Every week this October we're bringing you a few GZM shows you may not have heard before that are just perfect for the Halloween season! This week we bring you... episode 1 of The Ghost Of Jessica…
My name is Jessica Majors.
I'm 11 years old.
Or 154 if you count all the years I've been dead.
I don't.
Because how I feel is just plain 11.
So, how did a ghost from 1875 end up here talking to you? It's a peculiar story.
Funny thing about being dead, at first, you don't even know it.
Greetings and salutations, neighbors.
It's your good buddy Ed broadcasting live from Curiosity, Maine, right here on Curiosity Radio.
Whoa, you hear that? It's fixing to be a storm and a half out there tonight.
Folks say there's something in the air.
Of course, folks around here are always saying stuff like that.
I guess you could say that as long as anyone can remember, this town has been, well, curious.
Maybe it goes back to the great train crash of 1875.
Though if you ask our mayor, the Honorable Joshua Wallace, he'll tell you Curiosity is a quiet, normal town where nothing unusual ever happens.
But you and I know better, don't we? Be mindful of that storm, neighbors.
My opinion? Something big is headed our way.
Folks, stay curious.
What's the point of a graveyard fence? Ghosts can just walk through it anyway.
I don't have much time.
If Mom finds out I came here to your grave again after dark, she'll kill me.
Well, not kill me, but...
Is it a jinx to say that in a cemetery? But I had to talk to you.
Henry's moving in tomorrow.
