Welcome to the penultimate episode of Matcha, Masala, & Murder season 2! In honor of International Paranormal Day, Rhia takes us on a bone-chilling journey into the heart of London's dark past, unraveling the harrowing tale of the Ghost of Hammersmith and the consequential case of Francis Smith. In 1804, terror gripped the city as whispers of a ghost haunting Hammersmith's streets spread like wildfire. Amidst the hysteria, Francis Smith, an excise officer, made a fateful decision to confront the apparition, forever altering the course of legal history. Join us as we explore how Smith's actions redefined perceptions of intent in murder cases in the UK. So, brew yourself a comforting cuppa and brace yourself for a journey into the eerie unknown.
