PLEASE SHARE THIS EPISODE in your social media so others who loves strange and macabre stories can listen too! Find all of podcasts I host at https://weirddarkness.com/links. IN THIS EPISODE: We uncover the chilling case of Mercy Brown; a tale of tuberculosis, superstition, and unearthing graves. The story takes us to a place between reality and myth… and vampires. *** But first – for hundreds of years people have had chilling encounters with what would be described as their doubles. We're peeling back the veil between our world and the uncanny world of duplicates that haunt our imagination – and very possibly our reality. We’ll look at real-life cases of these spectral twins and explore the history and hauntings of doppelgangers!
