    Welcome to episode 388, where we're screaming inside! This is the gossip episode; first we go deeper than even we usually go into our anxieties about adulting and the process of writing an entirely new live show, then Em brings us the salatious hauntings of Cock Lane (can someone please tell us why that's funny?), and lastly Christine covers a story full of sad, terrible gossip in the story of Suzanne Sevakis (part one, tune in next week for part two). And help us say a fake goodbye to the Troll Hole... and that's why we drink!

    E387 Adulting Cheat Codes and Dramatic Readings of the Cha Cha Slide

    It's episode 387 and should we pause?? We might be having some technical difficulties but that also might be next week's episode, we're not sure because we're releasing episodes out of order! This week Em covers something in Christine's neck of the woods in the story of the Old Licking County Jail. Then Christine gives us a sneak peek into the new book with the stories of the murders (and a bonus ghost) from the Claypool Hotel in Indianapolis. And how the fuck does anyone get a turtle? Not like judgement wise, just logistically, we don't even know how to call the city... and that's why we drink!

This took me a while… sorry for looong review

I came here from creeps & crimes and I’m sorry I’m late to the party. I’m 39 and mum to an 18 year old girl Maia and 5 year old beagle. My daughter has adhd and autism & I’m waiting for my adult diagnosis of adhd and I need to point out that how I didn’t know is the real mystery. Maybe that’s an idea for Em’s story. The mystery of how eilish didn’t know she was ‘special’ and it can add in Maia’s disco ball brain theory of neuro science. Christine’s crime story could then be about all my ex boyfriends and my criminal choices in men (lovely husband now) anyway to review myself which I seem to be doing right but I wanted you to know a bit about me. I have a fun fact about your episode about miners, pits and haunted mines. My uncle was the last miner to die in Britain just right before his 50th. He was my mums twin brother. So maybe not a fun fact but we are proud. I live In Scotland been to Loch Ness, I live near an abandoned asylum called Hartwood where I love to walk and feel at peace and this could also be an interesting story for an episode. Anyway I give myself 5 stars haha. So onto review, I discovered podcasts after a developing ptsd and having to go off work for a bit. I tend to walk the dog quite a bit and it was a change from music. I love folklore and true crime and having two stories in one episode stops me getting too bored. I think I like sharing of snippets about you both and I like the way a story is told by you both. I don’t mind the adverts and I’m delighted I have so many epidsodes to binge. I laugh along with you and I’ve just been chuckling at the queen constanople thing. Anyway sorry again for reviewing myself

Binge listen

Came this way from Sinisterhood who are my original ride or die. Love Em and Christine’s banter and openness in talking about their mental health and chronic illnesses

Unnecessary Waffle

I lasted 20 minutes into Episode 1 before unsubscribing. Far too much chat about nothing before getting into the story and even when we got there, the speakers didn’t hold my attention due to the unnecessary amount of waffle. Annoying vocal fry and silly giggling from the hosts which makes the episode sound unprepared and unprofessional. Unsubscribed and unfollowed.
