If you’ve ever seen Grady Hendrix live, you know he offers more of a multimedia educational performance experience than a boring old book reading. This podcast is like being with Grady in person—plus sound effects! I have loved all of his books and this pod is such interesting insight into how he researches as well as being just plain entertaining. Love it.

Have you been feeling the stress of wasting your precious isolation time staring out windows and wandering from room to room wondering why every dish in the house is dirty AGAIN TODAY, when you PROMISED yourself you would take this time to acquire a skill or read a book, but a strange lassitude has made it impossible to push your eyes to take in word after word on a printed page, and baking bread is a bridge too far? Take heart! Grady Hendrix’s new podcast will stuff highly spiced vampire lore into your eager ears like a ghastly goulash into a hungry Hungarian. Join Grady on a whirlwind trip around the world to uncover More Than Ten Loathesome Undead Facts You’re Pretty Sure You’ll Never Use At Thanksgiving Dinner. (Unless you’re in my family.) If you’ve been missing the charming snark of Grady’s early work (Satan Loves You, Tales of the White Street Society) or the fast-paced funhouse descent into smothering evil that can be enjoyed with only a spoonful of the bitter medicine of hard life lessons (Horrorstör), you’ll be delighted and fascinated by this podcast. Anyone who has attended any of Grady’s live events knows he’s a hilarious wag, so pour yourself a copita of AB-, or of that wine you claim you never drink, and get ready to have your mind improved without any need for drudgery, ‘cause Grady’s gonna larn ya ‘bout them vampires. And you’re gonna like it.

Informative, well researched, fascinating and at times freaking hilarious. I love Grady Hendrix’s sense of humor and it’s on display here in all its glory, but he also shows his serious and heartfelt side as well. This was a blast and wish there were more!

Not only does Grady provide boatloads of illuminating information, but he does so while tossing in some hilarious quips.
No stench of pretentiousness here folks! It’s history and subject analysis without the snobbery, which is the literal only way I like it.
Great job Grady!
