What the hell is brimstone? Did the devil even go down to Georgia? And, does he only play the fiddle?

    America's Most Haunted Castles (Family Friendly Spooks)

    Most of us aren’t likely before Halloween to make it to Transylvania to visit one of the most spookiest castles, and most well known, Bran Castle. However, I did find some equally eerie and possibly haunted castles right here in the United States that promise to be quite spirited. Find out why the Hearst Castle in California is filled with such mystery surrounding the millionaire. Hear about the eerie hauntings of Galveston, Texas following the Great Storm of 1900 and how Bishop Palace became one of Galveston's most haunted destination. Take a boat ride to Heart Island in the Thousand Islands in upstate New York to hear the heartbreaking story of Boldt Castle and why a lonely bride still wonders the island.

Such a great fun podcast!!! Definitely recommend!

If your a fan of history, true crime, the paranormal, or just some wonderfully crafted cocktails, this is the podcast for you. I just started listening a few days ago and I’m HOOKED! This podcast is very well written as the narrator Vivian takes you on a themed cocktail adventure through different events in history. She does a great job researching the topics and is evidently very intelligent. Episodes aren’t too long which is great if you listen while commuting or working like me.
