Okay, anything we say here will be a spoiler, so just know more people have read this story than have seen WATERWORLD. Welcome to Whiskey and the Weird, a brand-new podcast exploring the British Library Tales of the Weird Series! This season, we're exploring the first book in the series ‘From the Depths and Other Strange Tales of the Sea.’ Today's featured tale: 'The Mystery of the Water-Logged Ship' by William Hope Hodgson.
Bar Talk (our recommendations):
Jessica is watching OCULUS (2013, dir. Mike Flanagan); drinking Far North Rye Whiskey.
Damien is reading My Heart is a Chainsaw by Stephen Graham Jones; drinking a Lion's Tail (bourbon, allspice dram, lime juice, bitters).
Ryan is reading The Valencourt Book of World Horror Stories Vol. 1; drinking Dewars - again.
