Welcome back to Fright School! We are so happy to welcome Conor to the show! He is a Teaching Professor in the Department of Higher Education and Student Affairs at Bowling Green State! That's a mouthful! We get caught up on the week and chat about his history with horror. Later, our conversation is all about how Higher Education is portrayed in the media with 1998's URBAN LEGEND. We all share our various experiences with urban legends from ghosts on Guam to Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark. What we never talk about? The real villain in all of this: Bonnie Tyler.
