Although the Going Dark Theatre podcast has been on hiatus since May 2021 due to me writing my first two books about haunted history and folklore, the stories of the darker side of humanity throughout time will resume in this podcast beginning in April 2022. Thank you all for listening to these stories. There is much more to come soon.
