in to join us for a chat about the filmmakers, the alleged haunting that served as inspiration for the film, the alleged curse surrounding the whole Poltergeist franchise, and more!
