Half-Minute Horrors!

Shivers #10: The Curse of the New Kid

Jose drops Eric like a bad shoe for a conversation with A.D. Aro (@bumps_in_the_night_books on Insta). Together they traverse the forest of irresponsibility that grew from the mind of M.D. Spenser by way of a particularly unsane entry in the Shivers series, The Curse of the New Kid! Is this just American Psycho for elementary students? Does vomitation really carry the comedic weight Jose thinks it does? And how many faculty members need to either fall from great heights or be fallen upon from great heights before we outlaw second stories in school buildings? Then Aro treats us to an overview of his exciting new horror series for the warped and twisted children in all of us!

Half-Minute Horrors!

If a picture is worth a thousand words and your thoughts cost a penny apiece, then today's episode might just save your life! No, we don't know what that means, either. What we do know is that, as Jose and Eric guide you through a cross-section of thirty-second terrors from this 2009 collection, you will be able to say with certainty that you heard them speak for a particular length of time.

Bruce Coville's Book of Monsters

After earning an extra long summer break by graduating early from the Class of Sass (and Horror), Eric and Jose return to reading, writing, and rill silly names with the first entry of the ultimate children's anthology series of the '90s: Bruce Coville's Book of Monsters! The stories--and the creatures within--rip, slap, rule, and rock.
