About this listen

 Welcome to Tickled to Death, the horror movie game show where the screams are fake but the laughs are real. Each week comedian and horror fanatic Roz Hernandez (Ghosted!, Hulu’s Living for the Dead) invites actors, comedians, and podcasters to battle through trivia, improv, and ridiculous challenges pulled from iconic scary movies and cult classics. One week it is slashers, the next it is Stephen King or folk horror. October brings witches, werewolves, and Halloween itself. Guests include Harvey Guillén (What We Do in the Shadows), Jed Shepherd (Host, Dashcam), Ross Bryant (Dimension 20), Gavin Stenhouse (Kung Fu), and novelist Lin Codega (Moth Eater). Their mix of comedy, acting, and horror cred makes every episode unpredictable and always funny. It is spooky, it is ridiculous, and it is built so you can play along at home. New episodes drop every Thursday starting September 25. Don’t get tickled to death. Art
