[Note from Frolic: We’re so excited to welcome our friends at Meet Cute to the site today! They’re sharing some amazing spooky rom coms with us. Happy Halloween!]
Happy spooky season from your friends at Meet Cute! Whether you’re dressing up for a Zoom costume party or leaving a bowl of candy on your front stoop for trick-or-treaters, this year’s Halloween is sure to be unforgettable. If you’ve already re-watched Hocus Pocus for the 10th time and are in need of more chilling entertainment, here are 8 rom-coms you can listen to as you work on your DIY costume.
Each of these audio rom-coms is a little bit creepy, a little bit silly, and a lot romantic. From a haunted house that kidnaps a crew of paranormal hunters, to a VHS tape cursed by a teenage demon, there’s something for everyone’s desired fear-level. And unlike the average frightful audiofiction, these are still rom-coms at their core! Everyone gets a happily-ever-after, even the creepy crawlies.
You can listen to new Meet Cute 15-minute rom-coms all week on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and Stitcher.
