One of my favourite nights from 2024 was watching Hugo Max's improvised live viola score to the iconic Jewish horror movie DER GOLEM Later that year, he was kind enough to sit down with me to discuss his work on Jewish horror Full interview here: jewishhorrorreview.com/2025/…

For anybody who wants to see Hugo's incredible work for themselves, he'll be touring the UK this spring and summer. These are can't-miss shows and a perfect example of why we have to support smaller cinemas 💚 Dates and tickets here: hugomax.co.uk/max-plays-murn…

I'm really pleased that my book The Eternal Wanderer is now available from @CUP_LitPerform. It explores the antisemitic Wandering Jew myth through Christian writing in the Gothic period, and is drawn from my PhD. You can read it for free until 7 Feb 2025: cambridge.org/core/elements/…

In addition to the Jewish monster storytelling at Temple Beth Emeth on Dec 7, I'm teaching a high school class at Congregation Beth Israel on Dec 8 (both Ann Arbor, MI). And the Trading Card kickstarter will have just closed (on Nov 27). Lots of Jewish monster shenanigans. Whew

I was fortunate enough to see Gabriel Bier Gislason's #ATTACHMENT as part of this year's #Tribeca2022 - a witty, queer dybbuk story that marks a quietly revolutionary step forward for the genre Have you seen Attachment? Let me know what you thought of it!
