This week Jess is back with more ghost stories, BUT WAIT, also a true crime case! Whaaaaat? There's also the story of a possessed toy called Claudia, so that's nice.

Claudia is a bit under the weather, so this week Jess goes it alone to talk about a particularly spooky forest in the midlands that quite honestly you couldn't pay me to go into at night, or in the day actually! Because you know what ghosts and cryptids? You...cannot chase me if I don't go there in the first place! (puns!)

So we established last episode that this horrible act from the 1980s was carried out by some chap called Tyler No...wait no, we found out it wasn't him, right? So who was it then? Listen in and find out to see if Claudia knows and what else the authorities did to prevent further deaths. Also, TCC's honorary third presenter makes more of an appearance this week - everyone prepare yourselves for some Orlagh time!

This week Claudia brings along the first of a two part story about a very subtle, but somehow all the more disturbing set of murders in 1980s Chicago (not that Claudia or Jess know where that is... Yeh I went there!) We hope you find it interesting and come back next Monday to hear the rest of the story which includes the good bit i.e. "whodunnit?"

As you can see by the title, this week's episode is a happy one, because it is clearly about a really jolly chap and nothing bad happens at all... And there's some ghost stories that are also totally fine with no death or terror...ish, apart from a mild scratch from a (ghostly) bed spring, but we've all been there, right?

A little announcement and some information about what to expect in 2024...where Claudia and Jess spend a few minutes apologising for being rubbish podcasters in 2023, and then a good 20 minutes praising Simon for being so great and keeping the whole podcast going with his immense talent and dedication. Sadly most of the recording was corrupted, so only the first bit is actually usable, but Claudia and Jess would just like to echo what their earlier selves said about how brilliant Simon is, and as Jess always says "Sorry Simon" Send us a ghost story: truecrimecovenpod@gmail.com Patreon: www.patreon.com/truecrimecovenpod Instagram: www.instagram.com/truecrimecovenpod Twitter: www.twitter.com/truecrimecoven Facebook: www.facebook.com/truecrimecovenpodcast TikTok: www.tiktok.com/@truecrimecovenpod Thank you for listening, witches! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/truecrimecoven/support
