I loved this episode. I am a fan of horror, thriller and ghost stories, and I am intrigued by the relationship between sleep and nightmares. In this episode, Brian and I discuss his work, including his book Sleep Paralysis: Historical, Psychological, and Medical Perspectives https://www.amazon.com.au/Sleep-Paralysis-Historical-Psychological-Perspectives/dp/0199313806 and Monsters on the Couch: The Real Psychological Disorders Behind Your Favorite Horror Movies https://www.amazon.com.au/Monsters-Couch-Psychological-Disorders-Favorite/dp/1641607912/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1703113003&sr=1-2-catcorr
Brian also conducts research, and many of his papers can be found on Pub Med: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/
