In this episode, Jack and Emma take you back to the chilling streets of 19th-century London, where the legend of the Hammersmith Ghost ignited a wave of fear and panic. What began as a series of eerie sightings quickly spiraled into a tragic tale of mistaken identity and murder.
Join us as we unravel the strange events that led to the death of an innocent man, the court trial that followed, and the legal questions surrounding self-defense against supernatural threats.
