2022

Seasons & Episodes

  • 1

EP1 Episode 1 Sep 30, 2022

Queer gothic writers Mary Shelley, Oscar Wilde and Bram Stoker invent the horror genre with "Frankenstein," "The Picture of Dorian Gray" and "Dracula"; when cinema arrives, queer director F.W. Murnau shocks the world with his queer-coded "Nosferatu."

EP2 Episode 2 Oct 07, 2022

Gay director James Whale makes four classics that pave the way for all Hollywood horror movies after, but his career was dimmed by anti-gay sentiment; Alfred Hitchcock uses queer characters and queer coded stories to keep audiences in suspense.

EP3 Episode 3 Oct 14, 2022

Werewolves, cat people, body-snatchers and doppelgängers are uniquely queer metaphors; from the classic "The Wolf Man" to queer-authored "Cat People," the monsters of the 1940s express shame and seek to rid themselves of the secret self.

EP4 Episode 4 Oct 21, 2022

The dangerous queer woman has been terrorizing horror audiences since before the dawn of cinema; the lesbian vampire sucks the lifeblood from women and men alike in the gothic novella "Carmilla" and films like "Dracula's Daughter."
