S3 Ep21: Writing Ghost Stories: with Stephen Volk & Ciaran O'Keeffe

The Failing Writers Podcast

With the help of two expert spookologists: Stephen Volk - horror writer & mastermind behind the BBCs infamous 'GHOSTWATCH', and Dr Ciaran O'Keeffe - famed ghostbuster & parapsychologist, we're attempting to figure out what gives us the heebie jeebies, so that we can all go away and write the world's GREATEST EVER GHOST STORY.
That invitation extends to you too, listeners! We want your submissions for our Traditional Ghost Story Christmas Special later in the year.
So get writing - and hopefully we can all sit down round the fire and share a little anthology of all our spooky stories in December.
