• Ep 104 - The Ghosts of Salem Part 1
    Apr 4 2025

    In episode 104 we begin a very, very special trilogy of episodes in which we’ll head to the USA, to somewhere synonymous with all things creepy, ghostly, and witchy. This place was the scene of unease, irrational panic, and mass hysteria in the late 17th century, and what followed has left a stain on this town

    In this episode I will speak to an expert on the witch trials of 1692, and the legacy left by the murder of 14 women and 6 men, all of whom were guilty of nothing whatsoever.

    I will then guide you on a tour through the haunted locations to be found here, and in this episode, and the two that will follow – we will visit over 20 locations, as fascinating as they are terrifying.

    So join me and let us ask together, just how haunted is Salem?

    Thanks so much to Liah for her incredible insight into the Witch Trials that occurred here, and being so generous with her time.

  • March Patreon Teaser - Weetslade Country Park
    Mar 28 2025

    In the 31st Patreon bonus podcast you join me on location very, very close to where I grew up. I am at a beautiful country park, which was built upon the wasteland of a colliery which had been abandoned, entirely, 26 years earlier.

    What would happen when I visited this site after dark, all alone. A site you won’t find in any books, YouTube videos, or other podcasts, but somewhere, that as a child, I would regularly hear scary stories told about by locals who went to the remote wasteland after dark.

    Let us ask, together, just how haunted is Weetslade Country Park?

    Mar 21 2025

  • Bonus Episode 18 - Dean Court Hotel
    Mar 14 2025
    Originally released for Patreons in February 2024 I hope you enjoy this very special episode.

    In the 18th Patreon bonus podcast we return once more to York, and in particular to a hotel in the shadow of York Minster which was originally built between 1864 and 1865 as three separate dwellings for the Dean of York Minster, to house the Clergy.

    But what would happen when my team and I stepped foot inside this hotel, which has been labelled the most haunted in York by some, considering that only two weeks before our investigation the hotel had made the local news when a guest was pulled out of bed by his feet by unseen hands.

    Let us together ask the question, just how haunted is the Dean Court Hotel?

  • Ep 102 - Cairndhu House
    Mar 7 2025

    In episode 102 we go to Northern Ireland and visit a once great house just a short 30 minute drive from Belfast. Built in the mid 1870s as a summer retreat, this mansion has been a home, a hospital, it aided the war effort during World War 2, and now it is sadly a ruined, vandalised, shadow of its former grandeur, facing an uncertain future. And it’s considered potentially the most haunted house in Northern Ireland.

    So join me and let us ask together, just how haunted is Cairndhu House?

    Thanks so much to Haunted Tour Team NI for joining me to tell us of their experiences in Cairndhu House, check out their Facebook group at www.facebook.com/people/Haunted-Tours-NI-page/100089679175680/

  • February Patreon Teaser - Seven Nights in a 15th Century Castle Part 2
    Feb 26 2025

    In the 30th Patreon bonus podcast we continue our adventure in North Yorkshire, back in the late summer of 2024, when I lived in a haunted castle for seven days and nights.

    Last time out we had a sample of what this 15th century castle had to offer, but in the final four nights of my time here, things are about to get far more scary.

    Tonight, let us once again ask the question, just how haunted is the undercroft of a 15th century castle?

    In episode 101 we head overseas to the beautiful Balearic island of Mallorca. And just 3km from Palma, the capital of Mallorca, we find a castle as well preserved as it is haunted.

    Let us escape the British winter and head to sunny Spain, and let’s ask together how haunted is Bellver Castle?

  • Bonus Episode 17 - 48 Hours Alone With a Haunted Doll
    Feb 14 2025
    Originally released for Patreons in January 2024 I hope you enjoy this very special episode.

    In the 17th Patreon bonus podcast I do something a little different. Following on from episode 69 and 70, in which we looked at some of the most haunted dolls in the world, I buy a haunted doll of my very own and spend some time after dark all alone with nothing but the doll for company.

    Tonight, you join me from a hotel room, as I ask the question, just how haunted is my newly purchased haunted doll?
