Was Helen Duncan really a witch — or just a woman in the wrong place at the wrong séance?This week, Cheryl Hole and Nikki Druce uncover the wild true story of Helen Duncan, the spiritualist medium who became the last person imprisoned under Britain's Witchcraft Act of 1735.As bombs fell over wartime Britain, Helen's séances brought messages from beyond — including secrets the government didn't want getting out. But when her prophecies hit too close to home, she found herself accused of witchcraft, espionage, and spreading fear during the war.Join Cheryl and Nikki as they explore the fascinating world of spiritualism, paranoia, and power, asking: was Helen Duncan a con artist, a clairvoyant, or a casualty of mass hysteria?

In this episode of Talking Tudors, Natalie Grueninger talks with Leigh Wakefield about the infamous Pendle Witch Trials of 1612 and their legacy. They explore the rival families at the centre of the accusations, the role of witness testimony—especially that of children—the trial records by Thomas Potts, and the later 1634 case that questioned earlier verdicts. The conversation also considers how sources were shaped by contemporary agendas, what the evidence can and cannot tell us, and why Pendle remains a powerful part of local heritage and modern interest in witchcraft history.

When darkness falls and the veil thins, old magic stirs. In this episode of Walking in the Shadows the Cult Edition, we uncover the forgotten bond between witches and Halloween — a link born from the ancient fires of Samhain, where spirits crossed over and power was both feared and worshipped. From forbidden rituals to the women who defied persecution, this is the real story behind the night of the witch. Step into the shadows with us… if you dare.〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰

Text usLeon Cowles, a Portland resident, recounts a hike through Forest Park that turns from ordinary to quietly menacing. At the Witches House—an infamous local gathering spot—he finds signs of recent occult activity: arranged offerings, scorched earth, and symbols carved into bark. The discovery unsettles him, but it's what comes later that tightens the knot: while moving through the trees he becomes aware of something large moving just out of sight, circling him without revealing itself. The story hangs on atmosphere and escalating dread—the ordinary sounds of the trail become threatening, landmarks feel wrong, and the presence in the woods never fully appears, leaving a sustained sense of being watched and narrowly unmoored.Credits: Produced by Mickie Eberz. Narration by Spring Heeled Jack (Anthony Landis). Story/first-person account by Leon Cowles.All original music written and performed by Empress.Closing track: Pouring Down on You by Empress.Support the showDemented Darkness https://open.spotify.com/show/2ausD083OiTmVycCKpapQ8Dark Side of the Nerd https://open.spotify.com/show/6cwN3N3iifSVbddNRsXRTuFoxhound43 https://rumble.com/user/Foxhound43

===== MDJ Script/ Top Stories for October 17th Publish Date:  October 17th    Commercial: From the BG AD Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Friday, October 17th and Happy Birthday to Alan Jackson I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal Cobb County Sheriff's Office welcomes newest GED graduates ACT scores increase in Cobb, dip in Marietta KSU student arrested after protesting Charlie Kirk memorial Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on grass fed beef All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: Ingles Markets 10 STORY 1: Cobb County Sheriff's Office welcomes newest GED graduates The Cobb County Sheriff’s Office hosted its third GED graduation of the year on Oct. 8, right inside the Adult Detention Center. Seven detainees walked away with diplomas in hand—proof that change is possible, even behind bars. Since the program launched in March 2024, over 30 detainees have earned their GEDs. The ceremony was heartfelt, with speeches from Chief Deputy Rhonda Anderson, Col. Michael Williams, and Dr. Kim Kranzlin of Cobb Adult Education. The program isn’t easy—four subjects, a minimum score of 145, and 40+ hours of study. But for these seven, it’s a step toward something better. STORY 2: ACT scores increase in Cobb, dip in Marietta  ACT scores are in, and Cobb County is celebrating its highest average in four years, while Marietta High saw a slight dip. Cobb’s average jumped to 23.7 (up 0.9 points), while Marietta landed at 22.2 (down 0.5). Both still outpaced state (21.4) and national (19.4) averages. Wheeler High led Cobb with a stellar 28.5 average, even climbing 2.5 points from last year. Meanwhile, Marietta students continued to outperform state and national peers in every subject, despite the slight drop. “Success takes time,” said Marietta Superintendent Grant Rivera. “Hard work and curiosity drive our students forward.” Georgia students, for the ninth year, beat the national average. STORY 3: KSU student arrested after protesting Charlie Kirk memorial  A protest at Kennesaw State University’s memorial for conservative activist Charlie Kirk ended in chaos Tuesday night, with one student, Luca Compiani, 18, arrested on charges of battery and obstruction. According to police, Compiani “intentionally” bumped into KSU Police Capt. Timothy Murphy in a “provoking manner” and fled when confronted. Protesters, however, claim the situation was escalated unnecessarily, calling the arrest “a gross abuse of authority.” The memorial, hosted by Young Americans for Liberty, drew both supporters and protesters. Some shouted chants, others threw ketchup at a flag. Despite the tension, organizers said the event achieved its goal: promoting free speech—even amid dissent. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: Ingles Markets 10 STORY 4: 1,100+ voters cast ballots on Day 1 of early voting  Nearly 1,200 Cobb County voters turned out Monday for the first day of early voting, with Marietta leading the charge. Of the 1,193 ballots cast, 481 came from the Cobb Elections Main Office, while Mableton saw 221 voters at the South Cobb Community Center. Michael D’Itri, acting director of Cobb Elections, said turnout usually starts strong, dips mid-period, then surges in the final days. For Marietta voter Chris Danos, 28, the mayoral race is top of mind. “We need better transportation options,” he said. Meanwhile, Dan and Vicki Rupnow, who moved from Atlanta, love Marietta’s walkability and lighter traffic. “It’s perfect for us,” they said. STORY 5: OUT AND ABOUT: 5 things to do this weekend in Cobb County — Oct. 17 - 19 Marietta HarvestFest Marietta Square is the place to be this Saturday for HarvestFest—think scarecrows, costumes, games, and all the fall vibes. From 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., you can wander Glover Park, shop the craft show, or dive into a pie-eating contest (messy, but worth it).

Witches, this Scorpio season is something special. With a fortifying water trine holding our cosmic wishes in sacred space, we have the opportunity to attune to our deepest desires and work towards actualizing them. It's time for deep work. It's time to center the SOUL. The first two weeks of Scorpio Season (from October 22nd through November 2nd) we are working our way towards Mercury Retrograde, and navigating a series of trines to Saturn in Pisces and Jupiter in Cancer. Themes of recalibrating towards care, illuminating power dynamics, and dramatic emotional maturation all come together within the healing container of a Water sign trine. May the cosmic currents support our collective growth!❤️‍

Many of you will already know that I am a huge fan of The Chronicles of Narnia. Today, I want to introduce my fellow Narnia lovers to a new book that jumped right off the shelf as soon as I saw it. Giant is a middle-grade novel by debut author Judith McQuoid where we meet Davy, a fictional working class boy from East Belfast, Ireland who is sent to work in the wealthy Lewis household in 1908. There, he forges a friendship with Jacks–as C.S. Lewis was known to his friends and family–over books, stories, and building worlds of imagination and adventure.Giant is a must-read for Narnia fans that adds a whole new depth of experience to C.S. Lewis's world and will help you read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe in a fresh way. And today, I'm chatting with the author about what inspired her to write the book, how much of the story is fictionalized, and how the process of writing the book shaped her identity. And you're going to love her Irish accent! In this episode, you'll hear: The way her dad's love of Narnia and Lewis's Belfast heritage inspired Judith to write this story How Judith started with a “skeleton” draft and added layers of detail and depth with revisionsThe faith that carried Judith through the ups and downs of creating GiantLearn more about Sarah Mackenzie:Read-Aloud RevivalWaxwing BooksSubscribe to the NewsletterFind the rest of the show notes at: readaloudrevival.com/judith-mcquoid Order Flora and the Jazzers by Astrid Sheckels!

Songs have always carried stories of love, loss, rebellion and hope. Professor Suzannah Lipscomb is joined by author Amy Jeffs, illustrator Gwen Burns and composer Natalie Brice to explore the magical, mythical, and mysterious world of traditional ballads from the Early Modern period.Together, they uncover how centuries-old songs captured human experience, challenged authority and gave voice to universal themes of love, death, female agency, and survival.

SHOW NOTES: https://jewishbooks.blogspot.com/2025/10/october-throwback-laurel-snyder-redux.html  TRANSCRIPT: https://otter.ai/u/eP9KxOhurmOFV6jIhbWPC5jYX8Y?utm_source=copy_url  Continuing the celebration of my 20th year of podcasting, I've got a 2013 archival episode for you with author Laurel Snyder, who at that time was best known for her iconoclastic picture book, Baxter The Pig Who Wanted to Be Kosher. Amazingly, Laurel says that The Book of Life podcast actually impacted her writing! In a 2017 blog article she credited our first podcast conversation as a turning point in her career. She said “Heidi asked me, reasonably, what made my book Jewish, and I found I didn't have an answer for her…. She could not possibly have known, when she asked me that question a decade ago, what journey she was sending me on. The power of the right question is a mighty thing.” Laurel has gone on to win the 2014 Sydney Taylor Book Award gold medal for her Exodus picture book The Longest Night, and a 2024 bronze for a middle grade fantasy, The Witch of Woodland. This year she's published The Book of Candles: Eight Poems for Hanukkah.

Die Liste mit Umschreibungen für Frauen, die sie degradieren und in Schubladen stecken, war schon immer lang: Die griechische Göttin, die Unheil bringt. Eva, die den verbotenen Apfel isst. Die Bäuerin, deren Feld bessere Ernte bringt als das, ihres Nachbarn – eine Hexe? Die Wrestlerin, die zu stark ist für eine Frau. Sex-positive Frauen, die zu frivol sind. Mommy-Bloggerinen, die zu viel Geld mit Werbeprodukten verdienen.Was eint sie alle? Wo liegen die Wurzeln des Patriarchats? Rebekka Endler hat in ihrem neuen Sachbuch all diese Geschichten vereint und mit popkulturellen Bezügen angereichert. Im Gespräch mit Özge geht sie den Ursprüngen patriarchaler Mythen auf den Grund, erklärt, warum Faschismus Normalität braucht und erzählt von der Causa Thilo Mischke.Danke an alle, die den Lila Podcast unterstützenHelft uns, damit unsere Arbeit fair bezahlt werden kann!

The Weird Witch of the Willow-Herb is a two part story. In the first part we are going to meet the witch who lives in a pink cottage on the top of a hill. She is happy and friendly and helps everyone she can. The Witch has placed many spells near the bottom of her hill so that people do not need to climb to the top to get help and she can have some peace and quiet. One day Princess Winsome shows up and the Witch tells her exactly how she can help her and sends her to an enchanted forest. Then along comes a boy looking for something to do to show the others that he is brave. What could the witch have in mind for him?  ✔️ Perfect for ages 5+ Sleep Tight!, Sheryl & Clark ❤️

This is an episode of paranoia, jealousy, desperation, and self-fulfilling-God-given-prophecy. This is the story of King Saul and the Witch of Endor.

The National Retail Federation found that Americans will spend 4-billion dollars on candy in 2025, with average Halloween budgets for candy alone at about $200. Much of this candy is now in the full-size version too. And a recent Halloween survey also found that most of that candy is consumed before children even get a chance to trick or treat. When a people ignore health, nature, and God's creation it is wicked enough, but when that same culture lives in such conditions with no impulse control and in the name of God then it is evil and blasphemous. However, it is possible to have your soul cake and eat it too. *The is the FREE archive, which includes advertisements.

The year is 1692. In a small, snowbound Puritan settlement on the edge of the Massachusetts wilderness, two young girls begin convulsing, screaming, and claiming to see dark spirits. Within weeks, their strange afflictions ignite the most infamous witch hunt in American history. In this first chapter of The Salem Witch Trials, the boys unravel the eerie beginnings of the hysteria that consumed Salem Village.It starts inside Reverend Samuel Parris's home, where his daughter Betty and niece Abigail writhe and shriek as neighbors whisper that the Devil himself has entered the village. When a local folk remedy—a “witch cake” baked with the girls' urine—is fed to a dog in secret, it backfires spectacularly, pointing suspicion toward Parris's enslaved servant, Tituba. Dragged before magistrates, Tituba confesses under pressure and spins a vivid tale of the Devil's book, spectral animals, and a coven hidden among them. Her confession doesn't calm the town—it detonates it.From there, the accusations multiply. Respectable churchgoers like Martha Corey and beloved grandmother Rebecca Nurse are suddenly named as witches. Even a four-year-old child is chained in irons. Villagers who once shared pews now turn on each other in panic. By spring, fear and superstition rule Salem.The boys dive deep into the dark psychology of the era—how religious zeal, personal grudges, and brutal living conditions created the perfect storm for mass hysteria. They explore the bizarre early investigations, the use of “spectral evidence,” and the tragic logic that if a witch could look innocent, it was only because the Devil made her so.This episode sets the stage for the horrifying trials to come—the hangings, the confessions, and the infamous pressing of Giles Corey. But before the gallows rise, Part One reveals how one cold New England winter and a few terrified children tore a community apart.Part Two will take listeners to the courtroom and the gallows, exposing the gruesome outcomes—and the haunting question that still lingers: what truly possessed Salem in 1692?www.patreon.com/theconspiracypodcast

The Halloweenies keep their favorite October tradition going! Last year, Michael Roffman and Dan Caffrey ventured to the Haddonfield Public Library to read Dennis Etchison/Jack Martin's 1981 novelization for Halloween II.
