MadLibs: The Craft (1996) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We've got a short and belated episode for you this week, gentle souls. We've had a crazy couple of weeks in our personal lives, but we still managed to sit down to play a game of MadLibs with the plot of The Craft! Along the way we discuss screaming Ouija boards, bad wigs, and why we're still scared to play Bloody Mary as grown ass adults. As always, the brave among you can find the Decoder Guide over on our Instagram. And remember, you're all final girl material in our books. https://www.huffpo

Read excerpt
Velcome back, gentle souls! Ve promise ve von't suck your blood! That's right, we're talking vampires this week as we break down Goodnight Kiss, by R.L. Stine.

MadLibs: Jason Lives - Friday The 13th Part VI (1986) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We're playing MadLibs again! And because it's summer, we're talking about the most iconic summer camp horror franchise, Friday The 13th . Rather than starting at the beginning with 1980's titular film, Bethany decided to watch the 6th film in the series: 1986's Jason Lives . That's right, we're diving into the middles period of slashers.

Time Machine To November 1987: Stranger Things 5 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It's the end of an era, gentle souls! Join us to discuss the final season of Stranger Things. We talk about the value of communal cinematic experiences, the difficulties of world-building through seasons of television with varying tones, and why Nancy Wheeler is one of our favourite fictional characters ever. As with all art, your mileage may vary. Ours certainly did. But ultimately, we found meaningful and cathartic moments that will stick with us. Follow us on Instagram @scarysouppod Our email
