Episode Ep. 111 - The Tragically HAUNTED History of the Kreischer Family
In this episode, Genevieve will discuss the tragic history of the Kreischer family, the many deaths, mob murders and truly creepy hauntings of the Kreischer family mansion that still stands to this very day. She will also discuss the recent discovery of a body that received a vampire burial in the 16th century and what other “deviant” and “anti-revenant” burial practices entailed.
