What is a Ghoul Guide? A ghoul who guides? Or one who guides ghouls? Maybe a guide TO ghouls? Or even all of the above? We are @literaryla & @MazGoing, academics with a love for all things Gothic. The Ghoul Guides is our multimedia endeavour: making content to entertain & inform

Sorry we’ve been so quiet lately, but once I’m settled in my new hermitage and have a furnished space that doesn’t sound horrible in mic we will be back to conduct The Ghoul Guides Association once again. Or catch up on our Gothic pop culture & history: podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/ghoul…

Hello ghouls, you may have noticed we’ve been quite quiet lately despite the promise of new content - we hoped it would be a brief pause, but as things never go to plan we are officially on a hiatus while Lauren finishes moving and actually has a set up again to record from!

We will return to our usually semi regular programming after the summer, we promise. We have content planned, we just haven’t had the time, resources or set up to do it well. But we will rise again to chat shit about Gothic history and pop culture, whether you like it or not

This new volume edited by my brilliant pals is out now, including a chapter by me exploring how Atwood’s speculative dystopia series, MaddAdam, highlights the destructive, consuming nature of anglophone Christian structures. All very fun light hearted reading…

"Religious Horror and the Ecogothic" is out now! Check out the new edited collection examining the intersections of Anglophone Christian horror and ecological and environmental criticism: rowman.com/ISBN/978166694… @MazGoing

A note on this episode: I do know that the Angles and the Saxons were originally Germanic, okay? I just had a lot of history in my head and Britain makes so much stuff up about itself sometimes I can’t remember what’s legit and what’s not

‘Chivalry is dead and I killed it, rest in pieces’ Mary Shelley, 1824. Probably. Maybe. Potentially. In Part Two of our dive into the Gothic history of chivalry we talk about chivalry’s C18th evolution and our girl Mary Shelley #GothsAssemble spotifyanchor-web.app.link/e/A0wwi5IQIJb

As a tween, I think I watched A Knight’s Tale at least once a month with my sister and in hindsight it may have ended up having some influence on my academic interests… Part 1 of 2 on the history of chivalry and its deep influence on the Gothic is now liiiiiive #GothsAssemble
Ghoul Guides@TheGhoulGuides

Chivalry - dead or nah? The first of two eps all about the history of chivalry & its intersections with the Gothic is now live! Featuring stellar academic commentary like ‘war is just men running at each other’ & gushing how good A Knight’s Tale (2001) is spotifyanchor-web.app.link/e/sGIXcGPPiJb

"At first I thought the Real World was run by men. And then there was a minute where I thought it was run by horses. But then I realized that horses are just men extenders" If you want to know the importance of men & horses in the Gothic, then boy do we have an episode for you!
