About this episode

Today we are talking Sometimes They Come Back from 1991, the Stephen King adaptation that blends supernatural horror with unresolved trauma. We explore how the film uses a small-town ghost story and classic Stephen King bullying tropes to examine grief, guilt, and the lasting impact of the past, while discussing its place among the wave of early ’90s King adaptations. Join us for a look at the scares, themes, and legacy of this cult horror favorite. TikTok: YouTube: Apple Podcast: Spotify: Instagram: Twitter/X:
