Hi there, it's your host, Chris Moss, and there is a new podcast I think you'll like, and I'm

going to tell you about it. It's called Ghost Story. Journalist Tristan Redman is going where no son-in-law

should ever go, deep into his wife's family history, digging up the cold case of his wife's

murdered great-grandmother, and asking questions no one in the family wants answered. Oh, and did I

mention that he's looking into whether the murder was actually

his wife's great-grandfather, the beloved family patriarch? Well, this all started with a ghost. That's right,

a ghost growing up, weird things would happen in Tristan's bedroom, objects moving around with no

explanation, light switching themselves on and off. But ultimately, he shrugged all of this off until a

couple years ago when he discovered that every subsequent occupant of his old room was convinced they'd experienced inexplicable things in there too.

From Wondry and Pineapple Studios comes Ghost Story, a podcast about family secrets, overwhelming coincidence, and the things that come back to haunt us.

I'm about to play you a clip from Ghost Story. Follow Ghost Story on the Wondery app or wherever you get your podcasts.

It's a murder mystery, and it's a family drama.

By which I mean it's about my wife's family, her family's history.

And there's a chance they'll disown me for doing this.

If you come out with a piece that says he was a murderer, then I will be sorry that we ever said we would contribute to it.

But before we get into any of that, let's start at the beginning with the thing that set all of this in motion.

When I was 16 back in the 90s, my family moved to an old Victorian house in London on a street called Queens Road.

I slept in a bedroom tucked into the creaky top floor

and weird things would happen up there.
