Presented by Wonder Monger & Cambridge StorytellersNell has trodden dusty streets at dawn,
peered into neglected glass cabinets
and sat in the dark feeling that she is not quite alone,
compiling supernatural stories from Ancient Egypt,
the back streets of Guatemala
to Nell’s own kitchen table..

about the strangest encounters,
inexplicable events and
voices that whisper in the dark.
