Episode 4

The Hype Train Part 2

Class is officially back in session, and the chalkboard's already bleeding. In The Hype Train Part 2, the Night School Horror faculty reunites for another deeply unaccredited dive into the most unhinged corners of the horror hype machine. Sabrina returns from her mysterious sabbatical dragging emotional trauma and maybe an actual leash. Tommy launches a full-blown attack on books (and the people who dare to read them). Meanwhile, Mista Malave vanishes mid-lecture, possibly summoned by a haunted Bluetooth toothbrush.

We sniff out horror stories told through dog eyes (it’s giving Air Bud meets The Babadook), spiral into grief-core narratives that punch you in the soul, and rant about haunted theme parks like it's a thesis defense at a ghost convention. Toothbrushes talk. Theme parks scream. And someone’s crying in the back of class—we won’t say who (it’s Tommy).

Tommy Terlecki

Born in Brooklyn, NY, Tommy James has made it his life’s mission to watch every movie, good, bad, and aggressively confusing—and judge it accordingly. As Your Favorite Movie Therapist, he dishes out scathing but oddly comforting “prescriptions” to characters who desperately need therapy, all while leaving audiences laughing, cringing, and occasionally questioning their own life choices. When he’s not doling out advice, he’s compiling The List: a catalog of movies, and people so frustratingly awful that, inevitably, your name ends up on it. Armed with encyclopedic film knowledge, sharp wit, and The Smooth Effect, Tommy is the lovable, insufferable cinematic force you didn’t know you needed.
