  • Fun spooky

    I like this podcast a lot. I first heard it on a crossover with Sightings. Genevieve’s voice alone is like velvet and is very soothing and I love the content, especially the supernatural stuff. Currently in bed with Covid and binge listening, so thanks for the comfort and entertainment.
