What if it's not the past haunting us, but the present?

For decades, hair-raising rumours of a tormented soul haunting Wilfred Barrett Drive have put the Central Coast on the map for hosting one of the most haunted roads in New South Wales. In this episode, we take a deep dive into the Jenny Dixon ghost story and look at the cultural impact of urban legends as well as analyse the role folklore plays in societies.

Host and producer: Malin Hägglund
