Pilot: Tortured Whispers & Exquisite Corpses

In our pilot episode, we take inspiration from a ghost tour-pub crawl (Nightly Tours) we went on and recap one of our favorite “haunted” sites in Seattle: Kell’s Pub. Formerly home to a corrupt mortuary, you’ll hear about the ghosts as well as some history about the one-stop-shop Butterworth & Sons funeral home active in the early 1900s. We’ll also take a deep dive into the life of quack, fraud, swindler, alternative medicine practitioner, confidence trickster, and serial murderer, “Dr.” Linda Hazzard. Hang out with us as we unpack the eerie, and learn about how all of these stories connect.
