Episode 54: Scarewaves, Siren Head, and more with Trevor Henderson

Where do our fears come from? For some of us, it’s past experiences… others, maybe a fear of the unknown… but if you're anything like the team at Unspookable, there is one man responsible for many of the characters, illustrations, and creatures, be it Cartoon Cat, Anxious Dogs, Long Horse, or Siren Head, that give us the shivers. We’re of course talking about writer and illustrator Trevor Henderson who sits down with Unspookable producer Nate DuFort this week to talk about where these ideas come from and his new middle grade novel Scarewaves available now from Scholastic Books. That and more on today's episode of Unspookable.
