Haunted Harmony's Marco Grazzini and Adam Fergus
Send us a textThis week, we're joined by Marco Grazzini and Adam Fergus, stars of the new Hallmark mystery Haunted Harmony Mysteries: Buried at C, premiering October 12th on Hallmark Mystery.If you're a fan of mysteries with a supernatural twist, you're going to love this conversation. We dive deep into what makes the Haunted Harmony franchise unique in the crowded Hallmark mystery space—from the ghost partner dynamic to the romance triangle that doesn't involve the two lead sleuths (looking at you, every other mystery series).Adam, who's originally from Ireland, shares insider tips about visiting the Emerald Isle, including why you should never order an Irish Car Bomb or a Black and Tan if you actually want to fit in with the locals. He also explains the art of "splitting the G" on your first pint of Guinness—and trust me, it's harder than it sounds.Marco talks about why he keeps returning to Ireland for these films (spoiler: it's not the weather), the challenges of filming 100-page scripts in 10-hour Irish workdays versus the typical Canadian 11-hour schedule, and how cinematographers in Ireland have basically mastered shooting through four seasons in a single take.But the absolute highlight? Marco's confession about cheating on his Grade 12 calculus exam by buying it from a security guard, memorizing answers he didn't understand, and still barely passing with a 95%. It's the kind of story that explains why he's an actor and not a math teacher—despite playing one on screen.We also get into:Whether they actually believe in ghosts (their answers might surprise you)The Jane Seymour garden party story you won't believeWhy Tamara Mowry-Housley's laugh is legendary on setThe mysterious object that gets revealed in Buried at C that had the entire cast cracking upHow Richard Cooper's ghost character brings levity to murder mysteriesThe delicate balance of romance in a series versus one-off rom-comsWhy having the romantic tension outside the main sleuthing duo works so wellBoth Marco and Adam are refreshingly candid about the craft of acting, the joys and challenges of series work versus standalone movies, and what it's like to develop a character over multiple films. Adam's perspective as a local filming in his home country adds a fascinating layer to the conversation, while Marco's outsider enthusiasm for Irish culture is genuinely infectious.If you're a Hallmark mystery fan, this is essential listening before Buried at C premieres. And even if you're just here for behind-the-scenes Hollywood stories and a calculus heist confession, you're in for a treat.Episode Highlights:[03:15] Why Irish people make filming in Ireland worth the weather[08:42] Marco's legendary calculus cheating story[14:28] What makes Tamara Mowry-Housley the heart of the series[18:35] Do they believe in ghosts?
