Gin & Spooks

This week we take our first tentative steps towards the curtain between life and death... When we die, are we truly gone forever? Or can our spirits continue on to haunt the living? As we are both missing nights out, we thought we'd start by telling tales of hauntings in some of our favourite places - PUBS. So pour yourself a pint of your favourite beverage, and join us for some spooks! Music is Hell of a Scary Night by Neil Cross, cover art by Morgina Finney

WE ARE BACK after our little break! Bringing you all the witch action of the UK in the 1600s. We have some torture techniques, excerpts from the trials, and a discussion on Matthew Hopkins (ultimate prick). Hear stories about the Bakewell Witches, the Pendle Witches, and Molly Leigh - was she a witch or just a bad ass independent woman? Cover art by Morgina Finney. Music is Hell of a Scary Night by Neil Cross.

MERRY SPOOKMAS ONE AND ALL! This week Laura tells the story of St. Nicholas' best buddy Krampus, Emma tells of some weird and wonderful Christmas traditions from across the world, and we both find everything hilarious for some reason. Shadow the cat can also be heard chirping in the background again (we might let her host a whole episode one day). So mull some wine, and join us for some spooky festive fun. Music is Hell of a Scary Night by Neil Cross. Cover art by Morgina Finney.

Please note, we cover some disturbing topics in this episode that people may find distressing. Listener discretion is advised. This week Laura and Emma are once again joined by their resident (unqualified) criminal psychologist (& at one point her husband Richie) to discuss women who kill. It's not just men who murder! Though according to the stats, it is mostly men... Anyway, we've picked out 3 women - Aileen Wuornos, Miyuki Ishikawa (the demon midwife), and Myra Hindley - who certainly give the murderous men a run for their money.  APOLOGIES for the rubbish audio, this was recorded over zoom during lockdown.

This week's episode involves serial killers! Along with guest star Morgina, we discuss their crimes, the mystery behind them, and their methods. Hear about the Golden State Killer, the Zodiac Killer, and pig farmer Robert Pickton. Please note, we cover some disturbing topics within this episode, listener discretion is advised.

Join Emma and Laura (& guest star Shadow the cat) as they discuss Cursed Film Sets. Are they actually cursed, just a marketing technique, or pure coincidence? Come and hear the cursed stories of The Exorcist, The Conjuring, The Crow and James Dean's car and see for yourself! Music is Hell of a Scary Night by Neil Cross and cover art is by Morgina Finney.
