Halloween Hollow

from Breath In, Write Out Hosted by PFAU: Academic Writing

This week’s episode is about my favorite celebration of all-time - HALLOWEEN!! Every year I look forward to Halloween, not because I am a fan of being scared or engaging in debauchery, but because of the imagination and creativity involved. I love seeing different costumes, decorating my home, and finding a way to scare my students. Halloween for me is inspirational, so today we are going to talk about the art of writing horror and creepy stories. Today’s guest is my work-study student and our podcast editor and blog post composting, Jingyi (Jane) Miao. Jane isn’t really an official expert, but she has watched hundreds, maybe thousands of horror movies and spooky shows. She knows the genre so well that she even dreams of entire movie plots and scenes in her sleep. I should also mention that Jane is a Bachelor of Arts student in Economic and International Relations at the University of Toronto, and a very talented writer in both English and Chinese...but mostly, she is my go-to person for scary stuff.
