Season of the Witch – Archive Note:
As part of this year’s Season of the Witch, we’re bringing our two-part Charles Walton case back into the feed. Charles Walton’s story connects with some of the new cases we’re covering this season, so we thought it was the perfect time to revisit it.

The Charles Walton episodes were originally released around 14 months ago and have been refreshed with our current music.
As summer wanes and the nights grow long, we turn to tales of witches, curses, and the old ways that never truly died. For centuries, harvest time has carried its own magic: charms for fields, blessings for homes, and darker stories of those who bent nature to their will.
