Witch n Mix

23. Vampires and gaslighting pugs

And we're back again! For how long? Who can say! You’re welcome to skip our boring London journey discussion until28 mins when the New England Vampire tale begins. Grind my gears gets a bit dark this week… it’s because of the gothic tale I’m sure.

22. One for swallow, two for joy

After a period of bad luck we are back with tales of timeslips. Mimi also went on a Pompey ghost walk - stay tuned for the monk at the Round Tower at some point in the near future/next year.

21. Just leave me to rot in a castle

It’s part two of the Witches of Pendle and Liv takes us through the backstabbing trial. A child of 9 provided evidence against her own mum! It’s a new format now, with one story a week, which Liv forgot. But as always we’ve got pug interruptions, a touch of feminism, and what’s grinding our gears this week.

20. Fuddy duddy willies

And we’re back again! Mimi is so committed to the podcast that she got haunted purely for content. We discuss if it is acceptable to burn a hotel down because of a ghost, we’ve got an Uncannycon confession (an Uncannyconfession if you will), and being fat shamed by a surgeon. Liv brings us part 1 of the Witches of Pendle – a tale about bloody men ruling the world basically. Or a tale about witches in the 1600s. Enjoy!

Mini Mix 8: Ghosts in space question mark?

Coming at you with another mini mix this week as we’ve got a sad update which we will share on the upcoming main episode, so this week we’re back with the mommoth book of hauntings, drunken banter (from Mimi) and a cheeky little cryptid which we’d recorded straight after the last mini! We also finally get to the bottom of how much a Freddo costs. Luna and Molly feature on this one and we hope you love it.
