Wooden Overcoats Presents: Conversations with Ghosts
2025/11/12
On this episode, we’re giving the feed over to a podcast we think you’ll really love - Conversations with Ghosts. It’s the newest audio drama from the creators of Archive 81, The Deep Vault, and Generation Crossing, and it’s all about loss, history, and the things we leave behind. Conversations with Ghosts follows mausoleum attendant Mal Fleming as he tries to convince the spirits of Grey Briar Cemetery to pass on. In each episode, Mal sits down with a new ghost to build a portrait of their life, their death, and their afterlife... all to help them release whatever still ties their soul to this reality.   This episode, “Bridget Keegan,” involves Mal Fleming trying to help the ghost of a maid who’s been cleaning out the cemetery for over a century.   Find Conversations with Ghosts wherever you get your podcasts.   Listening link: https://pod.link/1843137773 Website: conversationswithghosts.com Learn more about your ad choices.
