Nikki Druce and Cheryl Hole are wrapping up a whirlwind of a series by visiting one of the most haunted mansions in America… The Winchester Mystery house. After a wealthy wife became a widow, inheriting so much money that she became the richest woman in America, she was plunged into a deep depression. Desperate for answers, she visited a medium who told her that her entire life was cursed, and there was only one thing for it… she would have to travel across the states to build a mansion for the spirits that would haunt her until the day she died. But who was this woman, and what frightening secrets did the house eventually hold? Nikki and Cheryl are going to find out. Expect crazy construction, a suspect medium and a classic door to nowhere.

Killers, Cults and Queens will return for Season 2 in the New Year! And keep your eyes peeled for a festive treat just around the corner!
