Macabre London

2021 was quite the year of weird news so I figured what would be fun is if we went back of the year, month by month before the year is through to regale some of the stranger stories from the year.Now even though 2021 has felt fairly uneventful to the majority of us who spent a large time of it in our sweatpants at home, plenty of strange things happened throughout the year and so I thought it might be nice to spend a little time together taking a look at those strange, horrendous and odd occurrences from the year past.As there are quite a few strange stories, I'll be spreading this out over a few episodes before the end of 2021 like a cathartic cleansing ritual, so if you’re new here, make sure you subscribe so you don’t miss out when the next one is released.Today's stories feature stories from January.The US governments ufo report.Jeanne Pouchain - the dead alive French woman.&A spider infestation in a home in Sydney.So grab yourself a beverage and a suitably festive snack and let's look back on the bin fire that was 2021.Thanks so much for watching!If you are new here, you may not know that Macabre London is a fortnightly podcast and YouTube show that delves into Londons haunted and gruesome history alongside discovering Macabre mini Mysteries from all over the world!

You can watch this episode here: https://youtu.be/8TkL_p03UqIOn a dull and overcast morning on Tuesday the 28th of june 1887, a curious situation occured at a lodging house in the east end of London. The body of a young woman was found on her bed in her lodging house. Her skin was quickly eroding from her face and arms. What had happened to this woman and why was her skin disintegrating. Furthermore, was the person responsible still nearby, perhaps peering out from under the bed watching the chaos unfold. And subsequently, what would this murder have to do with the murders of 5 women in the East end by Jack the Ripper which began just a year later. Today on Macabre London, we uncover the murder of Miriam Angel.Thanks so much for watching!

For most people it’s generally believed that your soul leaves your body when you die and that if you believe in reincarnation, that’s the point when a new life may begin.But what if one night you went to sleep and woke up the next day in the same body but with an entirely new soul, a new personality and even a new name, leaving the old you behind and picked up where you’d left off in your old life, but with a new person inhabiting your meat suit!Sounds absurd doesn’t it but this strange phenomena happens to more people than you’d think and can apparently happen at any time, to anyone, you may already be a walk-in and not realise!Today on Macabre Mini Mysteries, we take a look at the fascinating world of walk In’s.-------------------Thanks so much for watching!If you are new here, you may not know that Macabre London is a fortnightly podcast and YouTube show that delves into Londons haunted and gruesome history alongside discovering Macabre mini Mysteries from all over the world!

https://youtu.be/AqfEzXini9oLouis Wain was one of the most popular artists of the Edwardian era. If you headed back in time and found yourself in an Edwardian drawing room, you’d more than likely be drawn to a print upon the wall.These prints which adorned many abodes were regarded for their whimsical portrayal of cats but behind the frivolous playful kittens hid a dark secret.Today on Macabre London, we uncover the story of Louis Wain, the mad cat man.-------------PATREONIf you like the podcast and YouTube shows and would like them to continue then please support us on Patreon.

A little rainstorm in the middle of the night would more than likely go unnoticed by the average joe, fast asleep in their beds.One such overnight rainstorm in a little town in Washington should’ve been nothing to worry about but when residents awoke the following morning, they were treated to something unexplainable, a large amount of gelatinous blobs all over the town.Join me as we travel down the rabbit hole and explore the Macabre Mini Mystery of the Oakville blobs.If you are new here, you may not know that Macabre London is a fortnightly podcast and YouTube show that delves into Londons haunted and gruesome history alongside discovering Macabre mini Mysteries from all over the world!

The murder of Emily Armstrong was in danger of being lost as a story. Historical true crime is such a good learning tool for attitudes of the past and today, we learn about not one, not two but THREE unsolved murders in the same area of London which may have just had a little to do with each other, particularly when it came to how the victims were treated.---------------------------------PATREON——————————-please support us on Patreon. www.patreon.com/macabrelondonThank you to our executive producer patrons - Barry, Sam, Sarah, Kate, Veronica & MaryAnd to all of our wonderful $5 tier patrons...AlexisAmyAshleyAndrewBethanDeniseHelenJamesJenniferMelanieMickeyRachelRenSSabrinaTseanbheanWendyAnd thanks to all other patrons too!ONE OFF DONATIONS————————————————support the show via the PayPal link here:paypal.me/macabrelondonAMAZON WISHLIST———————————————please visit my Amazon wish list.http://amzn.eu/dJxEf1V​​​​​​SOCIAL MEDIA---------------------------------------------Insta: @macabrelondonpodcastTwitter: @macabrelondonFacebook: @macabrelondonEmail: macabrelondon@hotmail.comWebsite: www.macabrelondon.comSourcesDundee Evening Telegraph - Friday 15 April 1949Yorkshire Post and Leeds Intelligencer - Saturday 16 April 1949Daily Mirror - Saturday 16 April 1949Coventry Evening Telegraph - Saturday 16 April 1949Aberdeen Press and Journal - Saturday 16 April 1949Weekly Dispatch (London) - Sunday 17 April 1949Nottingham Journal - Tuesday 19 April 1949The Scotsman - Tuesday 19 April 1949Murder Houses of London - Jan Bondesonhttps://murderpedia.org/male.A/a/alle...http://www.unsolved-murders.co.uk/mur...
