Halloween Special 2017

If on Halloween you come across a looped branch of briar-thorn sticking up from the ground, you might decide to creep through it three times in the devil’s name.

And perhaps that night, as she lay her head to rest, a man did come to her in a dream; his handsome face, his dark hair and his striking blue eyes, appearing to her from out of the flames of a fire, and his name, Michael Cleary whispered like a warning, but long forgotten by the first light of day…  Warning: Contains some graphic imagery that some may find upsetting.Go to @unexplainedpod, facebook.com/unexplainedpodcast or unexplainedpodcast.com for more info.
