About this episode

Yvette explores the haunting legacy of George Joseph Smith's murders and the paranormal phenomena associated with them.

Three wives. Three bathtubs. Three identical murders. And rooms that still won't let go. George Joseph Smith killed with terrifying precision: no weapon, no struggle, just water and a method so quiet it passed as accident. Twice. His case rewrote forensic history. But what he left behind in those rooms has never been fully explained. Violent splashes from empty baths in Blackpool. Walls that turn damp without cause in Herne Bay. A figure bent over a bathtub in Highgate gone the second you look directly. This isn't a ghost story. There's no voice. No footsteps. Just a moment that refuses to end. Yvette explores the hauntings, the murder method investigators physically reconstructed, and six paranormal theories: including why this case is considered the textbook example of trauma embedded in water itself.
