The Banshee

Holly Burk and Chelsea Burk-Betts Season 1 Episode 5

Holly and Chelsea have a WAIL of a time this week talking ... you guessed it, banshees! Fae in Ireland, ghosts in Scotland, these wailing women are thought to be harbingers of death, mourners ushering souls to the next realm, and family protectors.
