Hauntings, Witches & True Crime with Nikki Druce

If you’re into a bit of darkness and mystery, then this episode of Truish is one for you. Daisy Maskell is joined by Nikki Druce! Nikki is a renowned specialist in all things spooky (and she’s hilarious whilst doing it!). She’s the host and creator of Macabre London (the critically acclaimed podcast about London’s history of horror) and she co hosts Killers, Cults & Queens with drag queen Cheryl. Nikki has spoken at events including CrimeCon and, in 2024, was shortlisted for a True Crime Award. On this episode of Truish, Daisy and Nikki talk all things ghosts (what separates a good ghost from a band one), the allegedly haunted painting “The Anguished Man” and their own experiences with spirits… including a terrifying story from an old house that Nikki used to rent! Daisy also shares the details of a study claiming that nearly half of adults watch true crime to unwind before bed plus we find out why witches are associated with brooms (hint: it involves ointment!).
