A Podcask of Amontillado

Hosted By
Gary Mitchel & Erin McGourn

This is your invitation into the shadowy cellars of horror—where every episode uncorks a new tale of terror, dread, and delightfully dark discussion. From chilling classics and cult favorites to modern scares and overlooked gems, we explore the twisted tales, sinister cinema, and macabre myths that haunt our imaginations.

Inspired by Poe’s chilling tale, this podcast is a toast to the eerie, the unsettling, and the beautifully bizarre. So pour yourself a glass, step into the crypt, and join us... before the last brick is laid.

It’s too late to turn back now... go on, press play.

Help keep the crypt open — and remember… the cask is always waiting.
