To a new world of gods & monsters  | Earth Station Boo

This week on Earth Station Boo, we travel back to the golden age of horror with a celebration of the Classic Universal Monsters. These legendary films helped shape the horror genre and continue to influence it today.

We revisit the gothic dread of Dracula, the tragic horror of Frankenstein, the chilling howls of The Wolf Man, and the eerie depths of The Creature from the Black Lagoon. Each of these iconic monsters left a lasting mark on horror history.

During the episode, we break down what makes each monster so memorable. We discuss the makeup magic and groundbreaking special effects that brought them to life. We also explore their legacy through decades of remakes, reboots, and reinterpretations.

Were these monsters truly villains, or were they misunderstood figures trapped by fate? We also look at how Bride of Frankenstein and The Invisible Man challenged audience expectations. Most importantly, we ask why these characters still resonate nearly 100 years later.

Join us as we share our favorite films, discuss the cultural impact of the original monster mash-ups, and imagine what a modern Universal Monsters universe could look like. Whether you’re Team Dracula or ride-or-die for the Gill-Man, this episode is for you.
