lundi 6 novembre 2023 • Duration 46:01
In the shadowed corners of the Victorian era, death wasn't just an event; it was an art form. Wrapped in layers of ritual and superstition, Victorian funeral customs created an eerie dance with the departed. From post-mortem photographs where the deceased posed eerily alive, to mourning jewelry crafted from the hair of the lost, every tradition was steeped in significance. The mourners, draped in black crepe, observed strict mourning periods, their attire shifting in subtle ways as time passed. Whispered tales told of spirits communicating through seances, while ornate headstones and crypts ensured the dead were memorialized in grandeur. Dive deep into the chilling world of Victorian mourning practices, where the boundaries between life and death were delicately blurred. Dive in… if you dare.

Episode 74
mardi 14 février 2023 • Duration 32:33

When things are going great, we go about life in a state of flow, but when something tragic happens to us—or to the world—it stops us dead in our tracks. And even if we don’t think of ourselves as religious, many of us will try prayer when all else seems to fail.
And nothing is more terrifying than the idea of demonic possession. Because not only has the devil thought about you, he chose you. It’s hard to imagine sharing your body with a demon. But according to a study by YouGov, 45% of Americans believe in demons. Do you?
