Along the way, we discuss the 2025 horror film Sinners, Ryan Coogler’s acclaimed vampire thriller starring Michael B. Jordan. With its themes of Black identity, community, music, generational trauma, and the forces that seek to destroy what people build together, Sinners gave us plenty to talk about as we made our way to Greenwood.

It’s another Scream Queens road trip where horror, history, culture, and the places we visit all come together. We talk about the film, the history behind Greenwood, what we experienced at Greenwood Rising, and why this particular road trip felt especially important.

Hop in the car, turn it up, and come along for the ride. 🚗🩸🎬

It's hard to believe, but Scream Queens Horror Road Trip Podcast is celebrating 10 years! To mark the occasion, we're going back to where it all began by revisiting—and completely redoing—our very first episode: JAWS.

Join us as we hit the road to Gulf Shores, Alabama, where we dive back into Steven Spielberg's timeless shark classic and see how our thoughts have changed after a decade of horror road trips, conventions, and countless movie discussions.

Once we reach the coast, we trade great white sharks for white sand beaches, spending a few relaxing days soaking up the sunshine by the pool and the beautiful Gulf. It's the perfect blend of horror, travel, nostalgia, and celebration as we look back on ten incredible years with all of you.

Thank you for riding shotgun with us on this journey. Here's to the next decade of spooky adventures!

We spend the weekend soaking up the spooky atmosphere, browsing vendor booths packed with obscure horror movies and collectibles, sitting in fascinating celebrity panels, and meeting some incredible guests—including Gina Gershon, Mira Sorvino, Emma Roberts, and more!

Whether you're a convention veteran or have always wanted to experience Texas Frightmare for yourself, come along for a weekend filled with horror, laughs, unforgettable celebrity encounters, and plenty of creepy fun.

During the drive, we revisited the 2019 horror thriller Crawl, discussing everything from its relentless tension to its surprisingly terrifying reptilian stars. Once we arrived in the tiny town of Idabel, we spent our time exploring wetlands, swamps, and backroads while keeping our eyes peeled for wildlife.

We spotted birds, turtles, and plenty of other fascinating creatures, but when it came to alligators, only Justine managed to catch a glimpse of one! Join us as we review Crawl, share stories from the swamp, and take you along on another unforgettable horror road trip adventure. 🐊🚗🎙️

Before takeoff, we kick things off in true Scream Queens fashion—recording in the car and diving into the cult classic film that started it all. Then it’s off to the theater for a night we won’t forget.

From the performances to the staging, directing, and jaw-dropping costumes—this production delivered on every level. We break down what made it so special, why it captured the spirit of the original while feeling fresh, and why we were completely obsessed from start to finish.

Plus, we gush about our love for Broadway and the magic of seeing live theater in NYC.

Grab your fishnets and get ready—this episode is a celebration of all things Rocky Horror and the thrill of a Broadway adventure! 🎭

Along the way, we dive into the 2017 folk-horror nightmare The Ritual, unpacking its dread-filled atmosphere, grief-driven story, and one of the most terrifying creatures in modern horror. It’s a shorter trip, but packed with unsettling discoveries, strange energy, and just enough chaos to keep things deliciously spooky.

Hot woods, weird vibes, and questionable life choices—just another day on the road with your Scream Queens. 🔥🌲😈

Between dissecting suspicious love letters, chaotic dance scenes, and that killer cherub mask, we sip our way through vineyards, snack on incredible food, browse the cutest shops, and fully commit to hot tub time (because what’s a slasher discussion without bubbles?).

And yes… we even locked eyes with a RHINO at The Rhinory. Romance isn’t dead — it just has a horn.

Grab your besties, pour a glass, and watch your back this Valentine’s season. 💋🔪🍷

On the drive through the pines, we’re diving into the unsettling, uncomfortable, and wildly effective found-footage gem CREEP. We break down why Mark Duplass’ performance is so skin-crawling, how the film weaponizes awkwardness, and why “Tubby Time” may never mean the same thing again.

Once we arrive in Hochatown, it’s full cozy-chaos mode: hiking the trails, brewery hopping, winery sipping, distillery tasting, indulging in amazing local eats—and of course… a whole lot of Hot Tub Time (which we now exclusively refer to as TUBBY TIME because… if you know, you know 🛁👀).

It’s the perfect blend of rustic relaxation and psychological horror as we ask:
Is Creep one of the most effective found footage films ever made? And would we survive a weekend alone in a cabin with Josef?

Grab your peach fuzz mask and join us for another road trip filled with laughs, scares, and just a little bit of Tubby Time.

But the horror doesn’t stop there—we hit the streets for the Tulsa Christmas Parade, soaking in twinkling lights, marching bands, and small-town holiday magic (with our horror-loving brains finding the creep factor where we can). We keep the festive vibes rolling with local shopping, brewery hopping at spots fully decked out for Christmas, and an indulgent five-course meal at Juniper that felt like its own kind of cinematic experience.

It’s a road trip episode packed with yuletide cheer, elevated eats, and brutal holiday horror—proof that Christmas can be cozy, classy, and completely unhinged all at once. 🎅🏻🩸🎄

For Episode 118, we’re covering Sleepaway Camp 2 while actually camping — and yes, we went full Camp Rolling Hills: we split logs, shot guns, survived a chaotic three-legged race, held a cocktail competition worthy of a counselor talent show, and then capped the night off by watching Sleepaway Camp 2 under the stars like the happy little campers we are.

Join us for s’mores, screams, and some very questionable campfire singing as we dive into all the kills, the quips, and the absolute 80s madness that makes this sequel such a cult favorite.

Grab your sleeping bag and press play — it’s a killer good time!

Join us as we talk werewolves, zombie chef, Satan’s Super Sweet 16, corn maze chaos, and all the gloriously unhinged Halloween vibes that only South Park can deliver. Then hear the play-by-play of our pilgrimage to the newly revamped Casa Bonita’s, complete with cliff divers, endless sopapillas, haunted decor, and that thrill of finally living the episode we’ve quoted since forever.

Was it worth the drive? Did we get starry-eyed? Did we re-enact scenes? Did we almost cry in the Black Bart’s Cave hallway? (No comment.)

Grab your trick-or-treat bucket and hit play.
This one’s spooky, silly, nostalgic, and delicious. 🎃💀🌮✨

While in Memphis, we soaked up the local flavor—sampling BBQ, sipping brews at local breweries, and strolling along the mighty Mississippi River. But the heart of our trip was learning, reflecting, and connecting the themes of Get Outwith the history and lessons we encountered at the museum.

It’s an episode full of laughs, road trip shenanigans, delicious eats, and important conversations. So buckle up, press play, and join us for a road trip that’s equal parts fun and thought-provoking!

But before the art gets weird and the portals start glitchin’, it’s time to take a detour into the creepy classic that launched a million red-faced demons—INSIDIOUS! We're talkin’ astral projections, tip-toeing Tiny Tim tunes, and a whole lotta spooky shenanigans that made us question every creak and shadow in our motel room.

Expect pun-packed paranormal pondering, plenty of Insidious insights, and of course—catty commentary as we explore the feline-fine fever dream that is Meow Wolf Dallas. Was it real? Was it unreal? Was it… reel unreal?

Hop in the hearse, scream queens—this one's got art, heart, and a demonic dart into horror history!

👻 Meow you later!

Join us as we dish on our road trip to Dallas, our flight into paradise, and our stay at the Gran Sirenis resort—where the drinks were bottomless, the food was endless, and the horror came only from our hangovers. We're talking lazy rivers, foam parties, poolside mayhem, monkey sightings, a surprise snake encounter (!!!), and sun-soaked shenanigans that kept us screaming with laughter.

Grab your SPF and your slasher flicks—it's a tropical horror getaway you don't want to miss!

Buckle up, gore whores, because the SCREAM QUEENS are hittin' the road and heading deep into the heart of horror – that’s right, we’re back at our favorite spooky shindig, the one and only Texas Frightmare Weekend! 👻💀

In this fright-filled episode, we rub elbows (and possibly souls) with horror royalty like Linda Blair (yes, that head-spinning legend), the dreamy Griffin Dunne, and scream queen rising star Melissa Barrera! From celebrity chills to convention thrills, this trip had more scream-cred than a final girl’s diary.

We boogied like it was 1989 at the blood-soaked ’80s Horror Prom Party, played a killer round of horror trivia at a game show hosted by the groovy one himself, Bruce Campbell, and of course, shopped ‘til we dropped… dead (into a pile of merch).

So grab your crucifix and hairspray – it’s an episode packed with slays, spooks, and squeals. This isn’t just a podcast, it’s a horror-lovin’ road trip with a killer playlist and even deadlier puns. Let’s Frightmare and chill, babes! 🩸🎤🎬

From rooftop demonic portals to firehouse headquarters, we walk in the ectoplasmic footsteps of Venkman, Spengler, Stantz, and Zeddemore—and yes, we totally geek out over it. Join us as we mix horror, history, and hilarity in a city that never sleeps (especially when haunted).

Who ya gonna listen to? Scream Queens, of course!

While rolling through the Northeast Corridor, we dive into the bloody, brutal world of The Midnight Meat Train (2008), a visceral horror flick based on Clive Barker's chilling short story. We talk about the film’s moody urban aesthetic, Vinnie Jones' terrifying silent performance, and just how far one man will go for the sake of art (and survival).

It's gore, glamour, and great train vibes—don’t miss this one!

In this episode, we dive into the 1993 cult classic Leprechaun, where Jennifer Aniston is running from a tiny, gold-obsessed killer. We’re not saying the leprechaun has more luck than us, but Josh managed to lose his $20 in the slots in just 2 minutes. Yes, you heard that right – 2 minutes. Meanwhile, Justine doubled her money like a pro, but don't worry, she still couldn’t beat the house. We hit up every bar we could find, indulged in appetizers and cocktails on the top floor (fancy, right?), and spent the night living our best lives, people-watching in the casino. Spoiler: there’s a lot to see.

So buckle up, grab a drink, and get ready for a wild ride through leprechaun lore and casino chaos. It's Scream Queens, baby – we might not be lucky, but we’re always having fun!

We swapped horror stories while hiking through the peaceful trails (and avoiding any surprise twists in the woods), ate our weight in pizza 🍕 (because nothing says “terrifying” like the fear of a food coma), and soaked in the serenity of nature... with a side of supernatural suspense! And let’s not forget the Beavers Bend Brewery 🍻, where we raised a glass to great beer and even better company. The quiet charm of the cabin was a killer backdrop for our movie breakdown, and let’s just say the hot tubbing was un-boiling over with fun.

Tune in to hear us discuss Knock at the Cabin, share our killer trip details, and enjoy our blend of horror and humor – because when it comes to road trips, we always make sure the fun never dies! 🚗👻

In this cosmic episode of Scream Queens Horror Road Trip, we’re blasting off to Houston, Texas, to explore the out-of-this-world Johnson Space Center and the legendary Mission Control center. Join us as we take a tour of NASA's historic headquarters, reliving the exciting moments of space exploration and getting up close to some incredible space exhibits at Space Center Houston.

But before we reach the stars, we take a deep dive into the sci-fi horror world of Alien 3. From its troubled production to its chilling atmosphere, we discuss all things alien and dissect what makes this divisive entry in the Alien franchise so unique.

Whether you're a space enthusiast or an Alien fan, Episode 108 has something for everyone. So buckle up, it's time for a thrilling road trip to the stars and a deep dive into one of sci-fi's darkest chapters!

In this chilling (literally) episode of Scream Queens Horror Movie Road Trip Podcast, we braved a blizzard to get to Santa Fe, New Mexico! Our snowy saga led us to the mysterious Loretto Chapel to see the miraculous staircase and the historic San Miguel Mission. But before we could bask in the spooky splendor, Mother Nature decided to give us the cold shoulder, shutting down highways and forcing us to spend the night in our car. Talk about a frosty reception!

While navigating treacherous road conditions (and questioning our life choices), we discuss the 2018 gothic horror hit The Nun. From cursed convents to snowbound shenanigans, this episode is packed with holy horrors, icy puns, and just enough frostbite humor to keep things chill. Don’t miss this divine disaster of an adventure—it’s a habit-forming good time!

We watch Sleepaway Camp with Felissa Rose in 35mm in Dallas! and then we puke and talk about it in our car in the Alamo Draft House parking lot!
