Still having a few issues with Zencastr, so this is another Skype special. Audio quality doesn't dictate guest quality, however, and talking to Sean Hogan was a blast. We discuss King's old-school ghost story, Bag of Bones, and how the gothic and the modern turn into an underrated King tour-de-force. I was a huge fan of Sean's book England's Screaming, which we discuss at length, and we get some tasty indicators of where the sequel, Twilight's Last Screaming is going.

Sean Hogan is a UK writer and filmmaker. He has written award-nominated books of cinema metafiction Twilight's Last Screaming, The Fatal Shore, England’s Screaming and Three Mothers, One Father, and his feature credits include the films Future Shock! The Story of 2000AD, The Borderlands, and The Devil’s Business. Check out his blog for Arrow films here and his blog here.

Thanks to everyone at Black Shuck Books for setting this up, and thanks to SLP for the tech production.
