In 1803, a small London neighborhood was paralyzed with fear. Whispers of a glowing, violent ghost haunting the Hammersmith graveyard spread like wildfire. Locals believed something otherworldly was lurking in the fog… until one man pulled the trigger on what he thought was a spirit. But it wasn’t a ghost. It was a man. A bricklayer. And his death sparked one of the strangest murder trials in British history. Was it a prank gone wrong? A case of mass hysteria? Or did something truly supernatural drift through the streets that winter? In this episode, we uncover the eerie true story of the Hammersmith Ghost—where folklore, fear, and fatal consequences collided in the most chilling way.
