The Horror Dads are honored to be rejoined by artist, musician, friend, and fellow Horror Dad, Matty Ryan Tobin for the honorary 100th Episode. Matty joins John and Jamie in the midst of the spooky season to discuss another set of Hidden Horror Gems. The group digs deep and collects 9-films that live outside of the limelight, but that are still worth a watch. This is the second edition of Hidden Horror Gems - listening to Part I is not necessary (but recommended, because it’s a great episode).

Matty is a highly accomplished artist, and has worked with some of the most influential IP’s in Horror. Check out his work HERE.
