Show Notes
Our reading this evening is issued with a rare "Heartbreak Warning" It tells the story of how one young man's obsession influenced the governing of his country, and gave unchecked power to the courts who worked in partnership with the church in order to ruin the lives of countless innocent people, primarily women, by first accusing them of witchcraft, then capturing and torturing them- and then ultimately murdering them. The story is true and the victims deserve our attention, our respect, and an effort to prevent this and similar actions from ever happening again. The story contains the brutal facts about the torture that was inflicted upon those who suffered. May they rest in peace.

Accidents will happen. It seems no matter how hard we all try, things just sometimes have a way of getting mixed up. Shoes go on the wrong feet. The right key goes into the wrong lock. And a live person gets buried, even though they're not dead. It happened, Dear Guest, and more than once. Now, please have a seat and enjoy our special blend of Gravedigger's tea... and I'll tell you all about this kind of accident...twice. Single article source for short story read⬇️ Quoted article: https://www.lurganancestry.com/mmccall.htm Special Thanks to Sounds Like an Earful Music Supply for the amazing music AND sound design.
Welcome, Dear Guest! Please take your seat for a stone-cold treat! Tonight, we are Hellbent on sharing the eerie story of Murder Stones. These morbid, mournful monuments are strewn across the United Kingdom and are meant to mark the spot of many a murder! Join us for a triple telling of ghastly bump-offs, and how one murder stone inspired a second...in honor of the murderers! Tonight's sponsor is The League of Lady Gravediggers Special Thanks to Sounds Like an Earful Music Supply for the amazing music AND sound design.
Welcome Back, Spooky Lovelies! We think there's no better atmosphere to begin our NEW SEASON than a swamp! Or better yet, to have a nice visit with Swamp Witches! First we'll have an array of swamp monsters, then we'll feature glorious Native American Owl Witches, a cursing Voodoo Swamp Witch, and a Swamp-dwelling Witch who transformed herself into a tree! Our reading tonight is proudly sponsored by Grimm's Grocer's Moonlight Madness Sale. Grab your waders and join us...if you dare...

Join us tonight while an exclusive, private discussion between Miranda and Mr. Darling takes place! It seems a bit of Hellish mail has arrived bearing the most demonic news! A new member of The Midnight Library staff is arriving. Immediately! Are you ready? Special thank you to Mr. Darling.
Let us visit the long dead. Let us travel beneath the bustling streets where they dwell. We believe the 16th-century Capuchin Monks had the right idea! Don't bury your dead and forget them. Place them in tunnels and dress them up in their best duds, then invite everyone to visit them, forever! Tonight, we return to our stomping grounds: a beautifully dreary catacomb with 8,000 dead to gaze upon. One... is rumored to open and close her eyes. Join us below!
