Haunts, Frights and Murder: It's the Sinister South Halloween Spooktacular!

Hi Trevor's, Hannah here... I'm putting out a public service announcement, this episode is all for Rach, I couldn't give a damn about Halloween, but I quite like her and she loves it. She calls it her "Spiritual Holiday", so...I buckled to the pressure and we've done an episode with a bit of a twist (I say twist, we're pretty sure EVERY true crime podcast does something similar at this time of year, and apparently Rach likes bandwagons). Don't say I didn't warn you!

Rach here... I BLOODY LOVE HALLOWEEN! So In this episode, we're really putting the 'Sinister' in Sinister South and talking about the spooky, creepy and weird tales that South London has to offer! Think ghosts, decapitations, death, destruction and chilling apparitions, think macabre, desperate, hauntings all with a dash of pumpkin spice... (Which would have been my moniker had I been in the Spice Girls)!

Also, Will had ALOT of fun editing this one as you'll hear...

Usual service will resume next week but let me have this one okay! It's been a bit of a month guys, let us have some fun!
