<![CDATA[The Latchkey Tales: Stories from the Haunted Heart of San Francisco]]> https://rss.com/podcasts/the-latchkey-tales MJ Hahn’s The Latchkey Tales begin with the arrival of thirteen year old Yuki O'Malley in her hometown of San Francisco. She discovers that the grand Victorian mansion she's inherited is actually known as The Curse Castle, the most haunted house in the city. Good thing Crowley Golden, the slightly sorcerous boy-next-door is around to help smooth things over. Follow the adventures of Yuki and Crowley set against the backdrop of a quirky city where the "everyday" is anything but ordinary.
