Mental Health is Horrifying
Journey into the horrifying depths with Candis Green, Registered Psychotherapist, (and all around spooky ghoul), as she explores how horror is really a mirror into ourselves.
If you're someone who watches horror movies and thinks — that nasty old well that Samara climbs out of in The Ring is really a metaphor for her grief — or Ghostface at his core is a spectre of intergenerational trauma... then tune in to explore how mental health themes are portrayed in your favourite horror movies and beyond.
Mental Health is Horrifying
The Witch — Satanic scapegoating
In this episode on The Witch (2015), I explore the psychological concept of scapegoating and how it can drive a woman straight to the devil. Hail Satan.
Mental Health is Horrifying is hosted by Candis Green, Registered Psychotherapist and owner of Many Moons Therapy.
