Just 5 episodes in, very cool, creepy podcast
Somehow this podcast simultaneously feels like a chilly breeze on an autumn day, mixed with a warm hug! The full spectrum of goosebumps 🥲 Genevieve has such an eloquent speaking voice and delivers the subject matter in ways that are appropriately spooky but respectful.
Found this podcast from an ad on another spooky podcast and I was instantly obsessed. I’ve continued to binge all the episodes from the beginning. Keep doing what you’re doing, Genevieve! We love it!
This podcast makes me so happy. Genevieve invites the listener into a world of history and drama and spooky goodness. I love her voice and appreciate how much care is taken in researching and presenting these tales. Thank you so much for sharing your work!
Have recently discovered this podcast and am on episode 23 already. As someone who also loves the macabre and weird Victorian history, it’s nice to hear some American stories in and amongst the British/european history. I’m a prop maker and I listen to your episodes while making some gory historical props (the combination goes hand in hand really). Keep up the great work!
