IN THIS EPISODE: When hiring a ghost writer, you are paying someone to do some or even all of the writing of a book or novel for you \u2013 using your notes and outline \u2013 without taking any credit for themselves. But on the flip side, there are books written who give all credit to the ghost writers\u2026 because those ghost writers are literally authors who are ghosts. (Paranormal Prose: Books Written By Ghosts) *** When getting married, it\u2019s always best to tell your future spouse everything about yourself \u2013 no matter how sordid it might be. For if the news comes out after you\u2019ve taken your vows, not only might it lead to divorce \u2013 but it could also lead to murder! (A Double Murderer Murdered) *** And while we\u2019re on the subject of marriage device \u2013 it\u2019s also never a good idea to cheat on your spouse, not matter how powerful and influential you are in society. That too can lead to brutal murder, very possibly your own, as Harvey Burdell found out. (Bond Street Tragedy) *** There are numerous eerie tales of the supernatural involving ghost brides and haunted wedding dresses. It makes you wonder if you plan on saying \u201cI do\u201d, if you\u2019re not also welcoming a residual haunting once \u201ctil death do us part\u201d arrives. (Ghostly Bride of America) *** It happened in September of 2022 \u2013 hundreds of students all across the country of Mexico just fainted with no warning, while those around them were perfectly fine. Authorities still aren\u2019t sure they have found the explanation. (The Case Of Passed Out Pupils) *** Berkely Square is one of the most famous places in London, known for its beautiful garden and upscale living. Winston Churchill once lived here, as did Charles Rolls \u2013 cofounder of Rolls-Royce. The location has also been used for works of fiction, such as the television miniseries \u201cBerkeley Square\u201d, and even the home of fictional character Cathy Lane \u2013 Patty Lane\u2019s \u201cidentical cousin\u201d from \u201cThe Patty Duke Show\u201d on television. But Berkely Square also has a dark side \u2013 a building in the middle of the square, said to contain something not of this earth. (The Indescribable Beast of Berkely Square) *** But first\u2026 look out men, if you are approached by a beautiful woman seemingly out of nowhere \u2013 remember the saying: \u201cif it\u2019s too good to be true, it probably is.\u201d She may be less interested in your looks or money \u2013 and more interested in whats on your insides. Literally. We begin there! (Kidney Crooks)
