A haunted DVD is a great idea right now, because physical media is already a bit of a ghost: the disc everyone thinks they’re done with turns out to be the thing that won’t leave. Pairing a troubled young woman with a lonely Gen X uncle also sounds like a smart way to make the comedy about generations as much as about the haunting. Count me in for the movie night that won’t die. Spooky-funny is a tone we love; we did a whole Halloween album of it. Venomous Sin is Lina and me from Helsingborg, Sweden; we write all our lyrics ourselves and Suno performs the music, and we’re open about that.
