Dolls

Join hosts Ed Voccola (Rick and Morty, Bless The Harts) and Chris Cullari (Blumhouse, The Aviary) for a wild trip through the world of what scares them.

This week, the boys are joined by Ally Malinenko, author of the upcoming middle grade horror book Broken Dolls, to talk about the scariest toy ever created: Dolls! From the uncanny valley, to Victorian doll funerals and the Reborn doll craze, they’ll sift through the toy box to discover what makes dolls so scary.
