This week's episode includes a promotion for Murray Mysteries, a reimagining of Bram Stoker’s Dracula, set in the present day. Mina Murray is an unemployed twenty-something, jigsaw puzzler, and brand new Podcaster. Her life doesn’t exactly make for interesting content. That is, until her best friend Lucy falls mysteriously ill and Mina’s boyfriend Jonathan loses contact on a work trip to Castle Dracula… Murray Mysteries is the maiden project of Knöves Storytelling, and you can listen wherever you get your podcasts or check them out on Twitter @KnovesStory, on Tumblr @KnovesStorytelling or at the Knöves Storytelling website.
