Death isn't quite forever. There is more to Marjorie than the House of Nod, the bizarre cult she's grown up in, but they won't let her leave. It's 1940, she is sixteen, and she is determined to find a life of her own. When something goes terribly wrong, Marjorie realizes there is more to the world of ghosts than she ever could have imagined. New episode on the 13th and 30th of every month.

  • Great story!

    I was so pleased to find this when I had finished McGillicuddy & Murder’s Pawn Shop. Another great story by a creative storyteller!

    So glad that she will be releasing episodes every 2 weeks rather than monthly!

  • Wonderful story, beautifully told

    I LOVED Meg's first podcast, McGillicuddy and Murder's Pawn Shop, and was very sad when I listened to the final episode. Thankfully, I was able to jump straight into The Ghost Catchers, which filled the void and then some! Meg's writing just gets better and better with each new episode. I am currently on episode 8, and am desperately trying to pace myself so as not to run out. The premise of this series is absolutely brilliant.

  • A single-narrator audio drama about a girl trying to become a person in a world that keeps trying to get her to give up. It's well written and makes me want to cheer Majorie on. The characters are all expressive and interesting despite the fact we're getting all the details from a single narrator.
