A must-have for any fan of horror and fantasy movies-Night of the
Living Dead, A Nightmare on Elm Street, The Shining (Stephen King),
and so many more! If you love film that scares, and want to believe
that zombies, vampires, and other deadly and terrifying creatures
could be real, let Meg Hafdahl and Kelly Florence, the women behind
the Horror Rewind podcast called "the best horror film podcast out
there" by Film Daddy, take you to the world where horror and
science meet. How would a zombie really decompose in Night of the
Living Dead? Are there instances of shape shifting in nature like
in The Wolf Man? What is the science behind the night terrors that
inspired the creation of Freddy Krueger? Is there scientific data
supporting ghost detection like the tools used in Poltergeist? What
is the psychological drive that compels cannibals like Hannibal
Lecter? How does modern medicine and therapy differ from what would
have been offered to Norman Bates in 1960? How are subliminal
messages related to propaganda or brainwashing like in The Ring?
What would the scientific explanation be for witches possessing
people like in Carrie? Was The Blair Witch Project based on any
real or imagined creature that came before?" And so much more!
Gothic media moguls Meg Hafdahl and Kelly Florence revisit the
films from their childhood to discover the science behind the fear.
Join Kelly and Meg as they unravel the medical mysteries and
scientific marvels that inspired the creation of famous monsters
like Nosferatu, Norman Bates, Dracula, Frankenstein, and many more.
An approachable and frightfully fun examination of what goes bump
in the night, The Science of Monsters will thrill every horror fan.
