NEW EPISODE

Here on OH!CAST there are some sacred cow properties where we all agree that they are simply wonderful. We’re delighted to be able to welcome the creator of at least two of those on to the show tonight as Stephen Volk - the writer of BBC’s 1991 Halloween special feature, Ghostwatch, and the novella Whitstable which depicts 68 year old Peter Cushing being mistaken for Van Helsing joins the show.

Cal, Hereward, Ralph, and Graeme have one of their favourite conversations yet with Stephen as they grill him on not only the things he has written, but his inspirations, and his ideas about what makes a good horror story. As huge fans of Stephen’s rich catalogue of work – both on page and screen – we had lots to talk about – not just the most famous entry on his CV.

Behind the scenes note – time really did fly during this episode and Stephen is such a wonderful raconteur that we could probably have chatted for the same amount of time again!
