Matt Shea and Eric Poch

Just in time for spooky season, the boys welcome author, retired scare actor, and oft-mentioned listener from London, Andy "Cookie" Rawlings! The three gents get to the bottom of Bobby Pickett's eternal hit "The Monster Mash." Specifically: what is it? The song? A song within the song? Or something...darker? Plus, the three share tales from their time working at haunted attractions and Andy brings in a question from the ScareTrack Podcast.

Check out Andy's book, Through the Dead Eye: A Eulogy to the Art of Scare Acting!

See Andy in the documentary UK Haunters, covering the UK haunt scene!
