Description
Every house is haunted. In each episode of Family Ghosts, we investigate the true story behind a mysterious figure whose legend has followed a family for generations. Grandmothers who were secretly jewel smugglers, uncles who led double lives, siblings who vanished without a trace, and other ghostly characters who cast shadows over our lives in ways that might not be immediately obvious. We are all formed in part by our familial collections of secrets, intrigues, and myths. By engaging with each others’ legends, perhaps we can see each others’ realities more clearly. Hosted by Moth Grand Slam winner Sam Dingman, whose stories have been featured on NPR, Risk!, TBTL, and The Moth Radio Hour.

Ohh, I cried with Posy. It must be so painful for her to remember her mum. So many conflicting emotions. Love to you Posy, and your sister.
This and Mysterious Radio are the only podcasts I’ll ever need! Thank You!
I met Frank once, talked on the phone with him a couple of times. He was a nice, quiet unassuming man. He stopped by my office to pick up something, I knew he was stopping by but I still jumped a little when I saw him. He looked just like his father. I said "hi Mr Sinatra", he responded call me Frank, Mr Sinatra was my Grandfather". ( Or did he say dad? It was a good 15 years ago...)
this episode made me cry i am so glad you got your relationship with your dad back thats so amazing and I totally understand thoes feelings
this is just the best! i would love to hear her tell more stories ❤️
Coincidentally, I've between watching the entire Homicide series over the last few months and recently saw the episode inspired by Eddy Crane's murder.
I loved Six Feet Under!! Can't wait to revisit it.
Beautiful, just beautiful! I find my self still sitting in the grocery store parking lot in able to leave because of how moved I am by this story

I just found this podcast and this was literally the best story telling I have heard in a very long time! She was fierce!
I didn't care much for this episode either. It was difficult to follow, disjointed and boring. This is usually a good podcast so I'll chalk it up as a one off.
I live this podcast but this was the most boring episode ever.
