The gang kicks off season five with the OG OD (that's occult detective, boomer) story! Join the ride as we sip and speculate, share our recommendations, and stack rank famed psychic investigators through the ages. On name, mostly. Welcome to Whiskey and the Weird, a podcast exploring the British Library Tales of the Weird series! This season, we're dissecting our fifth book in the collection, ‘The Ghost Slayers: Thrilling Tales of Occult Detection.’ In this episode, our featured story is: The Story of the Moor Road by Kate & Hesketh Prichard.
