e81. Stephen King and Horror

It’s Halloween. And in classic podcast fashion that means it’s time to do a theme episode. Halloween is about many things, but one thing it’s about is horror. Horror movies. Horror books. And the master of horror, is Stephen King. Or at least that’s what everyone says… for some reason… But why? What makes Stephen King the master of horror? And is there more to him than that? Wayne and Mav are joined by returning guests Nicole Freim and John Hadlock to discuss the career of Stephen King, his popularity, his progression as an author, his place in the literary canon, and his influence on popular culture and society at large.
