Surprise! I’ve got a spooky little bonus episode for you today. 👻

If you didn’t know, I recently launched a new podcast called History’s Dark Corners, where I explore eerie legends, mysterious events, and forgotten stories from America’s past. It’s all about storytelling — not jump scares — so think Disneyland at Halloween Time, not Universal Studios Horror Nights.

Today, I’m sharing one of the most popular episodes from History’s Dark Corners: The Vampire of Exeter. It’s a fascinating (and true!) tale from Rhode Island’s past that explores how fear and folklore led to a real-life vampire panic.

If you enjoy this story, I’d love for you to check out History’s Dark Corners wherever you get your podcasts — new episodes drop every Tuesday!
