The Kingcast returns from hiatus next Wednesday, January 29th, with a brand new permanent co-host. Anthony Breznican has signed up for this new tour of duty for the show and before we hit the ground running next week I figured I would post this episode where you can get to know Brez a little bit.Â
This episode was previously only available on The Kingcast Patreon (www.patreon.com/thekingcast, sign up now!).

263: An Interview with Bill Skarsgard and Willem Dafoe
Chaos reigns as Bill Skarsgard and Willem Dafoe talk with Vespe about their current flick Nosferatu as well as all their favorite Stephen King things. Both actors have King connections. Bill's is obvious, Willem will be a deep cut for King nerds.Â

262: The Mist with Allie Goertz
Stephen King's The Mist is a novella about the residents of a small Maine town stuck in a grocery store as an unnatural mist rolls into town concealing all sorts of Lovecraftian horrors. Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile) made a very divisive, but hugely effective, adaptation in 2007.

261: Suffer the Little Children with Gaspare Randazzo
Originally published by Cavalier in 1972 and re-published in King's 1993 short story collection Nightmares and Dreamscapes, Suffer the Little Children is one of his nastier tales about an old schoolmarm who is becoming convinced her 3rd grade class is slowly being taken over by mischievous dopplegangers.Â

260: Silver Bullet with Steven C. Miller
Silver Bullet focuses on young Marty Coslaw (Corey Haim), a boy in a wheelchair who is the first to figure out that the mysterious deaths in his small town are the work of a rogue werewolf. Based on a novella by King, illustrated by the late, great Bernie Wrightson, this '80s movie is one that holds up more than a lot of its contemporaries.
