If you're into true crime, tarot, and scandal, then 'Toil and Trouble' by Audio Always will be right up your alley.
I briefly crop up talking about Madeline Montalban and the Order of the Morning Star in episode 3, which is lovely.

Huge thanks to all who came out to my ‘Short History of Celebrity Seancés’ talk as part of the London Month of the Dead programme. It was such a joy to be invited to speak, and in Guy’s Hospital Chapel no less! Mulled punch and Elvis’ afterlife - can’t beat it! ✨

While spending most of my day at Kensal Green cemetery I managed to read @katecherrell.bsky.social pamphlet on her early short fiction, inspired by Franz Kafka's The Metamorphosis, and each story was brilliant.

Enormous thanks to all who braved the weather to support 'Fantastic Folklore' at Lincoln Book Festival! It was such a joy to interview Fiona Robertson, Icy Sedgwick, and Richard Daniels and I left with a far greater appreciation of stones, gloves and vampire rabbits.

I tried tackling one of the internet's most enduring tales of terror - the story of the undead witch, Anna Maria von Stockhausen.
A real tale of an evil woman who kept coming back, or a myth of the internet age?

The appeal of Anna Maria Von Stockhausen’s image is a curious, gruesome urge to look at the forbidden.

On a recent visit to Corsham (was I visiting friends or was I scoping out a secret government UFO base? You decide!) I was very kindly led to St Bartholomew’s Church with the promise that ecclesiastical treats lay inside.

In the middle of a field, surrounded by enormous cows, sits a tiny white grave encircled in black fencing. This is the grave marker of Robert Snooks, the last Englishman to be hanged for highway robbery back in 1802. 🐮
