Ghosts of Christmas Door 14 - A Green Christmas Ghost

Welcome to Hypnogoria, Britian's longest running horror podcast! 

Coming to you from the Great Library of Dreams, Mr Jim Moon invites you to take a comfy armchair by the fireside to talk of all things weird and wonderful.   

Here we discuss strange cinema and spooky television, explore weird fiction and delve into the mysteries of folklore. Plus we also regularly gather by the fireside to hear readings of some classic tales of the strange and the macabre.
