"Today Copper Alley will mourn its best mistress, and wives the town over will breathe a small sigh. Today is a sad day for vandals and misfits, today Darkey Kelly is going to die"

Happy St Patrick's Day Fiends! This year we bring you the dark and stormy Legend of Darkey Kelly, A brother owner and murderess who was hanged and burned at the stake (that's right, hanged AND burned at the stake) for sacrificing her baby in a deal with the devil. 

Dorcas AKA "Darkey" Kelly's story takes us into the brothels of eighteenth century Dublin, down the poverty stricken gutters known as "Hell" behind Copper Alley, through the rich hunting dens of the mysterious Hellfire Society, deep into the woods near St. Stephens Green and along the narrow cobblestone road to the Gallows where a crowd has gathered to watch the most notorious execution of it's time. Pour yourself a Guinness Slammer and leave some treats our for the fairies, because we have a wild one for you this year!

This two part podcast special is THE top source for information on Darkey Kelly, these guys went into every newspaper and historical record available in Dublin to find the true story that had been wrapped in years and years of legends. They really did the damn thing.
