The Murder of Durable Mike Malloy
Greetings, My Dear... Lone... Guest, I thought I'd have you in for tea on this beautiful, early fall evening... to discuss... MURDER. But, not just any murder... a slow, plotting, gentle murder... at least at first. The clueless victim didn't even realize he was being murdered, so that's better, right? We think so. Please, make yourself comfortable alone here with me and... enjoy your treats and tea. And everything... will be just fine... eventually. Love, Miranda
ps. wear gloves if you have them... for... reasons. Thank you for visiting and... I'm sorry

The Victorian Obsession with Shrunken Heads
My very dear guest, we have a rather unique and meaningful story as tonight's offering here in The Reading Room. It will undoubtedly pique your morbid interest, as the subject is "The Victorian Obsession with Shrunken Heads" But more than this, I believe it will touch, or even awaken, something with in you that will cause you to think differently about this dire subject- and the two groups of people and the victims of the process whom the story is about. It's my honor to share their story with you. Please make yourself at home to listen. Sincerely, Miranda Merrick

Midnight Library is everything!!!
I love listening to the dark lady Miranda tell us about all of the interesting books she possesses on her paranormal bookshelves. Waiting for the new season has been like sitting on pins and needles.

More please! Love the nuances, the personalities, and the stories. Thank you!
Magnificent
I love to listen to podcasts while I do things like draw, knit, and garden. This was the first podcast that I ever chose to sponsor on Patreon. It’s creative and you can feel the passion of the writer for what she’s creating.
