Host Tristan Redman is a seasoned journalist who doesn’t believe in ghosts. But weird things happened in the bedroom he lived in as a teenager. When he discovers years later that subsequent occupants of the same house have been visited by the ghost of a faceless woman, he’s curious. Because it just so happens that Tristan’s childhood home is right next door to the house where his wife’s great grandmother, Naomi Dancy, was murdered in 1937 – killed by two gunshots to the face. Could there be a connection between the ghost and the murder? Tristan decides to investigate and soon finds himself going where no son-in-law should go, deep into his wife’s family history, asking questions no one wants answered.‘ Best Documentary Podcast’ Ambies 2024 award-winner and ‘Best True Crime’ British Podcast Awards 2024 nominee, Ghost Story, is now also an Apple Podcasts ‘Series Essential’. In celebration of this accolade, Wondery has made Ghost Story available ad-free for a limited time only on Apple Podcasts.

I’ve listened to many podcasts and this is by far the best. You are taken on a journey with this family to try to understand what happened in this spooky mystery. Please do some more podcasts 🙌🏼
Brilliant story and whodunnit

SPOILERS This was an absolutely amazing story that is scarcely believable at times…and as we learn, lots of the family story really is too good to be true. We’ll never know who was guilty of the main crime in this podcast but maybe there are other guilty parties in this saga as well. Maybe Tristan is guilty of wanting Fayther to have done it. Fayther is absolutely guilty of at least embellishing many of his life stories (but how many of us can say we’ve never done similar, although maybe not to this extreme?) But maybe more than anything, the Dancey family are guilty. Guilty of being so wrapped up in Fayther’s tall tales that they allowed a truly remarkable woman to be forgotten. And maybe that was the real point of this podcast after all. Not to uncover the fabrications in the stories of Fayther or to try to absolve Morris…or even to commune with ghosts…but instead to revive the memory and story of Naomi.
OBVIOUS TO ME!

I must point out that I am no detective but Am I the only one that’s screaming the obvious point! In my opinion, Father shot his wife, chased the brother into the toilet where he had locked himself in, he kicked the door in and after a struggle (hence the 2 small cuts) he cuts his throat! —- Father is a clear psychopath and 100% a narcissist!
Enjoyable family saga

This was a great podcast to listen to. Lots of interesting characters and obviously well researched and presented. I do hope there is a ‘faceless woman’ sequel.
