This week on Scaredy Pants, we’re staring deep into the haunted mirror of Oculus (2013), Mike Flanagan’s time-bending psychological horror about memory, trauma, and a really, really evil antique. One of us is losing track of reality—maybe it’s the mirror, maybe it’s the movie, or maybe we just shouldn't record near reflective surfaces. We talk creepy family dynamics, twinkle-eyed ghosts, and whether this film is actually a ghost story or a slow descent into madness. Is it scary? Is it sad? Is it both?? Tune in to find out whether Sean and Matt survived the mind games—or if the mirror got them too.If you enjoy the show, please subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.
