Part one of our spooky special is LIVE to kick off Halloween month (yes, it gets a whole month now) Ghost-stories galore as well as our top horror genre picks - we throw it back to Halloween nostalgia from the 90’s and celebrate the facts and folklore around the origins of Halloween! We had SO much to say on the topic, that we’ll squeeze a part two in later this month, so - it’s not too late to regale us with your tales, too! ( @noothercraic_pod on Insta)
