Pulled Under by Pure Temptation: Siren (2004) Indie Horror Book Review | S02E29

Hosts Samantha and Jeffy dive into John Everson’s 2004 novel Siren, a gritty beach horror about grief, compulsion, and a deadly siren luring men into the sea. They discuss the book’s erotic and violent elements, its dual timelines (including a rum‑running ship a century earlier), and how mythology informs the creature. The episode also wanders through author tidbits-pinball obsession and pet cockatoos-podcast events, related book and film recommendations, and plenty of seaside anecdotes and dark humor.
