In this episode of International Supernatural, Alana and Liam unwrap Merciless Mummies! This week, Alana has a severe case of can'tmakeuphermind-itis and brings you two mummy cases from the Americas - one ancient and one modern-day. Liam descends into the dark crypts beneath St. Michan’s Church, Dublin to shed light on the mummies that lie within.
Tangents include: bad celebrity impressions, Alana gets on her soapbox about European Grand Tours of the 19th-20th centuries, turning mummies into paper, gender reveal parties are dumb.
