It’s hard to stay terrified when your friend is laughing in your headset. Horror games have given us unforgettable nightmares—but does bringing other players along make the experience better, or take away what made it scary?

This week on Geeks From The Multiverse, Matt and John talk horror gaming from the older classics to newer experiences. From Silent Hill, Resident Evil, and Parasite Eve to the shared chaos of Left 4 Dead, Dead Rising, and Dead Island, we compare playing alone, surviving with friends, and facing player-controlled killers in games like Dead by Daylight and Halloween. When does fear turn into competition—and can a horror game stop being scary without losing its appeal?

Mothman. Skinwalkers. The Wendigo. The Hopkinsville Goblins.

For decades — and in some cases much longer — people have claimed encounters with things that shouldn't exist. But behind the legends are real stories, eyewitness accounts, historical events, and one big question: what the hell did these people actually see?

This week on Geeks From The Multiverse, we're digging into four of the strangest alleged creature encounters and separating the stories from the evidence. Were they misunderstood animals, folklore that took on a life of its own, elaborate bullshit… or is there something we still can't explain?

This Halloween, Geeks From The Multiverse takes a darker approach to mental health in a special EVOLVE episode: Monsters of Mental Health.

What if the monsters of horror could help us better understand the struggles people face every day? From the life-draining Wraith representing depression to the relentless Headless Horseman representing anxiety and panic, we're exploring the connections between four legendary creatures and real mental health conditions.

We'll also examine the Werewolf as a metaphor for bipolar disorder and the Revenant as a representation of PTSD.

Through horror, honest conversation, and a little geek culture, we're looking at the battles people fight that aren't always visible. Because sometimes the scariest monsters aren't the ones in movies.

The person isn't the monster. They're the one fighting it.

Pokémon has officially been catching ’em all for 30 years — and somehow one of us still barely knows what the hell a “generation” is.

In this episode of Geeks From The Multiverse, we’re diving into Pokémon culture: how it exploded into a worldwide phenomenon, the games and trading cards, Pokémon GO insanity, the different generations of fans, and how Pokémon managed to stay relevant for three decades. John brings the Pokémon expertise while Matt represents everyone who basically remembers the original 151 and then completely lost track.

What if you could completely erase one video game from your memory—not because it sucked, but because you’d give anything to experience it for the first time again?

This week on Geeks From The Multiverse, Matt and John pick the games they’d gladly wipe from their brains just to rediscover the worlds, characters, surprises, and memories that made those first playthroughs special. Then we flip the question: what game would we erase from our memories and make damn sure we NEVER played again?

In this episode of Geeks From The Multiverse, we’re building the ultimate fantasy football teams with one ridiculous twist: the entire fictional multiverse is our draft pool.

From quarterbacks and running backs to wide receivers, kickers, and full defensive squads, Matt and John draft fictional characters based on how their powers, skills, strength, speed, and abilities would actually translate to the football field. Who builds the better roster, who makes the biggest steal, and which picks completely break the game?

In this EVOLVE episode of Geeks From the Multiverse, we’re talking about AI relationships — and what happens when artificial connection starts becoming easier than dealing with real people.

From AI friends and emotional attachment to romance, intimacy, and the uncomfortable reality of forming genuine feelings for something that isn’t human, we ask where the line is between AI helping with loneliness and actually replacing human connection.
