01/14/21 • 49 min

Hello Again! Thank you all so much for continuing to listen to our show. It has been a trying 12 months for everyone and we hope you're staying as safe and as connected as possible.
This week we talk about the life and legacy of one of the most formidable women in Russian history, Catherine the Great. Was she all that she was cracked up to be, or were real cracks forming?
As always, we have a ridiculous death, and our one this week shows why it's never a good idea to torment something that can eat you...

Join us, this spooky season for something a little different... a little darker.
This is the first episode of A Dark Cup of Histortea, where we delve into the dark and often disturbing parts of history. Today, 13 days before Halloween, we delve into the case files of famous paranormal investigators, Ed and Lorraine Warren.
Instead of a ridiculous death, we've gone for a ridiculous ghost this time.
Parental Advisory - Some adult themes and language, you might want to listen along before you let your kids listen

Welcome back to a second episode of A Dark Cup of Histortea! Our first spooky episode, In High Spirits, is now our most listened to episode of all time, so we know that you guys like the dark stuff as much as we do.
In honour of it being Valentine's Day when we're releasing this, we're taking a look at the type of ghost known as the Lady In Red. Usually a woman jilted or murdered by her lover, some can also be the ghosts of prostitutes. We take a look at the legend itself, and give you some famous examples from around the world.
Got a story of your own about a Lady In Red? Why not let us know on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram? Or if you've got a request for a future episode, either historical or spooky!
