Whispers of Spitalfields - London's Haunted Trilogy25 Jun1 h 03 min

Step into the haunted heart of London’s East End as we uncover the ghostly legends woven into the streets of Spitalfields. In this chilling, but interesting episode, Trina and Stephanie guide you through three eerie tales rooted in archival shadows and centuries old mysteries:

The silent seamstress who still stitches by candlelight

The vanishing lodger of Wilkes Street

The ghostly child who wanders Dorset Street

Along the way, we delve into the history of the Huguenots in London, what are garret rooms and why are they so often haunted, and how emotional energy imprints itself on old buildings through theories like the Stone Tape Theory.

If you're into stories of London ghosts, historical hauntings, and strange echoes of the past that refuse to fade away, then this episode is your gateway into the eerie events around Spitalfields’ in London.
