A Message for Julia by R A Sunter
Episode description
Jean-Pierre Ducharme and Ms. Esmeralda Spinoza are experts in the delicate architecture of the séance.
Inside the stillness of Julia Silverman’s game room, they prepare to reach across the divide for a daughter lost four months prior. It is a space of flickering candles, soft whispers, and the heavy weight of a mother’s grief.
But as the circle joins hands, the atmosphere begins to curdle. The familiar rituals start to feel unpredictable, and a coldness settles that no draft can explain.
They have spent years navigating the boundaries of the unknown, but tonight, those boundaries are no longer holding.
"A Message for Julia" was first broadcast on The Classic Ghost Stories Podcast in January 2025.
