Hello and welcome to my Victorian nightmare. I'm your host, Genevieve Mannion,

and I'm here to talk about mysterious deaths, morbid fascinations, disturbing stories, and otherwise spooky events from the Victorian era.

Because to me, there's just something especially intriguing,

creepy, and oddly comforting about horror and mayhem from the 19th century. So, listener discretion

is advised.

Hello, friends, and welcome to this my 64th episode.

I hope that you all enjoyed our little vacation episode last week.

I know that I did. I had a glorious vacation in my apartment. I think I left like four times total. I potted around. I sat a great deal. Oh, the sits. I watched Halloween 5 about 400 times on Shutter. Not because it's good, of course. It just brings me comfort and solace in these

dark times, inexplicably. When I did leave my place, I went for a disaster trolley tour of

Greenwood Cemetery with some friends on that gorgeous Saturday that we had last weekend in New York,

like a tour of graves with terrible histories,

and I thought I would love to do that. I would love to lead a tour of the cemetery one day.

Maybe I will. Let me know if you'd be into joining me for something like that.

Oh, I feel so refreshed. I woke up today, so excited to learn

terrible things that it feels like my heart has grown big, shiny bat wings. This was the

epitome of a dream vacation for me.

So then, let's get to it.

But first, a little haunted housekeeping.
