Nearly Departed
by Katy Wiggins
A ghost story anthology sewn together with a very cozy thread. Every episode contains a ghost story from someone in a different time and place. A dorm in 2014, a French chateau in 1916, a video store in 1998. Each story is a totally different vibe, but they're all united by paranormal occurrences. Katy hopes to create a space where the veil is thin all year round, here to revisit whenever you're in need of a safe harbor to contemplate the living and the dead and the terrors in-between. While it may look cute and whimsical, these stories may be very scary and/or disturbing and are not intended for kids. For fans of history, melancholy, pumpkin pie, dusty mansions, flirting with terror, atmosphere, coziness, plastic skeletons, and real ones too. Katy is a writer and improviser in Austin, TX and co host of popular podcast Scary Stories from Camp Roanoke, which has over 40,000 listeners. Katy adores history, and ghost stories are one of the ways the past echoes into th
