    Apr 19 2026

    Greetings, Dear Guests! We have for you this fine evening the opportunity to get to know some...unusual ladies. Okay. Hags. We'd like you to meet and take into your mushy, human heart a variety of horrific hags! We believe you'll find these unique women are often just misunderstood and have been mislabeled by a close-minded society. We also believe you'll find them to be mysterious, unpredictable...and hungry. From Ancient Greece to modern times, hags have been in the very midsts of mankind, and we suggest you warm up to them! Welcome...

    Welcome Back, Spooky Lovelies!

This PODCAST is fun, compelling, well researched and well written. The setting is unlike any other as you are visiting a mysterious old library to be greeted by Mr. Darling & Miranda Merrick. Ms. Merrick tells you bite-sized tales on subjects like "Witch Bottles" "Windigos" & "Deals with The Devil" -There's also lots of creepy atmospheric details, music, and subtle sounds that accompany her spooky readings- and funny fake ads and strange happenings at the beginning and end of every episode.
