Scott Wampler, the co-host of the popular Kingcast podcast on the works of Stephen King, was found dead at his home in Austin, Texas, today. No details were immediately available, including his age and cause of death.
Co-host Eric Vespe posted online about the news.
“Scott Wampler passed away today. He was my friend, co-host, and partner in crime. I’m still in shock. I don’t know many details, but I know it was sudden and he was with friends.”
Horror filmmaker Scott Derrickson called Wampler “one of the brightest lights on my film community,” “always engaging, highly intelligent and disarmingly funny.”
The Kingcast podcast invites famous artists to discuss their choice of works by Stephen King. Past guests included Elijah Wood, directors David Lowery and Guillermo del Toro, and even King himself after a few years and 108 episodes.
Wampler proudly recounted the moment with King.
“King told me to get a life after I asked him a deeply nerdy question about the biological relationship between three monsters from various novels he’d written,” Wampler said in an interview with the Dallas Observer. “[It was] a direct quote from the old SNL sketch where William Shatner loses his patience with a bunch of nerdy Star Trek fans. Spoken entirely in jest, of course, but a moment so good we singled it out and used it to promote the episode.”
Wampler and Vespe worked together as film journalists before embarking on the podcast.
“It was like one of the only things that Eric felt qualified to do a podcast about because he was so well-read, and I had read all the books,” Wampler said. “Stephen King books were something we were already talking about anyway.”
