I was walking through town one morning when I noticed lots of unspooled audio cassette tape tangled in the railings of a church. Curious, I turned to my friend and said - 'I guess it must be kids messing around.' He shook his head and said, in all seriousness: 'No, that'll be the witches - they record themselves saying curses against churches and wrap them around churches.'

Baffled, I asked him where he got the idea that 'the witches' were plotting against Christians...he pointed me to a book called 'From Witchcraft to Christ', which claimed to be a true story of a Christian woman who had once been an important leader in the shadowy world of the occult....

Was her story true? That'll be for you to decide, as we start this special two part Frightful, telling the story of "Doreen Irvine - Queen of the Black Witches?"

Features Zoe Holly Barke as the voice of 'Doreen Irvine'.
