S2 E1: Nosferatu and F.W. Murnau

Dear Listener,

Come closer to the fire, pull your shawl a little tighter about your shoulders...pay no attention to the pale looking figure staring longingly at your neck from the shadows.

It is our great pleasure to kick off History Flakes Season 2 with a celebration of Halloween and the story of film maker F. W. Murnau and his most infamous film NOSFERATU.

We've missed you most cruelly, but now we're back to accompany you through the harsh depths of winter.

ALSO...Pip's mic went a bit weird on this one, apologies, it's not your headphones!

You can get in touch and book Jonny or Pip for a tour of Berlin via www.whitlams-berlin-tours.com.

Don't forget to subscribe for more Berlin history every two weeks!

You can find Jonny online on Instagram, Twitter, TikTok, and more!
