Today, we're in hell sort of more specifically where at west Wickham park at the Southern edge of the Chilton Hills and we're visiting the Hellfire Caves home to the Hellfire Club. I know what you're thinking. 'Oh, cool! The Dungeons and Dragons club from Stranger Things.' Not quite... The Hellfire Caves were excavated in 1748 for Sir Francis Dashwood well-known prankster and Libertine who was later appointed chancellor of the Exchequer. 

Uh, politician known for his drinking and womanizing. Surely not. So, what did he want with a network of caves 200 meters underneath his home. That's where we venture into the realm of rumour and hearsay. Due to lack of documentation, no one can either confirm or deny it, but this podcast is all about scandal, rumour and gossip. So I'll just say it. 

It was a satanic sex club! My guide for the day is Willow who'll be taking us down into the depths of hell, buckle up!

UK comedian The Honourable Tom Houghton takes us inside Britain’s stately homes, castles and country estates to hear about their local histories, the scandals, the mysteries and occasionally the odd ghost that makes up the fabric of what they are. These are the tales you won’t hear in the guidebook.
