About this episode

Welcome to Gaslight Ghost Stories and Victorian Murders. In tonight's tale we remember a harder time, when food was quite scarce, staying warm was expensive, and a good future was hard to come by. In the 19th century, millions of young men left farms and set off to cities, desperate to find paying work and a way to feed a family. A good many didn't survive. And yet, as this story illustrates, evil people exist in all times, and they can make a hard economic era even worse. Is there any light in this kind of darkness? In this story we find out together.
