In Episode 8 of The Horror and Her I am joined by journalist, essayist and horror critic, the fantastic Kat Hughes. We talk about what it means when horror is intrinsic — how early encounters shape our tastes, and why some of us don’t “find” horror at all, but are introduced to it early, safely, and with joy through family. What Should Everybody Be Watching? Kat recommends Bliss (dir. Joe Begos) and Hellbender (dir. The Adams Family), and also makes a passionate case for genre festivals as a vital way to discover bold, independent horror. We talk about the importance of seeking out festivals and curated genre spaces to find indie films that might otherwise slip under the radar Guest Bio + Links - Kat Hughes https://linktr.ee/kathughes?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=1ea551bc-07df-4734-8195-78f687e086c2 The Horror and Her is part of the Film Stories Podcast Network.

Hosted by Emma Arneil, The Horror and Her is a love letter to the genre that shaped us—and to the women who found power, comfort, and identity in its shadows. Each episode invites a guest to share her “horrorigin story”: the film that first frightened her, thrilled her, and made her feel seen. In this opening primer episode, Emma reflects on turning forty and deciding to stop suppressing her lifelong love of horror. What follows is a celebration of the spooky, the strange, and the stories that stay with us—told through women’s eyes and hearts.
