  • 161 - Cold Cases: Case 9: The South Shields Poltergeist Part Two

    Creepy texts, a ghastly apparition, and a stuffed rabbit with a box cutter.

    Danny and the team dip back into the story of the South Shields poltergeist - the first big paranormal case of the digital age.

    As the bizarre and terrifying events plaguing a young family in the coastal town of South Shields escalate, Danny and his experts must weigh the evidence. Could there be a rational explanation for what's happening - or is something far stranger at work?

  • 160 - Cold Cases: Case 8: The South Shields Poltergeist Part 1

    This week Danny and the team investigate the first big paranormal case of the digital age - the South Shields poltergeist.

    It's a disturbing and well-documented possible poltergeist haunting, where a young family in the coastal town of South Shields are beset by a series of bizarre and sometimes terrifying events.

    Is someone trying to frighten them, or could they be in real danger from something that's harder to explain?

  • 159 - Cold Cases: Case 7: Spring-heeled Jack

    Danny Robins and the team unpack a terrifying mystery that has remained unsolved for almost 200 years - Spring-heeled Jack.

    The demonic character stalked the streets of Victorian England at night, reportedly slashing his victims with sharp claws, breathing blue-white fire, and evading the police by making impossible leaps over rooftops.

    But was he a real person, a supernatural entity, or the product of mass hysteria?

  • 158 - Cold Cases: Case 6: The Haunting of HMS Asp

    It’s the mid-19th century, and HMS Asp is on a routine mission charting the British coastline for the Royal Navy. But strange sounds and a ghostly apparition unsettle the crew, far away from the safety of shore. As fear spreads among the men whispers of a haunting take hold.

    Is this the strain of isolation playing tricks on the mind? Do the crew have cabin fever - or could someone, or something, be moving below decks?

    Danny Robins investigates, with Evelyn Hollow and Dr Ciaràn O'Keeffe.

  • 157 - Cold Cases: Case 5: The Sandown Clown

    Spring 1973, the Isle of Wight, and two young children have an truly weird encounter.

    In marshland near Sandown Airport they meet a 7-foot creature with a yellow hat, three-fingered hands, and triangles for eyes.

    He calls himself ‘All Colours Sam’. Was Sam an otherworldly visitor, or merely the product of a child’s imagination? And is there any connection to an epidemic of UFO sightings over the Isle of Wight at the same time?

    The truth is out there - Danny, Ciaran and Evelyn investigate.
