And we’re back – just in time for Halloween!!!!

For this episode we watched two recent releases: Onyx the Fortuitous and the Talisman of Souls (2023) and We Have a Ghost (2023).

In Onyx the Fortuitous, director Andrew Bowser introduces a larger audience to his character Onyx, a fledgling occultist, and a group of fellow worshipers, who attend a once-in-a-lifetime ritual at their idol Bartok the Great’s mansion. Bartok’s intentions are more nefarious than they seem, and Onyx must find a way to save his friends from damnation. Along the way, Onyx must confront his own inner demons and decide whether he is destined to be a nobody or a hero. If you’re unfamiliar with Onyx, check out Andrew Bowser’s Youtube Channel

We Have a Ghost, directed by Christopher Landon, introduces us to a family, who discovers a ghost named Ernest haunting their new home. The family decides to help Ernest become famous online, but their plans are threatened by a paranormal investigator who wants to capture Ernest for himself. The family learns to accept Ernest as part of their family and helps him find peace in the afterlife.
