About this listen

In this haunting episode, Forrest is joined by Brenda, the captivating host of Horrifying History, to uncork the terrifying tale of the Great French Wine Blight—a 19th-century disaster that devastated vineyards, ruined fortunes, and almost brought wine culture in France to a tragic end. Brenda brings her signature storytelling style to this real-life horror, revealing how a microscopic invader crossed oceans and left centuries of viticulture in ruin. It’s historical, it’s horrifying, and yes—it has everything to do with wine.
