[BONUS] Seasons bleedings! For this year's Christmas Special, we have Mark Gatiss's adaptation of M.R James' famous story, Count Magnus, as part of the BBC's annual A Ghost Story at Christmas tradition.
In this spooky tale, an English writer (Jason Watkins) visits Sweden and becomes intrigued by a mausoleum containing a tomb covered in heavy chains...
PLUS - we have some hilariously awful vampire jokes and a special quiz with our guest under the spotlight! And making another return for this festive edition of the podcast is university lecturer, author, and vampire expert Dr Sorcha Ní Fhlainn....
Hosts: Hugh McStay & Dan Owen
Guest: Dr Sorcha Ní Fhlainn
Editor: Hugh McStay
"Are you awake, Count Magnus? Are you asleep, Count Magnus?"
Why not buy Sorcha's books for Christmas? Postmodern Vampires and Visions of the Vampire: Two Centuries of Immortal Tales.
