Summary
As we all know The Moon Under Water is home to an infinite number of spirts, meaning that there are more opticals that can be counted in a lifetime. However, if you enter the Correct Realm on a dark, cold night you'll quickly become aware that spirits of the ghostly kind can often seen lining up behind the bar too. Enter this week's guest, a fan of all things spooky: it's comedian and podcaster Rachel Fairburn!
Rachel is the host of Ghoul Guide with Rachel Fairburn (listen at https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/ghoul-guide-with-rachel-fairburn/id1651875677) where she talks to different guests about some of their spookiest experiences. What's even scarier than that? The idea of missing her smash hit stand-up show, which she's currently touring!
Will her dream pub be a welcoming place to ghosts? Will the Ghostbusters be banned from entering? Well, float your way into The Moon Under Water to find out.
