We know smoking kills, but what if you're already dead? This tale proves weird things really do happen often on cruise ships. Welcome to Whiskey and the Weird, a brand-new podcast exploring the British Library Tales of the Weird Series! This season, we're exploring the first book in the series ‘From the Depths and Other Strange Tales of the Sea.’ Today's featured tale: 'Devereux's Last Smoke' by Izola Forrester.
Bar Talk (our recommendations):
Jessica is listening to the Too Scary; Didn't Watch podcast; drinking Far North Rye Whiskey.
Damien is watching Psycho Goreman (2020, dir. Steven Kostanski); drinking High West Campfire Whiskey.
Ryan is reading the Dark Forces anthology, edited by Kirby McCauley; drinking Ardbeg Single Malt.
If you liked this week’s story, check out Crimson Peak (2015, dir. Guillermo del Toro).
Up next: ‘The Floating Forest' by Herman Scheffauer
