In this episode Christin tells Chris the story of the West Virginia murders that inspired Davis's Grubb's novel, Night of the Hunter, that Steve Agee and Charles Laughton turned into the 1955 movie of the same name that they discussed last week. They discuss the new Bly Manor and The Stand trailers, how the real Harry Powers is not nearly attractive as Robert Mitchum and how the book and movie adapted the real story.
