In this episode, I bring you two older shows, both from 2015. The shows were a lot shorter back then. The first part is the tale of Elsie Wright, Frances Griffiths, and The Cottingley Fairies. These were photos two young girls took of fairies. The second part is the story of William H. Mumler who took pictures of the ghost of Abraham Lincoln and well as many dead American Civil War soldiers.
