WARNING: 40 YEARS WORTH OF SPOILERS AHEAD

Dirtlings, sometimes best laid plans go off the rails and down a mine shaft. Our chill and spooky After Hours episode turned into a deep dive of the Halloween movie franchise! Follow your hosts Ellsworth and Big Spoon headfirst down the Dirtstar to learn about one of the scariest horror villains of all time: Michael Myers.

Riley is going to cover the ‘machete cut’ version of the movie timeline spanning a horrifying forty years of stabbery and unlucky babysitters while Ellie clocks every wild plot hole (despite confusing Jason Voorhees for Michael Myers), yet we still somehow make sense of it all in the end. She also has some stellar Halloween jokes for you to share with other fellow Dirtlings at a party of your choosing, some epic movies and series you NEED to check out during spooky season and of course, Ellie tops off the episode with a terrible Ellsworth Would You Rather.

Don’t worry Dirtlings, we promise to cover hair-raising urban legends in an ACTUAL After Hours!
