In this week's spooky Christmas adventure, Kinda Kyle and Galen discuss the possible gay alignments of the ghosts of A Christmas Carol, and dish on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's tragic fascination with séances and fairies. They delve into Boston's murky history of spiritualism and séances to unlock Harry Houdini's efforts to expose the witch of Lime Street, the mysterious Mina Crandon- and get a little spooky and a little gay along the way.
