Werewolves, Witches and Ghosts (Oh My!): New Halloween Podcast Episode
As a Gothic scholar and long-time lover of all things eerie, spooky, and supernatural, I was honoured to chat recently about some of my favourite scary texts and traditions for a new Halloween-themed episode of From the Lighthouse, the podcast run by the English Department at Macquarie University in Sydney. The timing was perfect. A chill has blown over the North of England lately, and as the days grow shorter and the nights longer, it is easy to turn one’s thoughts to what may lurk in the shadows. Pumpkins have sprouted on doorsteps, cobwebs are draped in foggy shop windows, and the last of the golden leaves cling to the spindly fingertips of trees in the woodland graveyard across the road.
Some iconic spooky film characters: The Wicked Witch, Dracula and the Wolf Man
Unsurprisingly, England embraces the traditions of All Hallow’s Eve in a way that I am unused to (trying to feel spooky in Australia’s warm, bright, sweetly-scented Springtime is not quite the same!). Having worked out to record the episode from this side of the world with our last episode about Buffy the Vampire Slayer , I was all set for our spooky session. As the clock eked closer to midnight, the wires buzzed, a skype connection was forged, and suddenly I was spirited into the disembodied cybersphere to join podcast host Dr Stephanie Russo and Dr Jimmy Van.
Stills from The Wolfman (2010)
This episode was great fun to record (despite the curse of the skype delay), and the subjects wide and varying, ranging from musings on why we enjoy scary texts, the difference between horror and terror, and whether or not vampires are out and mermaids are the next big thing. We chat about Victorian ghost stories, the spooky architecture of the haunted house, where (not) to listen to horror podcasts, and our scariest literature and film experiences.
Stills from MTV’s Teen Wolf (2011-2017)
I also talk about wolves and werewolves, including my favourite examples in film and TV (from early Wolf Man to recent Teen Wolf), and my childhood memories of the beginnings of this wolfish fascination (I wish I had remembered to mention one of my favourites of all time, and quite possibly one of my earliest encounters: the wolf Gmork from The Never-Ending Story. I was only very small, but according to my parents, when the other children shut their eyes in fear, mine only opened wider in excitement and curiosity).

Reviews for "Styling Inspiration: Effortlessly Chic Looks with the Farm Rio Amulet Dress"
1. Sarah - 1 star - I was very disappointed with this Farm Rio amulet dress. The quality of the fabric was very poor and it felt cheap. The fit was also very off, with the waistline hitting in an awkward place and the length being too long. I expected much better for the price. I returned it immediately.
2. Emily - 2 stars - I had high hopes for this Farm Rio amulet dress, but unfortunately, it did not live up to my expectations. The print looked beautiful online, but in person, it was not as vibrant and the colors seemed dull. The fit was also not flattering on me, as it accentuated all the wrong areas. I ended up returning it and would not recommend it.
3. Jessica - 2 stars - The Farm Rio amulet dress looked so cute on the model, but when I tried it on, it just didn't work for me. The length was too short, making it feel inappropriate for certain occasions, and the sizing was off. It felt tight in some areas and loose in others. The quality of the fabric was also lacking, as it was thin and easily wrinkled. Overall, I was disappointed with this dress.
4. Megan - 3 stars - While there were some things I liked about the Farm Rio amulet dress, there were also some aspects that fell short for me. The print was beautiful and vibrant, and the style was unique. However, the fabric felt a bit scratchy and uncomfortable on the skin, and the fit was not as flattering as I had hoped. It also wrinkled easily, which made it difficult to maintain its appearance throughout the day. It's an okay dress, but definitely not worth the price in my opinion.
5. Rachel - 2 stars - I had high hopes for the Farm Rio amulet dress, but unfortunately, it did not suit my body type at all. The top part of the dress was too tight, while the bottom part was too loose, creating an unflattering silhouette. The fabric was also quite thin, which was not ideal. I had to return it and would not recommend it to others.
