And All Through the House

December 24, 2017

The happiest of holidays to you! We gather to discuss a classic Horror Christmas tale, "And All through the House". We compare the 1972 "Tales From the Crypt" film segment with the 1989 episode from the television series. Also, fair warning, there is Christmas disco at the end of this episode (truly terrifying).
