Hey, thanks for stopping by! This is Generally Spooky History, where we take a deep dive into Scottish history and its spooky tales. You should know that we do things a little differently here.

We’re in no rush when it comes to a good story, and you don’t need to be either. So come and join us for a couple hours!  If hearing about the interesting, unbelievable and sometimes grisly parts of history is your jam, then you’ll fit right in and we’d love to have you. Thousands of others have listened and are already hooked. You don't want to miss out. Listen now. Much love, Kieran and Eilidh
