Here's an earlier Patreon episode!

In this episode, Kat shares a haunting tale centered around the tragic train wreck of the Hagenbeck Wallace Circus in 1918, which resulted in the deaths of many circus performers. The story unfolds in Woodlawn Cemetery, where the victims are buried, and explores the community's response, memorials, and the haunting presence that lingers in the cemetery. Kat reflects on the significance of the circus community and the annual memorial traditions that honor those who lost their lives, while also touching on the broader cultural implications of circus life and its legacy.
