Episode 65: The Girl Next Door by Jack Ketchum & Special Guest Stephen Graham Jones!

from Literary Disco · host Literary Disco

What’s really scary? Zombies, ghosts, vampires– or bizarre novels about torture based on true events? For this year’s Halloween episode, we welcome our expert in horror, Stephen Graham Jones. We begin with some fun stuff, like why it took zombies so long to catch on, and what the next zeitgesity beast might be. Then we asked Stephen to select a horror book for us to read. He picked a doozy. Hitherto unknown to all three of your Disco hosts, The Girl Next Door is without a doubt the most disturbing, controversial novel we’ve read. It’s well written, beautifully structured, and yet, will make you wish you never started it. Join us, and please share your thoughts on our Facebook Page. Learn more about your ad choices.
