In this episode, Craig and Andy dive into the early, creeping hauntings of Borley Rectory—a location once dubbed "the most haunted house in England." Before the infamous Marianne Foyster era brought absolute chaos to the blue room, the Rectory spent decades quietly accumulating strangeness under the Bull family and the brief, chaotic tenure of Eric Smith.

We explore how Britain's premier ghost hunter, Harry Price, first arrived at the scene with his kit of fingerprint powder and mercury gauges, and we chat about how our modern fear of ghosts compares to historical perspectives on the paranormal.
