There is no place more famous on earth for its connection to witchcraft than Salem, Massachusetts. Today we are hopping on our broomsticks as we dive into one of New England’s most chilling legends—the infamous Curse of Giles Corey.

Viral TikTok sensation and graveyard wanderer Grace, known to her followers as Graves with Grace instagram and Goodnight Grace on Tik Tok, guides us through the shadowy history of Howard Street Cemetery in Salem, Massachusetts—a place steeped in sorrow, vengeance, and whispered curses.

Accused of witchcraft during the Salem Witch Trials, Giles Corey met a gruesome end—pressed to death under heavy stones. But before he drew his final breath, Corey is said to have uttered a curse that would haunt Salem for generations. Since then, his ghost has reportedly been seen before major tragedies, and a dark legacy hangs over the very soil where he died.

Join us as Grace unravels the mystery, explores the cemetery’s haunted past, and reveals why Giles Corey's curse may still echo through the cobblestones of Salem today.

We finally did it! After 93 spellbinding episodes, the stars have aligned and the cauldron has bubbled just right: today’s episode is all about witches.

Joining us is the enchanting Feeya from The Witches Tour—a walking tour company that haunts the cobbled streets of London, York, and Edinburgh, uncovering eerie legends and forgotten magic.

In this episode, Feeya conjures a tale drenched in darkness and mystery, a chilling blend of tragedy, deception, conspiracy, and grisly death. It’s a story pulled from the shadowy corners of history, where truth twists like smoke and the macabre dances with the magical.

So light a candle, pour yourself a steaming mug of witches’ brew, and settle in. You’re about to be spellbound by a wickedly enchanting tale you won’t soon forget.

Every now and then, a story grabs me and won’t let go. That’s what happened with the Boulder Jane Doe. After reading about the case and discovering Silvia Pettem’s powerful book, and her appearance in Web of Death on Disney+, I knew I had to speak with her.

Silvia isn’t just a gifted author—she’s a masterful storyteller whose passion radiates both on the page and on screen. Her dedication to giving the Boulder Jane Doe her name back after 50 years of anonymity is nothing short of remarkable.

Please enjoy this beautiful journey to give justice to Someone's Daughter. 

Welcome to the third instalment of my favourite short yet scary stories. I have conducted over 100 interviews for The West London Witch, but not all of those stories fit our structure. So what happened to them? Well, the main reason a story does not make it onto the show is because it is simply too short. However, today I decided it was time to dust off some more of my favourite mini stories. I hope you enjoy this collection of boo moments that were just too spooky to sit hidden away on my hard drive.

Have you ever wanted to load up in your 1960's VW Bus withyour best friends and travel the world solving mysteries? Sounds like fun, right? Throw in a Great Dane and endless pizza breaks and I think you could be onto a great TV show! However, in all seriousness, there is something so joyous about paranormal teams that come together to explore the mysteries of the other side. Today members from VPS, Vancouver Paranormal Society, join us to share some of their favourite boo moments. From cults to the mob, to haunted residential schools this episode has it all!

In 1992, the Snedeker family appeared on the Sally Jessy Raphael show to share the horrors that resided inside their Southington, Connecticut home. This now infamous TV interview catapulted the already controversial family into every living room in America.

The family moved into the former funeral parlour in 1986, and experienced such horrendous paranormal activity they turned to famed ghost hunter Ed and Lorrain Warren for help. Their story was so iconic and notorious that it was the subject of the 1992 book "In A Dark Place", as well as the inspiration for the 2009 movie "The Haunting In Connecticut", and endless TV shows, documentaries, and articles.

However, as famous as the story is, it has never been told the same way twice. In this episode Ed and Lorraine's grandson, Chris shares with us, his firsthand account of working on the Snedeker case. You may think you know the story, but have you heard it told by someone who was actually there?

When the Eastern Connecticut Paranormal Society pulled up in front of a tiny cabin filled with bizarre claims of paranormal activity, they had no idea that this mini location would be home to a massive mystery. What the team thought would be a quick and easy investigation turned out to be a wild collision between the past and the present. Join us as David, co-founder of ECPS, shares with us the story behind one of the team's most iconic investigations. 

Pack your bags as we check into the historic Riverside Mission Inn! This one of a kind California hotel is equal parts breathtaking and bizarre.
