The Final Ghouls are back and wallowing in a haunted manor as we dive into 2012's The Woman In Black! Holly, Jeremy and L weigh in on Hammer Film's big return with a re-adaptation of Susan Hill's ghostly novel.

Get Ready For: Our levels of experience with Hammer Films, lots of Daniel Radcliffe thoughts, Jeremy's defense of Swiss Army Man, appreciation for the gothic horror vibes and lack of enthusiasm for the mystery element, the overwrought nature of Arthur's sadness, Holly's questions about why anyone with children would live in Crythin Gifford, L's appreciation for the moody tone, thoughts on the period elements, and differing views on the final moments of the movie.

The Final Ghouls are back and stuck in a closet for the weekend as we look at 1988's The Lady In White! Holly, Jeremy and L jump into Frank LaLoggia's supernatural horror film starring a young Lukas Haas, Alex Rocco and Katherine Helmond.

Get Ready For: Holly's love for the film growing up, Jeremy and L's pre-watch expectations of a La Llorona story, thoughts on the in media res opening, the surprisingly dark tone for a gateway horror film, director Frank LaLoggia's Spielbergian approach to the 1960s period elements, L's appreciation of the visual effects work, how early Jeremy and Holly identified the killer, and why the racial injustice subplot doesn't particularly work for us.

The Final Ghouls are back and going back to the prom as we tackle the 1972 classic Carrie ahead of its 50th anniversary -- and just as the new Mike Flanagan series arrives! Holly, Jeremy and L discuss Brian DePalma's adaptation of the Stephen King novel starring Sissy Spacek as the titular character and a terrifying Piper Laurie as her mother.

Get Ready For: Our experience levels with Stephen King's work, Jeremy and L's love of Locke & Key (mostly the comic), the one-two punch of bullying and religious extremism, Holly's memories of high school girls being the worst, Miss Collins' penchant for slapping teenagers, Sissy Spacek's titular performance, Brian DePalma's directorial flourishes, that iconic prom scene, and the final jump scare.
