“I’ve been binging Test Pattern at work, listening to every single episode from the beginning up to the current episode. They are always thoughtful and invested in the topic, and the conversations are always worth listening to even when I don’t agree. They’ve inspired me to do a podcast of my own!”

“This podcast continues to keep me sane during the ongoing plague of the past 4 years! I have been using it as my daily diversion from the horror of our current very real reign of terror! Thanks so very much for your thoughtful and generous analysis of an important genre.”

“I will always remember going to the library and getting as many books as I can with the creepiest and most gruesome covers on them. Children’s horror novels always went nuts with their artwork to really entice bloodthirsty kids like myself to read them. Now granted these were children’s books...”Read full review »

“For the longest time, I was a closeted horror fan. No more. A friend of mine, with whom I recently connected on Facebook, started posting links to the show, and being a podcast junkie, I decided to check it out.
This podcast is long, but don’t let that scare you. It’s also detailed and well...”Read full review »
