Gef the Talking Mongoose
from The Paranoia Pair · host Anna and Jessica
Join us in this short but fun episode where we go back to the 1930's where a family claimed to be haunted by a talking mongoose named Gef. He sang, swore and loved to gossip. Neighbors were skeptical and newspapers had a field day. Was Gef a spirit? A hoax? Or maybe this was just a case of a family who shared the same delusion.. either way I'm on board.
