Episode 16: Rattling Bones and Poltergeists - the Good, the Bad and the Ugly of Ghost stories
This week the dragons delve into the dark subconscious of the human mind in an examination of where ghost stories come from, why they inspire us, what makes a good ghost story and jut why do people go towards the sinister noise instead of running away from it?
On the slab this week M R James, Edgar Allan Poe, Susan Hill - The Woman in Black, in all it's incarnations - as well as spooky films such as The Blair Witch Project, Crimson Peak, The Sixth Sense and Poltergeist. Join SFF writers M.E.Vaughan and J.A.Ironside as they dip a claw into the dark waters of the paranormal.
