“No Michael Myers. Just masks. And mayhem.”
In this episode of Reel Beans, we dive into one of horror’s most infamous cult classics: Halloween III: Season of the Witch. Joined by special guests Kathryn Horan and Rob Kyle, we discuss the cursed masks of Silver Shamrock, the bizarre mix of witchcraft and sci-fi, and why this Myers-less sequel was reviled in 1982 but has since earned a loyal cult following.
To pair with the film, we’re sipping on Door County Coffee’s Autumn Spice, a nostalgic, cinnamon-clove seasonal blend that warms up the chilly vibes of this VHS-era oddity.
