Is spirit snot a symptom for the common cold? No? Either way, this week Alex & Christie talk the spooky but questionable happenings of the infamous Scottish medium, Helen Duncan. You won't want to miss out on the hot tea that her former maid spilled, or why a Lieutenant wasn't impressed at one of the seances. Need a distraction? We got you.
