  • Lights my inner jack-oโ€™-lantern

    I love this show. I have always been a Halloween lover but listening to this had me understanding all the reasons why, and hearing how other people fell in love with the holiday brings me so much joy. Especially when the world can be chaotic, we need something like this thatโ€™s lots of fun and gives us permission to be our full weird selves!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Afterglow: Sean Keller
Q: What are maybe some of the new styles of songs you've tried on this album and is there a song you're most excited for listeners to hear this year?
The album includes a sea shanty, a 1990s boy band track, nostalgic alternative rock, and early-2000s emo and pop-punk influences. Keller is especially fond of the catchy emo-inspired song featuring Matt Glass and Ryan Lambert.
Afterglow: Sean Keller
Q: Can you just give us a real quick recap of what the project is and how it got started?
Keller started by making Halloween mixtapes for friends, then created fictional bands and other imaginary material when he thought he was running out of songs to include.
#94 - Miles McCabe (Brick Thunder) | 5 Points Haunted House
Q: Where did the Brick Thunder name come from and how did you transition to Halloween content?
The name originated from Minecraft collaborations with my dad early on. I kept the handle when I shifted focus to Halloween content in 2020, because it was unique and memorable, and it helped me stand out in the space.
#94 - Miles McCabe (Brick Thunder) | 5 Points Haunted House
Q: Miles, welcome to By Pumpkin's Light. How did you get into Halloween and what drew you to animatronics?
I started with a passion that grew from collecting and learning how things worked, especially animatronics. It began with a simple home haunt and evolved as I gained exposure to events, unboxings, and a community that loves Halloween as much as I do.
#92 - Rich Smith | The Romero Theatre
Q: What can visitors expect from this year's cryptid-themed haunt?
Guests will encounter a witches' coven coordinating with various cryptids to cast a spell and open the veil, with an on-site stamp system for attendees dressed as witches or wizards, creating an interactive, fate-of-the-night experience.
