Comic Crusaders Podcast #635 - Hannah Rose May

Hannah Rose May doesn’t just show upshe arrives, takes the room hostage, and then politely redecorates it with horror, comedy, and charm. On the Comic Crusaders Podcast, we got into her evolution from on-screen performer to full-fledged creator of worlds filled with possession, politics, terror, and wit.

Her breakout comic The Exorcism at 1600 Penn hit the scene like a supernatural mic drop, blending sharp social commentary with cinematic horror. Now she’s back with the newly announced sequel The Exorcism at Buckingham Palace, proving she’s ready to exorcise every global institution one haunted hallway at a time.

We also talk about her chilling work Smile: For the Camera, diving into the fear-soaked universe of the SMILE movies. Hannah breaks down what it takes to write horror with authenticity, humor, and genuine emotional punch.

From her acting roles in Curb Your Enthusiasm, Ballers, Ghosts, and beyond, to the pages of some of the freshest horror comics in the game, Hannah Rose May continues to evolve into a creator with a powerful voice and a fearless imagination.

This interview is a ride funny, insightful, and full of WEPA energy. A must-watch for fans of horror, comics, and creators blazing their own trail.
