13 O’Clock Episode 271 LIVE: The Mercy Brown Vampire Incident & the Bridget Cleary Fairy Murder

/ Jenny Ashford / Leave a comment

It’s Halloween week, 13 O’Clockers, so we’ve got two creepy historical incidents to chill your blood with! First, we’ll be discussing the curious case of Mercy Brown, sometimes known as the Last Vampire in New England, who was exhumed in the late 19th century because the townsfolk believed she was undead and feeding on her family members. Then we’ll discuss the bizarre Irish murder of Bridget Cleary, whose husband killed her in a horrific manner because he seemed to genuinely believe she was not actually his wife, but had been replaced by a fairy changeling. Turn down the lights, curl up with a blanket and your beverage of choice, and spend some spooky time with Tom and Jenny on a live pre-Halloween hootenanny on episode 271.

13 O’Clock Episode 53 – Elizabeth Bathory: The Blood Countess

/ Jenny Ashford / Leave a comment

You know how Count Dracula is usually said to be partially based on Vlad the Impaler? Well, most scholars think that the legendary literary bloodsucker was also based on someone who was arguably even scarier than that: Elizabeth Bathory. The Hungarian countess has become infamous for the horrific torture and murder of anywhere between 35 and 650 young women, and in later years, stories arose that she bathed in virgin blood to retain her youth. Countess Bathory, as a matter of fact, is credited by no less an authority than the Guinness Book of World Records for being the world’s most prolific female serial killer. On this episode of 13 O’Clock, Tom and Jenny delve into the terrifying and crimson-drenched world of the Blood Countess, trying to sort the truth from the myth. Exsanguinate the nearest servants and relax in a tub full of gore (don’t really do that), it’s time for episode 53.

13 O’Clock Episode 51 – Haitian Voodoo and Zombies

/ Jenny Ashford / Leave a comment

Zombies are pretty ubiquitous in pop culture, what with all your Walking Deads and your George Romeros and what not. But the origins of the zombie, of course, lie in the voodoo practices of Haiti, and are less about flesh-eating ghouls than about using death-mimicking drugs to enslave your enemies. On this episode, Tom and Jenny explore the curious world of the Haitian zombies, including the famous case of real-life zombie Clairvius Narcisse, the study of the supposed “zombie powder” undertaken by anthropologist Wade Davis, and various other aspects of the zombification process as well as mythology surrounding the procedure and various digressions about zombie movies and the differences between zombies and vampires. Call the bokor to resurrect you from your grave, because it’s time for episode 51.
