195: Author Eric Larocca - At Dark I Become Loathsome

  • Summary

  • Hey Horror Fans!!!

    This week on Mostly Horror, Steve and Sean dig into some intriguing horror headlines! They discuss rumors of Robert Eggers possibly directing a Labyrinth sequel with the Jim Henson Company, Bret Easton Ellis casting doubt on the legitimacy of Austin Butler playing Patrick Bateman in a new American Psycho project, and some surprising CGI updates to Alien: Romulus for its physical release.

    Then, they sit down with the incredible Eric LaRocca to discuss his chilling new novella At Dark I Become Loathsome. Eric opens up about the catharsis of horror, how long-held fears like cancer and mortality evolve into recurring themes in his work, and why he’s fascinated by the monstrous things humans do to one another. They also dive into his influences, from Clive Barker to Universal Monsters, and the delicate balance between beauty and depravity in his storytelling.

    Finally, Eric takes on the Spook’em Scare’em Starter Kit with some delightfully twisted prompts inspired by giallo, monsters, and more!

    This episode is incredibly insightful, unsettling, and a whole lot of fun so...

    COME HANG OUT!!!
