Back to EpisodesRevenants for Justice! Poe's The Black Cat
Description
Julie and Jarad discuss a feline revenant this week, Pluto, the black cat, who returns from the dead side to deliver justice. The episode takes some interesting turns as Julie and Jarad discuss how turning people and pets into objects may backfire. A cat might just cash in several of its nine lives to make sure you get what you deserve.
Topics: Alcohol abuse, animal abuse, the inherent domestic violence in this story that often gets glossed over for the more supernatural elements.
