Sleepwalking parents, Japanese folklore, and viral marketing campaigns… Oh lawd, it's about to get pretty dark!

Join ‘90s kids Kayln and Christian (and two of their podcastin’ heroes) as they turn up the horror dial with a millennial classic that shaped the genre as we now know it.

Joined by Em and Christine from And That's Why We Drink, Em brings the FASCINATING history of chain letters, while Christine shares childhood nightmares that prevent her from watching horror movies to this day, and your Ghost Hosts guide you through the film’s production history and cyclical Japanese ghost stories that inspired it.

Though it wasn’t made for children, many of us caught The Ring early in life…. and if you want to heal that “TV trauma,” listen and forward this episode to 10 friends!
