The Story That Wasn’t.. True? Blackburn’s Darkest Rumour – 1929

Loading

In this episode of Days of Horror, we examine the Blackburn Hoax – a fabricated story that exposed the fragile line between fear and fact, and how easily a community can be swept up in hysteria.

Because sometimes, the most dangerous crimes… are the ones that never existed.
