Seances, Spirit and the Victorian Mind

Trina and Stéphanie take you deep into the shadowy world of Victorian ghost stories, uncovering how these tales reflected the era’s anxieties, scientific breakthroughs, and spiritual obsessions. From séances to spirit photography, from grief to the psychology of fear, this episode blends history, culture, and personal storytelling in true Freakin’ Shack fashion. Listeners are invited to share their own eerie encounters and family ghost lore — because storytelling is always better when the whole Shack joins in.
