The Horror Virgin

by The Horror Virgin

What’s your favorite scary movie? Are you a fanatic or a fraidy-cat? Either way, we’ve got you covered. Each week, horror fan Paige will take Horror Virgin Todd through the encyclopedia of horror one movie at a time. We’ll discuss classics as well as fan favorites, with the occasional new release thrown in for good measure. Mikey will make inappropriate jokes and Todd will scream like a little girl at every jump scare. It’s hilarious. Prepare yourself for spoilers, tangents, and lots of irreverent fun.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This pod podcast is a true gem in the world of podcasts. I am have been listening to horror virgin and romancing the pod for years. I recommend you to my horror fan/ non horror fan friends alike. Paige and Todd make getting ready and the drive to work more fun. Paige’s witty intellect and Todd’s heartfelt perspective make Horror Virgin feel like home. Thank you for the laughter and horror discussion.

RiteSpring1913 · Apr 2026

…after discovering from a “Last Shift” search. Great chemistry, good humor and some rabbit trails that end up paying off. On top of my positive first impressions, I heard them endorse Suboxone and other MAR meds to get off heroin. As someone with 9+ sober/clean years, I owe my life in part to those medications. I’m also a baby-face like Michael and can’t grow a beard, even at age 48. Good stuff all around, count me in and “on the bus” going forward. Update: where’s the third dude? Hopefully it’s temporary because he is funny and adds a lot. Another Update: The show is still very good, but losing the extra 3rd dude definitely takes some zip off their fastball…

Deadhead-Dan10 · Feb 2026

I just discovered your podcast on a friend’s recommendation and I cannot stop binging it. Listening to your reviews is like watching & experiencing these movies all over again with fresh eyes. The observations and explanations you bring take the movies to a new level for me. 10/10. Love love love.

Markscaa · Jan 2025

A perfect blend of humor, horror, and surprisingly insightful commentary. Even though I miss Mikey’s humor (he just ran to the store for milk and snacks y’all… he’ll be back) listening to Todd and Paige is equivalent of a weekly spooky sleepover with a group of friends—one of whom is bravely hiding behind a pillow. Five stars for keeping us laughing through the blood and guts!

Lady ScreamsALot · Jan 2025

The longer the show goes on without Mikey, the more it becomes apparent that he really was the heart and soul of THV. There’s no show without Todd undoubtedly. But Mikey was always the secret ingredient. I’m certain I’ll get some hate for this, so be it… Where THV has always struggled is the third host. Jen was an absolute wet blanket, but she was much better than Paige who is just loud, grating, and so much less funny than she thinks she is. If Mikey is gone for good, perhaps it’s time to put this show out to pasture.
