  • DAYS 27 & 28~ THE TRIAL FOR MURDER, Charles Dickens
    Oct 29 2025

    Days 27 & 28 were a doozy! In this episode, we step into the eerie courtroom of Charles Dickens’ chilling ghost story — ‘The Trial for Murder.’ First published in 1865, this haunting tale blurs the line between justice and the supernatural. Was it guilt, vengeance... or something otherworldly that swayed the verdict? Stay tuned — the trial is about to begin.”

  • DAY 26~THE WITCH'S DAUGHTER, John G. Whittier #podcasts #stories #gothic #literature #witch
    Oct 27 2025

    ~YOUTUBE AUDIO~ Find the video here for captions: https://youtu.be/7odVDV8ePmE

    DAY 26! The Witch's Daughter, by John Greenleaf Whittier, explores themes of social prejudice, religious intolerance, and the resilience of the human spirit. I like this story's moral, to think of others with compassion and refrain from judgment, and I hope you can understand it through the old English poetry.

    Day 25 of our Countdown to Hallows Eve contains three poems involving witches. One from the perspective of a woman who helps a witch, one of the witches themselves, and one of a woman who perhaps wished ill upon a witch.
