At 4 years old, my uncle sat my brother and I down in front of It… and accidentally altered the trajectory of my entire life.

In this episode of Redhead Gothcast, I’m talking about the exact horror movie scenes that permanently scarred me, why sewer drains still make me uncomfortable, how my brother became terrified of horror movies while I built an entire personality around them, and the very real pipeline from childhood psychological damage to goth girl adulthood.

Also in this episode:

• I booked a flight to Ireland to see The Cure
• I accidentally posted an INSANE screenshot to my public story
• I shattered my phone screen interviewing a band because my tripod apparently came from Temu

So basically:
trauma, clowns, metal music, emotional instability, and chaos.

Welcome to Redhead Gothcast!

Welcome to Rockville 2026 somehow included thunderstorms, sleep deprivation, emotional damage, artist catering, and me completely forgetting how to function like a normal person.

In this episode of Redhead Gothcast, I’m recapping the absolute insanity of Rockville weekend, including my favorite sets of the festival, surviving the weather evacuation, accidentally sitting with most of Turnstile, introducing myself to Will Ramos, and the overall chaos of spending four straight days surrounded by thousands of metalheads in the Florida heat.

Last week I told you guys what sets I was most excited for going into the festival… this week we’re discussing what actually stole the weekend.

My voice is gone.
My sleep schedule is ruined.
And apparently, my best friend and I are now going to Warped Tour DC.

Broadcasting from beyond the grave…
this is Redhead Gothcast.

I’m finally going to Welcome to Rockville… and somehow, I’ve never been before.

In this episode, I’m talking about what it feels like to go from being 13 years old in my bedroom blasting metal… to actually being in the crowd at one of the biggest rock festivals in the country for the first time.

This is the calm before the chaos.

I talk about the bands I’m most excited to see, what I think the experience is going to be like, and what I'm expecting from my first Rockville.

Also… I recorded this at midnight because I couldn’t sleep, so expect a little chaos.

If you’re going to Rockville or have been before, tell me what bands I NEED to see. The underrated ones. The ones I can’t miss.

I’ll report back in the next episode.
