Episode 20 of Our First Fears brings to you horror-author and all-around super-star, Clay McLeod Chapman, as we chat about how he discovered Jason Vorhees as a kid.
YES, we’re finally tackling the 1980 slasher classic, Friday the 13th!
Together, Clay and I wonder if Camp Crystal Lake is a kind of metaphor for America. I get to posit my theory that there are TWO killers in the film, while Clay shoots that idea right back down . . . LOL.
We also talk about Clay’s freaky-as-hell new novel, Wake Up and Open Your Eyes, as well as what makes a horror story “distinctly American.” It’s a fun talk. Subscribe, download, and hit play already, gee-whiz...
