S01 Episode 1: Opening the Gate
Unexplained Podcast | Home
Since the dawn of communication we have shared stories about imaginary beings; entities such as demons, angels, monsters and fairies.
But what if they weren’t stories at all. What if these entities were real, existing right next to us, right now, walking invisibly among us?
What if all we needed to see them was some kind of gateway? What price might we pay for opening it?
Featuring the story of the mysterious death of occultist Netta Fornario.
Research, writing, music and production by Richard MacLean Smith.
Moina Mathers (acquaintance of Netta) c. 1925
