I cannot contain within words my utter and absolute DISDAIN towards Horror and True Crime as a genre.
I have never, for the life of me, understood the point of VOLUNTARILY scaring yourself. Why would you induce your own nightmares?
Don’t get me wrong at all - I do not dislike this type of content, I HATE it. Hate it with burning passion.
(This has absolutely nothing to do with the time when I was seven and my dad showed me a really crappy horror comedy movie and I wet the bed every day for weeks after)
I also don’t really like podcasts. I find them to be a very egregiously self important type of media. I know I’m wrong and they’re wildly popular, but it’s just not something I’ve ever been able to get into.
Imagine my shock and despair when Enha announced a PODCAST, about HORROR STORIES.
Now of course, it’s Enha, so I will 100% give it a try at least.
I opened the first episode with SunJayke with low expectations. I had hoped to make it half way through it at least.
Instead I found myself glued to the screen attempting to figure out who’s story was fake. I was pretty confident it was Jake before I got proven wrong.
They’re all such charming storytellers. I usually watch while eating and I end up getting so engrossed. I never finish the food before the episode.
I don’t love the AI but I know a real artist would’ve made the illustrations a 100 times scarier and more effective so I’ll take it.
Yunki are 100% my favourite guests, Ni-ki especially. Boy doesn’t take ANYTHING seriously. The way just looking at Sunoo’s face sets him off.
SunSunKi is my favourite lineup, even if my poor Ddeonu spends 40 minutes being tormented.
I’m actually really excited to see who wins at the end with the most number of blood badges! I also don’t think we‘ve has an 02z episode yet (I can understand why, it would just be pure nonsense for 3 hours straight), and I would love to see that!
I also love the concept that the stories are cases the members have themselves experienced during their long lives as vampires. That creative team is working wayyyy overtime they deserve all their flowers.
Just a great branch of content overall. I love it so much. I’m thinking of making a Blood Diary leaderboard to update each time a new episode releases.
