I laughed so hard during this episode, I have a vine (not pumpkins) that I do battle with every year. I feel poor Ada’s frustration
Oh, this makes me love all y’all so much! I am always so upset when horror writers kill off the pets!

This cracked me up so much! Pumpkins. Evil pumpkins!

Love Simon the Siamese kitty. I have loved several Siamese as part of my kitty crew. I hope to see Gary and Simon in a future story. :)

I live in NC and I SWEAR I know someone (or someone's mama) named Ada Spivey 😂

I love you guys for this, keep even ~ perhaps Especially~ fictional furrbabies safe from harm . That and the content warning:"horticultural horror".

We’ve said over and over: there will be no pet deaths in this show. Ever.
Wow. I am about to go clear my garden for the winter, and I'm going to be SO careful about where I throw things. But seriously - not only is this an incredibly, creative, horror piece, it does such a great job of characterization in such a short time. You all are the MASTERS of characterization in horror! (And thanks for not killing off the kitty.)

Oh my gosh. This is maybe the sixth listen and every time it gets creepier and more vivid. So good, Cam.

I listened to this while watering my plants that are slowly taking over my living room. Maybe I won’t add fertilizer this month.
I’m sorry, Ralph WHO from the CVA????

This has such a sound and cadence of a Magnus archives statement and I love it
