Episode description

Happy Halloween boos & ghouls! 👻

We are thrilled to throw on our costumes and rip the shiny wrapper off on our spooktacular October series, featuring deep dives on specific spooky topics related to the history of All Hallows’ Eve! 🎃

In Part 4 of this month-long series, Felicia explores the history of séances and the Fox sisters - three sisters from Rochester, New York who conducted séances during the 19th century. They were only teenagers when they began "communicating with spirits," but they grew to become world famous mediums, performing séances for hundreds of people throughout their lifetimes.  Listen to learn more about these iconic sinister sisters and how they were pivotal to the creation of Spiritualism. 

We hope you enjoy these hair-raising Halloween episodes in October! Stay tuned for more tricks & treats and in the meantime: reach out to us on Instagram at @sinistersisterspodcast if you have more topic ideas for us to cover!
