The cursed hotel of H.H Holmes

The cursed hotel of H.H Holmes

Cheryl and Nikki Druce are turning back the clock to travel to Chicago and learn about America’s most prolific serial killer H.H Holmes. The inspiration behind American Horror Story’s Hotel season, this wiley and manipulative killer started his dodgy and murderous ways way back as a young 20 something. After people went missing wherever he went, he decided to open up a horror hotel, filled with traps, rooms like something out of a Halloween house, and a body chute that went all the way to the basement… but how did a simple pharmacist go from helping people to doing the worst things imaginable to people? Cheryl and Nikki are going to find out. Expect a very caffeinated Chez, and the kind of hotel that you can check out of, but never leave…

This episode contains graphic details of violence, and murder, including violence against children. This episode also includes mentions of suicide and suicide notes. It is not intended for all audiences. Listener discretion is strongly advised.

The Spooky Sleepover: Can you manifest a ghost?

Cheryl’s mid-air and producer Alex is away, but Nikki is joined by a very special guest (and I think our spookiest one yet), Jed Shepherd — an actual horror movie maker. Jed’s film 'Host' is scientifically proven as the scariest horror film EVER. Together we’re deep diving into our rabbit holes of the week: can we manifest ghosts? Jed takes us back to the playground ghost hunts he used to run in primary school and it turns out… he started to get haunted by his own ghost and if you lived in south London, maybe you were too? Plus, we uncover if some prop bodies may actually be real life HUMAN CORPSES?! And we discover the origins of the Sourtoe Cocktail — the drink garnished with a human toe. Would you be brave enough to take a sip? Find out What Nikki and Jed think!Find Jed here: https://www.instagram.com/jedshepherdGot a theory? Been lost in a rabbit hole? We want to hear from YOU!
