Back in October I went to Sitges Festival in Spain for the first time. Sitges is one of the largest horror festivals in the world and I got to watch a slew of fantastic films and meet some excellent people from the film horror world. Overall, it was an incredibly positive experience and I hope that comes through here. Enjoy this somewhat disjointed episode!


Thank you to everyone who chatted with me at the fest! If you want to follow my guests, you can find their info is in the show notes!
