Summary

This week we introduce you to One Strange Thing, a podcast that brings you some of the oddest stories from America's regional newspaper archives. And these tales all have something in common: they are entirely true, and feature elements that can't be explained by logic alone. In this preview, they explore how a mannequin with human hair became a doll, and lifelong companion and/or scapegoat, for an eccentric Floridian artist. The rest is (haunted? possessed?) history, and it’s exactly as unsettling as you might guess. And then some. Hosted by Laurah Norton Researched by Bryan Worters and Maura Currie Written and Produced by Maura Currie Engineered by Brandon Schexnayder Sources on our website: https://www.onestrangethingpodcast.com/ Pre-order Laurah’s book, LAY THEM TO REST: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/laurah-norton/lay-them-to-rest/9780306828805/ Find One Strang Thing on Twitter: https://twitter.com/OSTPod Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/onestrangethingpod/ and Facebook https://www.facebook.com/One-Strange-Thing-114307627035607 Learn more about your ad choices.
