The Dead Mother: Zombie Motherhood

What if your baby's nighttime feedings were being handled by a ghostly visitor? Join us, Sofa Sitter and Knob Twister, as we unravel the haunting Russian fairy tale "The Dead Mother" with our signature mix of humor. In the first chapter, we serve up a hearty helping of laughs and chills as we tackle the sorrowful story of a father grappling with his wife's death right after childbirth and questioning an old woman’s passive observations and the eerie nightly feedings that leave listeners wondering who's tending to the baby.

Brace yourselves for the second chapter, where things take an even creepier turn. We venture into spine-tingling speculation about the gory logistics of zombie motherhood. Is zombie mother's milk a thing? Can curdled zombie milk be fatal? Expect a rollercoaster of laughs and gasps as we wrap our heads around these bizarre concepts, ending with a reflection on the eerie and darkly funny world of undead parenting. Perfect for anyone who loves a good ghost story with a side of comedy!
