To prove to their friends that they’ve visited the witch, Barnaby and Grimalkin tell them supernatural stories and spine-chilling tales. As Season One unfolds, the children find themselves trapped in a scary story of their own when faced with a supernatural threat. Will they be able to count on the witch to help them? Or does she have dangerous motivations of her own?Aimed at a middle grade/young adult audience and featuring classic tales such as The Hook Hand, The Vanishing Hitchhiker and Bloody Mary, this podcast balances laugh out loud humor with gasp out loud spookiness. It will have you and your children wondering: “Am I brave enough to be listening to this?" And "When does the next episode come out?”
