Our Halloween run continues as our mate Gemma joins us to revisit her horrifying history with the Point Horror series, courtesy of Caroline B. Cooney’s Freeze Tag. We’re heading back to a world of ominous paperback covers, American teenage envy and playground games with potentially fatal consequences.
Along the way, we discuss childhood cruelty, teenage obsession, sympathy for the outsider, questionable behaviour from the beautiful people, and the discovery that supernatural powers are unlikely to improve your love life.
Because no excursion into adolescent horror would be complete without adolescent drinking choices, our accompanying ghoulish booze pays tribute to the crap we drank as teenagers. Come for the paperback nostalgia. Stay for the poor decisions.
