Send us a text"You're frozen""No, I was just done talking."Welcome to another unhinged 30 minutes with us. OKKKKKKAYYY, Ashley was wrong (per usual), Emily was right - A locked room mystery is a subgenre of crime fiction in which a crime, often a murder, is committed in a location that is seemingly impossible to access. The puzzle lies in figuring out how the crime was committed, despite the room being sealed from the inside with no apparent way in or out. Unlike typical whodunits, these stories heavily feature the "howdunit" aspect, requiring a logical and plausible explanation that doesn't rely on supernatural or impossible.Yes, the spooky kid in a book is a very common trope, often referred to as the "creepy child". This trope plays on the contrast between a child's supposed innocence and their unsettling, often malevolent, behavior, which is considered terrifying because it goes against our expectations of what is innocent and vulnerable.For Next Week Read The Missing Half by Ashley Flowers https://ruthware.com/books/the-turn-of-the-key/Support the showSubscribe on our patreon for weekly content, early access to episodes, one true crime episode per month and behind the scenes content at https://www.patreon.com/thecreepybookclubFollow us on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/thecreepybookclub and https://www.instagram.com/bookswithyourbesties/Follow us on TikTok at https://www.tiktok.com/@thecreepybookclubMusic is Ur Karma (Instrumental Version) by Craig Reever.The opinions expressed in this podcast are those of Emily and Ashley of The Creepy Book Club alone.
