Episode 106. Hellfire Caves and Chappaquiddick Part Two

from Oy with the Terror Podcast · host Oy with the Terror Podcast

We are back! In this week's episode, Sandra talks about the famous Hellfire Caves also known as the West Wycombe Caves located in High Wycombe in England. It is believed that the caves were first excavated between 1748 and 1752 and have been a tourist attraction since the reopening in 1951. Today the caves are most known for possibly hosting members of the Hellfire Club. Some members include John Wilkes, John Montagu the 4th Earl of Sandwich and possibly even Benjamin Franklin. Today when people visit the caves they may also encounter several spirits. Then Danielle covers part two of the Chappaquiddick incident, revealing more details about Mary Jo Kopechne's background and Ted Kennedy's sketchy reasoning. Will further details of this confirmed cover-up ever come to light?
