S01 Episode 4 Extra: The Victorian Ghostbusters
Richard MacLean Smith

For last week's episode, Where Darkness Plays, we touched briefly on the supernatural theories of the eminent Sir William Barrett.

In 1882 Sir William had been a founding member of a fascinating collective known as the Society for Psychical Research, a group considered by many to be the original Ghostbusters.

Research, writing, music and production by Richard MacLean Smith.
