Ruth is Stranger Than Fiction

Episode 15 - Hallowe'en Special: Spooky Cambridge


Listen Later

Happy Hallowe’en to you all! We’ve got some spooky stories for you this episode with further investigations into ghostly goings on through the history of Cambridge. Our special guest is Justin Crane, who recounts some tales of the macabre and mysterious and offers a rather alarming box of wine. We also cover Abbey House, said to be the most haunted building in the city and home to an unlikely selection of phantoms, including an overbearing squire, a tragic nun, and a strange creature called Wolfie.
