After last minute guest changes, we dive into the shocking news of Charlie Kirk’s assassination before rewinding to a classic conversation with Goosebumps illustrator Tim Jacobus, exploring horror, nostalgia, and the strange ways dark stories shape our world.
Things didn’t go quite as planned this week on Mostly Horror, but sometimes that makes for the most interesting conversations. With our guest lineup shifting last minute, we start by unpacking the shocking news of Charlie Kirk’s assassination, reflecting on his controversial career, the polarizing reactions online, and the bigger cultural questions moments like this stir up. From there, we rewind to one of our earliest interviews with Goosebumps illustrator Tim Jacobus, a creative influence who shaped our love of horror from the start. It’s an unusual mix of current events and horror nostalgia, but it all comes together as a reminder of why we explore the dark, the strange, and the unforgettable in every episode.
