Which Witch is a Witch (Pollok Witches & Mary McLoughlin)

Which Witch is a Witch (Pollok Witches & Mary McLoughlin)

Author: Chris and Hannah July 16, 2021 Duration: 1:12:52

This little slice of heaven is episode 37! Out of the all villainous horror movie killers would you want to eternally steer clear of in life? This is one of life's tough questions that Hannah and Chris tackled on this day. 

Ding dong the witch is which witch? Hannah takes us back to the Pollock witches and the mysterious accuser; Janet Douglas. 

Then Chris takes us home with the freshly solved long-time cold case of Mary McLaughlin who was murdered in her flat where she lived alone. 


Glasgow’s atmospheric streets provide the perfect backdrop for A Wee Bit Gothic, where hosts Chris and Hannah explore the darker corners of culture and history. This isn't a scripted lecture; it's a conversation between two friends who’ve been drawn to the macabre and the melancholic since they were young. Each episode feels like pulling up a chair in a dimly lit pub, listening as they weave together topics that might seem disparate but are united by a gothic sensibility. You’ll hear them delve into infamous true crime cases, dissect the brooding themes of classic and contemporary literature, and share stories of haunted places and the architects who accidentally built them. The discussion might pivot to a film that captures a particular shade of gloom, all filtered through their personal perspectives as creatives living in a city that embodies its own gritty romance. The charm of this podcast lies in its authentic, meandering curiosity-Chris and Hannah aren’t presenting definitive guides, but rather sharing their own thoughts and reactions, making the eerie and the unsettling feel strangely welcoming. It’s for anyone who finds beauty in the shadowy, the historical, and the tragically human, all delivered with a distinctive Glaswegian warmth that contrasts beautifully with the dark subject matter.
