Ep. 115 – What’s Science? Vol. 5 featuring “The Curse of the Highgate Vampire”

Christopher and Eric are both writers, and so it's often their duty to bring you the real story they see hidden behind TV's smoke and mirrors. Never has that been more true than with THE CURSE OF THE HIGHGATE VAMPIRE on Discovery +. As its stars seek out a supposed vampire inside a Victorian London cemetery, this overwrought and scattered ghost hunter's tale wants to dazzle you with night vision trickery and talk of ley lines. Eric would prefer to focus on the tale of two feuding egomaniacs who created a supernatural hysteria in 1960's London, and whose manipulative antics were all too human and more unsettling than any ghost story.
