Genevieve’s book, ⁠⁠⁠⁠Where to Begin – Eclectic Witchcraft for Beginners

This is the first episode of The Death of Edgar Allan Poe.
You can find all episodes on⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠, Amazon Music, and ad-free on Patreon.⁠⁠⁠
This is a chilling five-part narrative podcast, written and narrated by My Victorian Nightmare’s Genevieve Manion and starring multiple award winning voice actor, MacLeod Andrews. The series follows Poe through his turbulent life and career as he is relentlessly haunted by the spirits of the dead—victims who demand that he write their stories.

In this episode, Genevieve will share the history of witch hunting in England, and the murder case of a man in Victorian England suspected of witchcraft. The disturbing murder of Old Dummy in 1863.

In this episode, Genevieve will discuss the facts of the Lizzie Borden axe murder case — what we know to be true, what the Netflix series Monster got wrong, what it got right, and exactly why this particular axe murder case, versus so many others, caught fire when it did.
