Welcome to Mysteries to Die For.

I am TG Wolff and am here with Jack, my piano player and producer. This is a podcast where we combine storytelling with original music to put you in the heart of a mystery. All stories are structured to challenge you to beat the detective to the solution. These are arrangements, which means instead of word-for-word readings, you get a performance meant to be heard. Jack and I perform these live, front to back, no breaks, no fakes, no retakes.

This is Season 6, Things that Go Jack in the Night. This season contains truly imaginative mysteries around one of the most common words in the English language. From the brandy distilled from hard cider known as applejack to that nefarious one-eyed jack, to the animals, vegetables, fruits, tools, weapons, and slang, the way the word \\u201cjack\\u201d is used in the English language is truly unique, inventive, and too numerous for us to count. And yes, it is also the name of my piano player and producer.

For Episode 13, Jack Frost is the featured jack. This is Jack Frost\\u2019s Last Etching by TG Wolff

Welcome to our last show of Season 6 and of 2023. This had been a fun season with our authors delivering great takes on the word \\u201cJack.\\u201d You never know what you are going to get when you create a theme or a prompt. We thank you for being part of mysteries to die for and hope you enjoy this final jack story.

ABOUT Jack Frost

According to Wikipedia, Jack Frost has origins in Anglo-Saxon and Norse winter customs. The personification of winter in some places and autumn and winter in others, there are versions of Jack Frost found in Finnish, Swedish, and Russian folklore. Like many traditions born from folklore, there are as many differences as commonalities. In some, Jack is more monstrous, nipping fingers and toes in cold weather, and the more deadly danger of sleet, ice, and freezing cold. Beginning in the last 1800s, we started being depicted as more of a sprite-like character, sometimes mischievous, something sinister, sometimes heroic. Jack Frost was said to leave frosty, fern patterns on windows. He is sometimes depicted with a paint brush and bucket for painting leaves.
