  • 35: John Dee - Angels, Demons and Wife Swapping in the British Empire

    19/11/2020 Duration: 41min

    It’s unlikely today that if you were to question a scientist about their research that they would cite magic as one of their avenues of study.To one scientific pioneer, magic was just a part of his arsenal of tools for questioning and understanding anything and everything. So much so that he even sought the advice of angels to aid him in his quest to understand how the universe worked, even delving into demonology.As a royal advisor and metaphysicist the world was an unending portal of unexplored possibility, but some things should be left undiscovered, especially when they lead you not only toward the path of spiritual enlightenment but also toward the occult, danger, madness and the very real threat of execution.This time on Macabre London, we uncover the story of John Dee and his associate Edward Kelley.---------------------------------------------------Patreon——————————-If you like the podcast and would like it to continue then please support us on Patreon.

    01/09/2020 Duration: 36min

    On the 7th of December 1811 in the docklands of London, a hideously violent quadruple murder occurred. The perpetrator was unknown and mystery surrounded the case particularly as the four victims had been killed in complete silence and with no apparent motive.People began to panic that the mysterious murderer may strike again and their fears weren’t unfounded when just 12 days later, another household was slain in a similar manner.With a violent criminal on the loose, it wouldn’t be long before someone had to pay for the crime but without an established police force and a distinct lack of evidence collected, would the right person end up in prison.This time on Macabre London, we uncover the mystery of the Ratcliffe Highway murders.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------presenters in this episode:MACABRE LONDON - NIKKI DRUCE www.macabrelondon.comwww.youtube.com/macabrelondonJEMMA MOORE https://jemmamoore.comThe Hobbycast https://shows.acast.com/the-hobbycast Film - HOST -
