  • Spirits Presents... Conversations with Ghosts
    Oct 31 2025

    On this episode, we’re giving the feed over to a podcast we think you’ll really love - Conversations with Ghosts. It’s the newest audio drama from the creators of Archive 81, The Deep Vault, and Generation Crossing, and it’s all about loss, history, and the things we leave behind. Conversations with Ghosts follows mausoleum attendant Mal Fleming as he tries to convince the spirits of Grey Briar Cemetery to pass on. In each episode, Mal sits down with a new ghost to build a portrait of their life, their death, and their afterlife... all to help them release whatever still ties their soul to this reality.


    This episode, “Faded Spirit,” involves Mal Fleming trying to help a ghost who’s been at the cemetery so long they’ve forgotten who they even were to begin with.
