For this episode drop, sponsored by Realm, we have something a little different -- an interview with Laura Purcell, head writer on Roanoke Falls and author of several fantastic historical horror novels including The Silent Companions and The Shape of Darkness.

Beth sat down with Laura to talk about her writing process and about Roanoke Falls. You can also read the transcript here.

The Shape of Darkness has just been released in paperback! UK listeners can buy a copy here and international listeners can find a copy here!
