Welcome to office hours on the Fangoria Podcast Network.

My name is Dr. Rebecca McKendry, and this is a bonus episode for my podcast Nightmare University.

On these bonus episodes, I'll be exploring behind-the-scenes tales and genre-fueled adventures from my many years at Fangoria as the director of marketing.

Before we get into the episode, though, let's have a word from our sponsors.

Tonight's episode is brought to you by Fangoria Magazine.

Fangoria is now a deluxe 100-page quarterly edition.

Each issue includes set visits, deep dives, new discoveries, and minimal ads, all printed on collectible

with delight, like Barbara Crampton and S. Craig Zaller. And the best part,

it's print only. Subscribe now at Fangoria.com.
