Grimming It Up
Grimming It Up is where the strange, unusual, and true crime collide. I share stories about historical events and true crimes that are lesser known. I share urban legends and lore and sometimes talk about cryptids and the paranormal. The podcast is a narration style with a single host who sometimes can't keep all her comments and opinions to herself. We hope you will join the Grim community and be active on all our social media.

I love the tradition of Victorian ghost stories. Join me as I share one with you just in time for Christmas 2023.
The Steel Mirror is a mysterious tale of a family secret or curse that comes to pass. There is a mirror that predicts the future. A tradition is broken. And there is a skeptic that just might become a believer.
