The Spooky Scholars PodcastAuthor: Ashe Woodward
The best horror analysis podcast for the BIG questions we ask of horror movies and literature: The symbolism of slime? A zombie zeitgeist? Your weapon choice to survive a slasher? Anyone can summarize and review a horror movie but there's SO much more to horror than the list of shrills and kills. Horror is the genre pushing boundaries and taking society to task with monsters and mayhem, slashing and sex/gender play. Horror is EXTRA, and you need a friend (or podcast host) to ask, "WTF did I just watch?" Let's slice open the underbelly of horror and get schooled in spooky!

Episode 97
Tuesday, 11 November, 2025
Steve Sxaks’s novel, Invasion of the Punk Rockers, Who Drink Blood! taps into and explores how counter-culture is a key part of horror history. His horror narratives about punk rock vampires, get to the heart of punk and goth culture and what it means to be part of a group and part of the system. As a former soldier, Steve has a unique take on what it means to be part of a group, a clique, and what it really means to wear a ‘uniform’.We talk influences like Troma Entertainment, horror comics, other nerdy ideas and more in this one, all getting to the main point that horror has been built on punk rock, counter-culture ideals and it’s gotta stay that way. *This episode may contain spoilers for:Hellboy: The Crooked Man (2024)The Long Walk (2025)💀Find Steve at letsgoguy.com and @stevesxaksGet your copy of Invasion of the Punk Rockers, Who Drink Blood!: An Ashwood Story💀Follow us on Instagram @spooky.scholars💀💀Join the ongoing conversation and LIVE salon each month at spookyscholars.com🖤Full show notes at patreon.com/spookyscholarsEnjoy the show?
