Shownotes

Sploosh, supernatural serendipity, and the “Troubled Teen" Industry… Oh lawd, it's about to get pretty dark! Join these ‘90s kids to celebrate and unpack what is, arguably, one of the best book-to-film adaptions ever created. This time, they’ll revel in magical, mystical romance, wax poetic about generational curses and cycles, plus build character while exploring deeper themes of abuse in teen “rehabilitation” programs, and America’s dark history with segregation and racial prejudice. This is a heavy one, Darklings, but it’s important, and your Ghost Hosts hope you enjoy it with all the same curiosity you’d bring to the Scholastic Book Fair.
