Inspired by the many myths and legends surrounding Disney's classic Haunted Mansion attraction, GRIM follows Jason Holloway, a historian obsessed and perhaps even haunted by the stories of the old Gracey estate in New Orleans. His search for answers takes us on a journey through history as we see the tale of the Gracey family unfold throughout several ill-fated generations. It is a tale of lovers, pirates, tycoons, mystics, and murderers, all part of a puzzle that leads to a truth laying in wait, hiding just below the surface. But be warned, friends. The truth can be quite GRIM.

Customer Reviews
Better than the Movies!
Disney should have consulted with Mr. Unofficial before releasing the Haunted Mansion films. Grim is so well written and so well produced. Incredible storytelling across the board 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Home for the Holidays is a must-listen for fans of mysteries and immersive audio experiences.
The show's premise of three hitchhikers stumbling upon a mysterious family gathering with a significant inheritance at stake is a perfect recipe for suspense and excitement. The snowy Christmas Eve setting adds to the atmosphere, making it a perfect listen for the holiday season.
The storytelling, character development, and the overall production quality were excellent. It's always a delight to discover podcasts that can transport you to a different time and place. While I am not super familiar with The Haunted Mansion lore, it didn’t stop me from enjoying the show.
Love the Christmas special!
I don’t think I made a review for the original show, it’s such a well written and produced story that any Haunted Mansion fan could love! And the Christmas special is even better!
