From a very popular 19th century spiritualist medium, to the Athens Lunatic Asylum and the well-known block party, we explore Athens’ identity as a Halloween capital.
We’ll answer questions like: “Can you connect the dots with local cemeteries and really draw a pentagram over the city?” and “Is Room 428 of Wilson Hall or the Asylum really haunted?” To hear those answers, continue to listen - if you dare.
