  • Summary

  • Host Tristan Redman is a seasoned journalist who doesn’t believe in ghosts. But weird things happened in the bedroom he lived in as a teenager. When he discovers years later that subsequent occupants of the same house have been visited by the ghost of a faceless woman, he’s curious. Because it just so happens that Tristan’s childhood home is right next door to the house where his wife’s great grandmother, Naomi Dancy, was murdered in 1937 – killed by two gunshots to the face. Could there be a connection between the ghost and the murder? Tristan decides to investigate and soon finds himself going where no son-in-law should go, deep into his wife’s family history, asking questions no one wants answered.

    Naomi’s husband, Dr John Dancy, emerged from the murder scene a hero. He’s known in the family as “Feyther” and is still revered as a larger-than-life figure by the family. But as Tristan examines the police records, he soon finds himself where no son-in-law should ever be - questioning the family narrative about what really happened in 1937.

FASCINATING!

Tristan and crew do an amazing job of telling this story. It is full of surprises, strange coincidence, greed, and ghosts. The narration and storytelling draw the listener in masterfully. I really, really like this!

Interesting and highly fascinating!

Tristan has a knack for storytelling, and this podcast has me engrossed to the point that I can't wait to hear more. If I could rate it higher than 5 stars, I would have, without hesitation.

interesting and entertaining

I binged this entire podcast while painting my living room one Saturday, and honestly loved it. Not only is it utterly fascinating, but it is so enjoyable and entertaining. I cannot recommend it enough, and I sincerely hope that Katie allows Tristan to do a season 2😊

Fascinating!

I was only expecting a ghost story...so... was skeptical at first. Tristan and his colleagues do a great job of reeling you into this complex tale of murder and intrigue. I'm looking forward to the next episode.

Amazing story

This is an awesome story. I love how it started out as a ghost story but turned into a true crime story, and I love how Tristan talked to multiple people to get to the bottom of it, to find out the truth. I'm going to be sad when this series ends.
