It was once believed that during the days around the winter holidays the dead visited the living. A holdover from this belief is the tradition of sharing ghost stories at Christmas in England, that is now becoming popular on both sides of the Atlantic.
Here are 3 ghost stories for Christmas I narrated for Bone & Sickle podcast, lavishly soundscaped and scored for your enjoyment: https://www.boneandsickle.com/2022/12/23/a-christmas-ghost-story-2/

A Christmas Ghost Story - Bone and Sickle

The Christmas Eve ghost story is a fine old tradition associated with Victorian and Edwardian England, one we've happily embraced since 2018.

I hate commercials and try to avoid them, but at the same time, if you never see commercials, you can't pretend to understand America.

@SophieMHistory so interesting, the way that time (or maybe just history) can collapse a bit when you are with very old people.
