Ep 157 - A Darkness Absolute with Caitlin Marceau

A few weeks ago, we had the pleasure of interviewing Chris Krawczyk, the passionate owner of Little Ghosts Books, a spine-chilling bookstore nestled in the heart of Toronto. We delved into the intriguing world of running a horror-themed bookshop and received a treasure trove of recommendations to spookify our summer reading lists. Topping the list was A Darkness Absolute, a captivating collection of scary short stories crafted by the talented Canadian author, Caitlin Marceau, who joins us to give a special reading of the story that inspired the collection's haunting title. Once the echoes of Caitlin's chilling words settle, we'll be joined by Chris and Caitlin for a conversation that explores the essence of the story, the macabre allure of the entire collection, and the profound experience of being a writer in the world of horror.
