Will isn’t present for this episode, but he was definitely there in spirit. For the main discussion, the Ghouls weigh in on Lee Cronin's debut feature THE HOLE IN THE GROUND.

Alexz binged on genre all day and watched THE MUMMY, THE MUMMY RETURNS, HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL and THIRTEEN GHOSTS. Ashley has nothing but praise
