A very well presented and edited video. Looking forward to more in the future.

[@WightWanderer]

Thank you! All the best to you 😊

I've been looking forward to this series since your first teaser - and I wasn't disappointed. Well done to you and Jack for a greatly presented and produced video. Looking forward to the next. Thanks.

[@WightWanderer]

Thank you! Glad you weren't disappointed, all the best 😊

Super Elenore, I love a good murder mystery. That’s a really spooky one too.

[@stefanniemiec8727]

I grew up on the Island - and the rest of my family still lives there. I now live in South Africa - and your vlogs transport me back there. Thanks 😊

[@WightWanderer]

So glad they do! Thank you for watching 😊

[@streetryder4188]

Superb!! Always wanted to know more about this guy after frequenting the hare and hounds many times. Keep the vids coming!

[@WightWanderer]

Thanks Street! Much love and hope you are well mate ❤️

[@johnrob6132]

What a great start to your series, so well scripted and produced. I thought I knew a lot about the island but had never heard of Michael Morey. You have certainly corrected my ignorance in that regard. I have spent many pleasant hours in the White Lion and Hare and Hounds pubs enjoying a leisurely drink in the past. Look forward to your next one.

[@WightWanderer]

Thank you! it was only until we did the research on the case that we found out about the full extent of the story itself, and indeed quite a few other historical grizzly crimes that happened in the area. We will be returning to Arreton for another gruesome tale very soon. 👍 All the best and thank you for the kind words as always 😊

[@raebarker9903]

Oooooh, I didn't know this story! Enjoyed the film and looking forward to the next episodes! 👻

[@WightWanderer]

Thank you! Yes it was interesting to research that's for sure. Hope you are well. All the best 😊

[@allhandlestaken]

Great video .. well told story, Marc Tuckey used to tell it on his ghost walks.

[@WightWanderer]

Thank you for watching! Yes we we're looking into the ghost tales surrounding the story aswell, maybe we'll do another video on that too 😊. All the best.

[@rainbowriverclarkbrown]

Yes, I know this story, thank you for the production, I enjoyed it. ❤️Happy new year to the two of you. 🎄

[@WightWanderer]

Happy New Year to you too! Hope you had a nice Xmas 😊

[@sueweston502]

Great video, looking forward to the next one! Happy New Year to you both :)

[@WightWanderer]

Thank you Sue! Happy new year to you too! 😊🎉

[@tomwoolgar4575]

Fantastic stuff as usual from both of you. Is that a hint of a London accent I hear from Eleanor?

[@WightWanderer]

Thank you very much and cheers for watching! 😊 Yes she's still got the London twang, she's a West Londoner, grew up in Harrow 👊
