Creep Street Podcast is an exploration of the absurd—the unsettling recognition of the fragile veneer of reality, and what may be beyond it. A world indifferent, chaotic, and haunted by eldritch forces. It does not seek comfort in easy answers, nor does it indulge in the naive reassurance that all mysteries can be solved. Instead, it embraces the abyss, staring unflinching into the void where folklore, horror, and true crime intertwine.

Vampires today? Slick hair, silk capes. Some eve sparkle. Vampires back then? Bloated corpses crawling out of the dirt to ruin your crops and torment you with whispering your sins in the dark. In this week’s episode, the Hosts dig deep—literally—into two of Britain’s grimiest, creepiest, nastiest vampire legends: the Berwick Revenant and the Melrose Chaplain. These aren’t your Victorian nightwalkers with dinner reservations and box seats at the opera! These are medieval undead freakshows with unfinished business. First, we head to Berwick-on-Tweed, where a pious man dies, only to rise again each night—chased through the streets by hellhounds from the fiery below. Then it's off to Melrose Abbey, where a debauched priest refuses to stay in the ground, creeping back from the grave to haunt his former patron - and anyone else who skipped evening prayers. What do these revenants want?... Blood? Maybe... Redemption? Doubtful... Peace? Only if you burn the body and do it fast. Join us as we dive into plague, purgatory, and the part of vampire folklore where the vamps aren’t sexy—they’re just filthy. Citizens of the Milky Way, prepare yourselves for The Revenants of Berwick & Melrose!
