In Dead Mall the Penn Mills Galleria is about to be demolished. Five teens sneak into the mall to take a last look around before it’s gone. However, while Penn Mills has been closed for years, the mall is far from abandoned. A night of exploration becomes a shopping spree from hell. The teens must contend with the sprawling, transformative cosmic horror of Penn Mills or be trapped forever within the Dead Mall.
The group discusses Malls, horror, comics and so much more!
Also, letterer on Dead Mall, Justin Birch, joins the podcast in March.
