1A - Podcast készítő NPR
What scares you the most? Is it something creepy and crawly? Something that slithers?Maybe it's the dark, or the end of the world, or, even worse, a bad report card.We all have things that scare us. And movies are good at making us experiencing those things in a safe way. But why do we even want to do it in the first place? We discuss what we like about being scared. And later... Vampires have been a pop culture staple for decades — as movie monsters and as metaphors for our deepest desires. And whether your favorite vampires are Nosferatu and Dracula, or Louis and Lestat, they all have a few bloody things in common.We get into why the vampire myth prevails and how the vampire genre is changing, during our Spooky Roundup.
