S2 Room 8 - Fears, Frights, & Phobias

The Backrooms Podcast

Show Notes

In this very very late edition of The Backrooms, we get a little spooky. All forms of media use our fears & anxieties, in one way or another, to give us a sense of realism or Engagement in a story or setting. The boys decided it was time to take a dive into the depths of the dreadful & dreary world of horror, and the use of horror, in telling a story and setting a scene.
