The paranormal comedy podcast where we probe a Wizard’s Curse. The sheriffs of Salem have been inflicted by a strange coincidence of health difficulties over the centuries since one Giles Corey was pressed, literally, for a plea during the Salem witch trials. Giles was an honourable and trustworthy man who may, or may not, have held strong for their family. But before then, was Giles born at the age of three? In probing this case, we discover that olden times law is crazy and olden times court, is absolutely wild. The things that went down in court were utterly crazy but went down they did for we have documented evidence of today’s episode. We know that Giles met a horrid demise above 80 years of age during 1692 and we know beyond doubt, that Giles placed a curse on Salem as Giles passed away. For Giles was a wizard. Alongside the case, we uncover how to create a ham monster. We also discover how the honourable and trustworthy deal with the loss of a loved one. All that and more on this week’s file.
