Episode 2 1408
When the Room Won't Let You Leave
In this episode of Mind Over Murder, Kallie and Teresa step into Stephen King’s 1408, a psychological horror story about a skeptical writer who dares to check into a hotel room with a deadly reputation. What begins as a cynical investigation quickly turns into a descent into grief, trauma, and the terrifying power of isolation.
We explore how 1408 blurs the line between supernatural horror and psychological breakdown, and why the scariest part of the film might not be the ghosts at all—but the weight of unresolved pain. Along the way, we share personal stories, dig into Stephen King’s recurring themes, and discuss why Room 1408 feels more like a predator than a place.
🎧 Tune in for a chilling mix of horror analysis, psychology, and family conversation that might leave you wondering what doors should never be opened.
