Welcome to more spooky season goodness.  This year, at the beginning of October in fact, marks the 75th anniversary of Peanuts.  It's the 59th anniversary of the animated special It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, but the 66th anniversary of the first mention of the Great Pumpkin from 1959! So to celebrate all those, and the fact that James just read this book, we're discussing the book "It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown, the Making of a Television Classic" by Lee Mendelson (with remembrances by Bill Melendez).   We won't give it all away.  You should go buy the book.  But we do talk about a few neat things, regarding the making of the show, between this and other found interviews. So pour yourself a pint of pumpkin juice and enjoy with sincerity! Next week's midweek spooky season episode is on the spooky haunts of Mulligan's (Dublin) Pub.   Get in touch with us at Podbean: https://www.podbean.com/media/share/pb-4pksr-a17e1a Or on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/twinterrorsmacabremanormeadmetalmayhe/ Or on twitter: @Terrors_Manor On Instagram: @macabremanormeadmetalmayhem You can also find our podcast on iTunes, Spotify, Amazon, and I Heart Radio; pretty much wherever fine (and our) podcasts are aired.

Welcome back to the Manor and welcome back to more spooky fun!  We're starting out October with an excellent creepy story on the final days of Percy Bysshe Shelley and his encounters with his own spooky doppelganger.  Did it herald his death?  Cause it?  A symptom of madness?  Oooooh... spooky!

Welcome back to the Manor and welcome to Hobbit Day 2025!  Otherwise known as our anniversary, although I suppose this is technically coming out just a few days before that.

Welcome back to the Macabre Manor!  And welcome to spooky season!  This year, we're starting early, but since most of us start celebrating Halloween in September (or earlier) anyway, why not?!  Plus, this will either make it easier on us or you'll get even more spooky episodes this season! This episode is on the 40th anniversary of The Black Cauldron.  A very misunderstood spooky animated film that we dig, even if we understand the issues with it.  So pour yourself a beer, be aware of the Horned king, and enjoy! Next week's episode is on the Auburn (Indiana) haunted brewery... unless we end up doing a mid-week episode.

Welcome back to the Manor!  A few episodes ago, James mentioned that while Guinness would be his beer of choice, he wasn't sure if he'd be able to pick it out in a blind taste test.  So he picked up four different Irish stouts, all in nitro cans, and has done a blind taste test!  Will he pick which is Guinness?  Listen in! Also, he had two more nitro cans of Guinness to see which pours better, the standard tilt or the "shove it straight down and let it flow" method that has been making the rounds on social media.  Which is better?  Listen in! We also have video of this one!  We have no idea if we'll set it up to be shared, but at least there's proof of no hoodwinkery! Pour yourself a pint and enjoy! EDIT:  we were told by an excellent listener that, although we do discuss Guinness often, there was a Guinness specific episode from James' trip to Ireland, so we've updated this to say Guinness episode 2!  Thanks! Next week's episode is about the 40th anniversary of Disney's "The Black Cauldron".
