Haunted UK Podcast explores the history, hauntings, folklore, and unexplained events tied to some of the world’s most fascinating places and mysteries.
From ancient castles and forgotten tunnels to chilling paranormal encounters, UFO sightings, mysterious disappearances, and strange local legends, each episode blends atmospheric storytelling with real history, eyewitness testimony, and immersive documentary-style narration.
Through in-depth research, location visits, interviews with historians, paranormal investigators, and members of staff connected to these remarkable places, Haunted UK Podcast uncovers the stories that continue to linger long after the events themselves have passed into history.
Whether standing inside a centuries-old fortress, walking through abandoned underground passageways, or listening to the testimony of someone who experienced something they still can’t explain, every episode asks the same question:
What remains behind in certain places… and why do some stories refuse to disappear?
So if you ever find yourself visiting one of the locations featured in these episodes, pause for a moment and look around carefully.
Because the next unexplained experience… could be yours.

- 275 - The Witness Files - Case 08 - Abigail in the Dark
A mother tucks her daughter in for the night in their Niagara Falls apartment, certain she'd just watched her standing silent in the bedroom doorway wearing a nightgown she doesn't own. In this Witness Files case, the ten-year-old explains it the next morning without missing a beat: "That's just Abigail. She used to live here when it was a farm."
It's the first of several accounts from the same witness, spanning a decade and two countries. A slammed car door and running footsteps with no explanation, on the same afternoon her father dies in a road accident miles away. Unexplained footsteps outside a locked hotel room during a Highland dance trip to Glasgow. And, more recently, years of activity across a run of interconnected shops in Ontario, all built on the same patch of land: motion-activated toys switching themselves on one by one, a glass ornament hurled across an empty room, and a mezzanine floor no member of staff will go near alone.
Hear the full witness statement, and find out how to submit your own story to The Witness Files, in this episode.

Sat, 12 Sep 2026 - 23min - 274 - City of the Dead Tours - Greyfriars Kirkyard - Part 2
In Part Two of this Haunted UK Podcast: On the Road interview, Jamie Corstorphine of City of the Dead Tours picks up right where Part One left off, 1679, and the aftermath of the Battle of Bothwell Brig, when captured Covenanter prisoners were brought to Edinburgh and held in the conditions that built Greyfriars Kirkyard's grim reputation.
From there, Jamie takes us into one of Britain's most infamous paranormal cases: the Mackenzie Poltergeist, the story behind the scratches, faintings, and unexplained encounters reported around one particular mausoleum in the kirkyard, and clears up some of the misinformation that's built up around the case over the years. The conversation then heads underground into the South Bridge Vaults, the network of chambers beneath Edinburgh's Old Town once home to illegal taverns and the city's poorest residents, now known for a very different kind of reputation.
Jamie also shares what it's really like running haunted tours through these spaces night after night, and gives us his own quick-fire answers on Edinburgh's most haunted spot.
Listen to the conclusion of our interview with Jamie Corstorphine now, and find out where to book a City of the Dead Tours night out in Edinburgh.

Wed, 09 Sep 2026 - 43min - 273 - The Witness Files - Case 07 - The Station That Never Slept
On his very first shift as a security officer at a fire station in South Wales, Dorian was asked the same question by three different firefighters before lunch: have you seen the ghosts yet? In this Witness Files case, the joke stops being a joke fast, once he learns exactly what the station was built on top of.
The station sits directly on the site of a Victorian colliery, where an explosion in 1878 trapped over three hundred men and boys underground and ultimately killed 268 of them, many by drowning when the pit was flooded to control the fire. Firefighters posted there over the years describe knocking on doors with nobody behind them, appliance bay lights and doors found open on empty patrols, and crews who refuse to linger once the sun goes down.
One colleague who dismissed it all as nonsense changed his mind within a single night shift, after seeing three figures crossing the mess room that he could only describe as looking like miners.
Hear Dorian's full witness statement, and find out how to submit your own account to The Witness Files archive, in this episode.

Sat, 05 Sep 2026 - 17min - 272 - City of the Dead Tours - Greyfriars Kirkyard - Part 1
Beneath Edinburgh's Old Town lie underground vaults and graveyards where visitors say they've encountered something they can't explain. In Part One of this two-part Haunted UK Podcast: On the Road interview, we sit down with Jamie Corstorphine, manager of City of the Dead Tours, to find out why Edinburgh has earned its reputation as one of Britain's most haunted cities.
Jamie has spent years guiding visitors through Edinburgh's darkest corners, and here he takes us into the history of Greyfriars Kirkyard, one of Scotland's most famous graveyards, shaped by centuries of plague, poverty, and public execution. We hear about the Covenanters' Prison hidden within its walls, an unexpected piece of Greyfriars trivia involving a flag once flown over the White House, and Jamie's own take on why some visitors arrive as sceptics and leave convinced something strange is going on.
Part One ends right on the edge of Greyfriars' darkest chapter, as Jamie takes us back to 1679 and the aftermath of the Battle of Bothwell Brig.
Listen to Part One now, and join us for Part Two as we head underground into the Mackenzie Poltergeist and the South Bridge Vaults.

Wed, 02 Sep 2026 - 50min - 271 - Episode 80 - The Beast of the A1075
A lonely road cuts through the darkened landscapes of East Anglia, passing heathland, forest, ancient trackways and places long associated with folklore.
But along the A1075, witnesses have reported something far stranger than shadows at the roadside.
In this atmospheric investigation, Haunted UK Podcast travels into the eerie borderlands of Norfolk and Suffolk to explore a series of unsettling encounters with large, hair-covered creatures seen near Thetford Forest, Wayland Wood, Peddars Way and the surrounding countryside. From a towering ape-like figure said to have drifted across the road in front of a startled driver, to reports of grey, long-snouted beasts, silent woodland apparitions, and a possible encounter with the legendary Black Shuck, these accounts form a strange and persistent pattern across decades.
Rooted in local history, ancient routes, East Anglian folklore and modern witness testimony, this episode examines the stories of those who saw something they could not easily explain - and the lasting fear, confusion and fascination that followed.
Featuring research compiled by Edward Oliver, with witness reports edited and inserted by Lucy Spirit, these accounts are presented with permission on behalf of those who came forward to share their experiences.
Whether these sightings are misidentified animals, the influence of folklore on lonely night journeys, or something more difficult to define, the mystery of the Beast of the A1075 remains one of East Anglia’s most intriguing roadside legends.

Wed, 26 Aug 2026 - 29min - 270 - Bonus Episode - The Mothman of Point Pleasant
A bonus episode arrives ahead of the Season 8 finale, which heads into eastern England's A1075 for years of reported beast sightings there. It got us thinking that cryptids aren't just a British story, so this one leaves the UK behind for one of the best documented cryptid cases anywhere: The Mothman of Point Pleasant.
Four young people described it first, on a freezing night in November 1966: six or seven feet tall, grey, wings folded against its back, and eyes that didn't reflect the light but burned. It made the front page of their local paper by the next morning, and what followed over the next year ended in tragedy, inspired a Hollywood film, and left a small town on the Ohio River with a legend it's never shaken.
Two young couples driving past an abandoned wartime munitions site watched the creature rise vertically off the ground and keep pace above their car at over a hundred miles an hour. Within two days, two more separate groups nearby described the same grey, winged, red eyed figure, including one that followed a young mother onto her porch. A local reporter took five hundred phone calls in a single weekend, and thirteen months later, tragedy struck the town in a way nobody has ever fully explained.
The episode follows the sightings, the writer whose own life turned strange while chasing the story, and the folklore, including the legends wrongly attached to Chernobyl, that grew up around Point Pleasant afterwards. A bonus episode to hold you over before Season 8's last case drops. Listen now.

Sun, 23 Aug 2026 - 25min - 269 - Fright Bites - EP12 - Open Evening & Other Encounters
An empty college corridor. A supermarket aisle at 2:30 a.m. The top floor of a tired high-rise. A village pub just before closing.
In this Fright Bites collection, four listeners share short accounts from ordinary places after dark - the moments when work, routine and familiarity give way to something harder to explain.
A teacher sees a silent girl standing at the windows during a sixth form open evening. A night-shift worker finds a customer trolley where no trolley should be. A tenant on the twenty-second floor hears footsteps passing a door with nowhere to go. And in a village pub, a stranger arrives for last orders, takes his usual seat, and leaves behind a full pint.
Compact, personal and quietly unsettling, these are brief encounters from the Haunted UK Podcast archive - stories where the ordinary world feels almost unchanged, except for one detail that refuses to fit.

Wed, 19 Aug 2026 - 15min - 268 - S08 - EP09 - Royal Ghosts and Haunted Royals
Power leaves its mark on the places that hold it.
Across royal palaces, castles, chapels, staircases and private chambers, stories have endured of monarchs, queens, servants, soldiers and courtiers who seem unable to leave the world behind.
This episode explores some of the most atmospheric royal hauntings from Britain and beyond, from Anne Boleyn’s ghost at the Tower of London, Blickling Hall, Hever Castle and Windsor, to the haunted galleries of Hampton Court Palace, where Jane Seymour, Catherine Howard and Sybil Penn are said to remain.
The journey moves through the darker edges of royal history: the Princes in the Tower, the murder of David Rizzio at Holyroodhouse, the restless spirits of Glamis Castle, the Romanov tragedy, the haunted legacy of Versailles, and ghostly accounts connected to palaces in France, Mexico, China, Sweden, Denmark, Russia and Austria.
Blending historical storytelling with witness accounts and enduring folklore, this documentary-style episode asks why royal residences so often become places of haunting. Are these apparitions echoes of trauma, glimpses into the past, or something more personal - a final trace of those who lived, ruled, suffered and died behind palace walls?

Wed, 12 Aug 2026 - 43min - 267 - Dark Matters – EP05 – The Ghosts of Tutbury Castle
Forty grown men, standing in the dark below a ruined tower in Staffordshire, looked up and saw a woman in a pure white Elizabethan gown staring straight back down at them... and every one of them knew instantly it couldn't be a member of staff. This is the story of Tutbury Castle, one of Britain's most haunted locations, and the strange, decades-spanning case for what's still walking its grounds.
Tutbury held Mary, Queen of Scots prisoner across four separate stays, and she's said to haunt it still, seen sprinting across open grass at impossible speed by an off-duty Royal Marine in 1984, spotted by archaeologists mid-dig, and glimpsed by the castle's own most sceptical staff. Then there's Ellie, a child spirit in the King's Bedroom who tugs at visitors' fingers one by one, and the Keeper, an armoured figure at John of Gaunt's Gateway still telling people to "get thee hence."
Over 250 sightings have been logged since 2000. Now, with the castle closed and its long-serving curator retired, there's nobody left walking those grounds after dark to report back on what's still there.
Hear the full case for yourself in this episode of Dark Matters.

Sat, 08 Aug 2026 - 30min - 266 - The Witness Files - Case 06 - The Graythwaite Apparitions
An empty hotel bar after a wedding. A man in a bowler hat with a sherry glass. And a second apparition seen months later by a guest with no knowledge of the first.
When Rob began working at Graythwaite Manor in Grange-over-Sands, he knew little of the hotel’s history. One night, while closing the bar after a wedding, he glanced across the room and saw a man seated in the bay window — calm, silent, and dressed in a bowler hat. Seconds later, the figure was gone.
What might have been dismissed as a fleeting mistake became harder to explain when the hotel’s owner revealed a detail from its past: the bar had once been the drawing room of the manor’s original owner, a retired banker from Bradford known locally for wearing a bowler hat.
Months later, another wedding brought another sighting. This time, a bridesmaid at breakfast saw what appeared to be a maid in traditional dress approaching the dining room — only for her to vanish before the order could be taken.
In this case from The Witness Files, one former hotel worker recalls two quiet but striking apparitions inside a Cumbrian manor house: encounters that suggest some buildings remain occupied long after their guests have gone.

Wed, 05 Aug 2026 - 11min - 265 - Stuck in the Elevator - A Patreon and Kofi Round Up
The host walks into a lift, and the lift promptly breaks it. What follows is a very overdue apology: months, in some cases the better part of a year, of Patreon and Ko-fi support that's never been properly thanked out loud, on the show, until now.
Trapped between floors with nothing but tinny elevator music playing, the host works through every tier of supporter, by name, from the Totally Tormented tier all the way down to the fleeting Apparition tier. Dozens of names get read aloud, several with their own running jokes, as thanks for keeping a small independent paranormal show on the air.
If you've ever wondered whether your support actually gets noticed, this is the answer. Press play to hear your name, and find out how to end up in the lift next time.

Sat, 01 Aug 2026 - 3min - 263 - S08 - EP08 - Between Sleep and Waking
There are moments when the body sleeps, but the mind remains awake. A room becomes unfamiliar. A presence gathers in the dark. And something unseen waits at the edge of waking.
In this deeply personal account, Ashleigh shares a lifetime of night-time experiences shaped by sleep paralysis, grief, strange intuition, and encounters that seem to blur the boundary between dream and reality.
From a childhood episode marked by the smell of brandy and a devastating phone call the next morning, to military accommodation built on the site of an old priory, this story moves through fear, protection, and the lingering sense that some places — and some people — may be watched over. Alongside Ashleigh’s own experiences, Jake’s unsettling childhood encounters, shared sensations, and the recurring figure of the Man in the Hat deepen the mystery.
This is not presented as proof, but as lived experience: a story of shadow figures, guardian presences, grief, messages from beyond, and the uneasy question of what may be waiting for us between sleep and waking.

Wed, 29 Jul 2026 - 40min - 262 - Fright Bites - EP11 - The Breath Over My Shoulder & Other Encounters
A breath beside an empty shoulder. A hand on the stairs. A child giggling in the night… and a shadow seen by two witnesses at once.
In this collection of Fright Bites, four listener accounts explore brief, personal moments where the ordinary world seems to shift.
At Dudley Castle, a visitor studying old graffiti hears a long exhale close to his ear, only to find himself completely alone. In a friend’s house, a strange presence appears on the landing before offering an unsettling, physical touch on the stairs. In rural North Essex, a baby’s unexplained laughter raises a deeply personal question about whether a lost grandfather came back to visit. And on a first holiday abroad in Magaluf, two friends realise they both saw the same dark figure standing at the end of the bed.
Short, intimate, and witness-led, these accounts don’t rely on grand spectacle. They linger because they are small, close, and difficult to dismiss - the kind of moments that leave people wondering what was really beside them in the dark.

Wed, 22 Jul 2026 - 10min - 261 - Haunted World Cup 2026 - Atlanta
Beneath Atlanta’s glass towers and Southern charm lies a city shaped by fire, loss, reinvention, legends, and hauntings that would keep the bravest of us up at night.
As the World Cup journey brings us to Atlanta, we explore a city built on destruction, ambition, and survival. From historic cemeteries and haunted theatres to hotel tragedies, battlefield echoes, and Southern folklore, Atlanta reveals a darker side beneath its modern skyline, one where the past still speaks through fire, music, memory, and the shadows of the old South.

Wed, 15 Jul 2026 - 26min - 260 - S08 - EP07 - Sleep Paralysis Experiences Part 2
A dark shape at the foot of the bed. A voice in an unknown language. A mirror reflection that refuses to wake.
In this second part of our exploration of sleep paralysis, listeners share deeply personal accounts of becoming trapped between sleep and waking — aware, afraid, and unable to move.
These experiences range from shadow figures, strange voices and the sensation of being watched, to vivid dream states that seem to blur into something harder to explain. Some accounts sit firmly within the unsettling world of sleep paralysis; others leave behind questions that feel less easily answered.
Featuring listener stories connected to Dr Emma Barkus’ sleep paralysis research study at Northumbria University, this episode of The Haunted UK Podcast returns to one of the most disturbing and mysterious states of human consciousness: the moment when the mind wakes before the body does.

Sun, 12 Jul 2026 - 30min - 258 - Dark Matters - EP04 - The Cursed Chair of Thomas Busby
A plain wooden chair. A Yorkshire murder. And a warning that has followed one object for generations.
In North Yorkshire, inside Thirsk Museum, a chair hangs suspended safely out of reach. According to local legend, anyone who sits in it will meet a sudden and untimely death. Its story is tied to Thomas Busby, a man executed in 1702 for the murder of his father-in-law, Daniel Auty, near Sandhutton crossroads.
For years, the chair was kept at the Busby Stoop Inn, where locals, travellers, and sceptics could see it for themselves. Around it grew stories of dares, accidents, wartime deaths, strange coincidences, and warnings too persistent to ignore. Some accounts are rooted firmly in history. Others live in that darker space between folklore, pub memory, and local dread.
In this episode of Dark Matters, we examine the real murder behind the legend, the cursed reputation of Busby’s chair, its removal to Thirsk Museum, and the uncomfortable question at the centre of every cursed object story: when does ordinary furniture become something people are genuinely afraid to touch?
A real execution. A haunted inn. A chair lifted out of reach. And a legend that still asks whether some objects carry more than age, wood, and memory.

Sat, 11 Jul 2026 - 13min - 257 - The Witness Files - Case 05 - Never Look Behind You
A family home in Lancashire. A dark hallway no one wants to face. And a presence that seems to move through the rooms as if it still belongs there.
When Klare’s family moved into a smart semi-detached dormer bungalow in 1988, the house seemed like a fresh start. But before long, the upstairs landing, the entrance hall, and the quiet hours of the night began to carry an atmosphere none of them could easily dismiss.
There were sounds from empty rooms. Footsteps, plugs, voices, unexplained music, and the feeling of being watched from the dark. Then came the sightings: a shadow-like man at the foot of the stairs, a figure groaning at the end of a bed, someone passing outside a bathroom window where no one should have been, and later, stranger moments still — including a woman seated silently in the bedroom, dogs reacting to something unseen, and a baby monitor that seemed to record an event that never physically happened.
In this case from The Witness Files, one family’s long-running experience asks what happens when a house becomes peaceful enough to live in… but never quite ordinary enough to trust.

Wed, 08 Jul 2026 - 22min - 256 - Messages at Himley Hall - An Evening with Emily Baker
Inside the atmospheric rooms of Himley Hall, an unusual evening unfolds - part paranormal investigation, part public vigil, and part live demonstration of mediumship.
Joined by The Wright Paranormal team, spiritual medium and psychic artist Emily Baker, and fifty members of the public, this episode captures a more intimate side of the unexplained: not simply the history of a haunted location, but the personal moments people take away from it.
Throughout the night, guests share the messages they felt they received, ranging from humorous and unexpected details to deeply emotional experiences connected with grief, memory, family, and comfort. Erin reflects on a message that seemed to speak to her relationship with her mother. Tommy recalls a lighter moment involving his driving lessons. Sam shares a personal and funny exchange that stayed with her. Gail speaks about an experience that brought her a sense of peace.

Wed, 01 Jul 2026 - 23min - 254 - S08 - EP06 - Haunted by a Past Life
Some hauntings seem to come from outside us.
A figure in a room. A voice in the dark. A presence moving through a house. But for Asher, the most unsettling presence in her life may have been something far more intimate — a former version of herself.
From childhood, Asher experienced strange dreams, disturbing images, powerful instincts, and an unexplained pull towards places, symbols, and behaviours she couldn’t understand. Years later, during a past life regression she entered with deep scepticism, she found herself inside another life: a woman of power, isolation, duty, grief, and loss.
What emerged was a story that seemed to echo through Asher’s own life in startling ways. A medieval setting. A royal identity. A life connected to Poland. A deep loneliness. A fear of childbirth. A recurring sense of inherited duty. And afterwards, research that appeared to lead her towards Queen Jadwiga, a historical figure whose life carried strange parallels with the memories uncovered under hypnosis.
But this account does not end with regression. Asher’s experiences also include near-death timing, protective presences, unexplained movement, spiritual awakening, and encounters with what she describes as lost souls seeking help.
A thoughtful, strange, and deeply personal episode exploring past life memory, reincarnation, spiritual encounters, and the possibility that some hauntings may not be tied to a place at all… but to the unresolved echoes of who we once were.

Sun, 28 Jun 2026 - 29min - 252 - Fright Bites - EP10 - The Shape in the Refectory & Other Encounters
A shape forming in an old refectory. A drinks can struck by something that wasn’t there. A blistered figure in a West Witton bedroom… and a white lady drifting through the walls of an Elizabethan manor.
In this collection of Fright Bites, four listener accounts bring together fleeting but unforgettable moments of the unexplained. A volunteer in a historic house sees white smoke gather into something almost human, before a later joke is answered by an icy touch to the face. On a quiet Essex road in the 1990s, an empty can shoots from beneath a parked car with no visible cause. A holiday cottage in West Witton becomes the setting for a series of disturbing night-time encounters connected to the legend of Owd Bartle. And at a Wiltshire manor, a witness recalls the white lady, the children who came and went, and other apparitions tied to old buildings and older memories.
Short, intimate, and witness-led, these are the kinds of experiences that leave no easy explanation - only the lasting sense that something briefly crossed over into ordinary life.

Sat, 27 Jun 2026 - 14min - 251 - The Witness Files - Case 04 - The Ward Never Sleeps
Hospitals are places where life and death sit closer than most of us ever see.
For one nurse, the unexplained began long before her career in intensive care. As a child, she saw shadows, sensed presences, and experienced strange figures in the family home. Later, in an old farm cottage, lights switched on by themselves, kettles boiled without touch, footsteps moved through empty rooms, and even the family dog seemed to follow someone no one else could see.
But it was during her years working in ICU that those experiences took on a deeper and more unsettling meaning.
Across night shifts, COVID wards, closed bays, and quiet corridors, she and her colleagues witnessed shadows moving past doorways, equipment shifting on its own, sudden changes in temperature, unseen hands, disembodied voices, and the shape of a person standing behind a patient’s curtain where no one should have been.
Most moving of all are the accounts from patients nearing the end of life — many of them describing visits from loved ones who had already passed, telling them it would be all right.
This Witness Files case is a thoughtful, intimate account of hospital hauntings, end-of-life experiences, and the quiet possibility that some wards never truly sleep.

Wed, 24 Jun 2026 - 15min - 250 - Haunted World Cup 2026 - Boston
Ancient graveyards. Revolutionary ghosts. Phantom ships in the Atlantic fog. Tonight, we journey to one of America's most haunted cities.
Boston is one of America's oldest cities, a place where centuries of history linger around every corner. From ancient burial grounds and Revolutionary legends to haunted hotels and ghostly encounters, some believe the city's past has never truly left.
In this episode of Haunted UK Abroad, we explore the folklore, hauntings, and dark history of Boston and the Massachusetts coast, including King's Chapel Burying Ground, Boston Common, Beacon Hill, the Omni Parker House, the legend of the Gloucester Ghost Ship, and the enduring shadow of the Salem Witch Trials.
Because in Boston, history is never far away... and some believe neither are the dead.

Tue, 23 Jun 2026 - 38min - 249 - Dark Matters - EP03 - The Pentyrch Incident
Helicopters over dark fields. Controlled blasts in the early hours. And one witness who believed something far larger was moving above Pentyrch.
In February 2016, the quiet Welsh village of Pentyrch became the centre of one of the UK’s most disputed modern UFO cases. The Ministry of Defence acknowledged that a military exercise took place in the area, with simulated munitions, aircraft activity, and later explanations involving an Apache helicopter diversion. But for those who believe something extraordinary happened that night, the official record only deepens the mystery.
This episode of Dark Matters examines the documented military activity, the FOI responses, the withheld details, the Exercise Chameleon NOTAMs, and the witness account at the heart of the case: a huge pyramid of light over the fields, smaller objects moving around it, and the sense that what unfolded was more than a routine exercise.
Pentyrch remains unsettling because it is not built on silence or rumour alone. The aircraft were real. The detonations were real. The secrecy was real. The question is whether the most extraordinary claim from that night belongs to the same reality - or to the confusion that reality created

Sat, 20 Jun 2026 - 13min - 248 - Haunted UK On The Road - Hack Green Nuclear Bunker - Part 2
The investigation continues beneath the surface of Hack Green Nuclear Bunker.
After exploring the bunker’s Cold War history and after-hours atmosphere, the second part moves deeper into the experiences connected to the site: the strange sensations, unexplained encounters, and witness accounts that have become part of Hack Green’s modern identity.
This is not simply a story of concrete corridors and preserved military rooms. It is a story about what remains in a place shaped by secrecy, isolation, and the constant shadow of catastrophe. As Bryony and Emma continue their conversation with Steve, the bunker begins to feel less like a museum and more like a building still holding onto something.
Part 2 brings together witness testimony, paranormal discussion, and the lingering emotional weight of a location designed for the end of the world - asking whether places built around fear can absorb it, preserve it, and perhaps even echo it back.

Wed, 17 Jun 2026 - 45min - 247 - Haunted UK On The Road - Hack Green Nuclear Bunker - Part 1
After the doors close and the visitors leave, Hack Green Nuclear Bunker becomes something else entirely.
Deep beneath the Cheshire countryside, this once-secret Cold War site was built for a future everyone feared, but hoped would never come. Concrete corridors, steel doors, preserved rooms, and the weight of nuclear history all remain — quiet, watchful, and strangely alive in the darkness.
With exclusive after-hours access, Steve explores Hack Green once the public noise has faded, beginning with a personal tour of the bunker before speaking with Bryony and Emma about the site’s history and the unexplained experiences reported within its walls.
This first part sets the scene: the Cold War context, the atmosphere of the bunker, and the strange tension that seems to gather in places built around secrecy, fear, and survival. A documentary-style journey into one of the UK’s most unusual historic locations - and the beginning of a deeper paranormal investigation.

Sat, 13 Jun 2026 - 42min - 246 - Fright Bites - EP09 - The Rooftop Toilets
An old Victorian primary school in London’s East End. A rarely used rooftop playground. And, on one ordinary school day, a set of toilets that should have been empty.
When Jeff was eight or nine years old, a plumbing problem meant the only working toilets were on the roof. Mid-lesson, he was sent upstairs alone. Inside, the room felt strangely quiet, the kind of silence that makes a child pause before they understand why.
Then he heard it: the clear laughter of a young girl.
Assuming someone else was inside, he called out. No answer came. One by one, he checked the cubicles, expecting to find another pupil hiding there. But every door opened onto nothing. No child. No movement. No way out except the one he had come through.
A short, chilling Fright Bites account of childhood fear, old school buildings, and the kind of unexplained sound that stays with someone long after they’ve run back to class.

Wed, 10 Jun 2026 - 3min - 245 - The Witness Files - Case 03 - The Night She Couldn't Leave
A cold January night. A quiet factory. A cleaner finishing her shift and heading home as usual.
But behind the building, beside the bike sheds, something stopped her from leaving.
At first, it felt like the bike had snagged on the rack. Then it pulled backwards. Moments later, her high-vis vest was violently tugged by something she couldn’t see. Alone in the car park, terrified and trying to run, she had no way of knowing that someone else had seen it happen: the security guard, watching the whole encounter unfold on CCTV.
What followed only deepened the mystery. A white lab-coat style jacket was later seen floating above the factory floor before dropping to the ground. Stories began to surface about the land beneath the building: a former Army engineer barracks, a fatal accident involving a tank, and later accounts of sudden deaths in cars on the same site.
This Witness Files case brings together first-hand family testimony, CCTV corroboration, workplace folklore, and the unsettling possibility that some places keep hold of trauma long after the original buildings have gone.
A chilling account of an ordinary night shift interrupted by something unseen — and a reminder that the past may not always stay buried beneath the places we build over it.

Sat, 06 Jun 2026 - 12min - 244 - Fright Bites - EP08 - The Transfer Call
In the quiet hours of a hospital night shift, routine can feel strangely fragile.
A porter receives a transfer call just after three in the morning. No patient name. Only a ward number. The ward is in an older part of the hospital, half-empty and dimly lit, with beds left behind like the last traces of a forgotten shift.
One bed is occupied. The patient lies completely still beneath the sheet. There is no nurse waiting, no name on the board, and no explanation for where the patient is meant to go. Then the call bell lights up above the bed, and a quiet voice says one word: “Sorry.”
The transfer begins as normal. The bed moves through the corridors and down to the lifts. But when the doors open on the lower floor, the bed is empty.
A short, unsettling Fright Bites account from a hospital night worker, where the ordinary machinery of care — wards, call bells, transfer requests, and silent corridors — becomes the setting for something impossible to explain.

Wed, 03 Jun 2026 - 4min - 243 - S08 - EP05 - The Haunting of Clover Cottage
Clover Cottage was meant to be a new beginning.
A quiet home near Ross-on-Wye. A place to rebuild, settle down, and finally create the kind of life that feels permanent. But almost from the moment the couple moved in, the house began to behave as though it already belonged to someone else.
A swing moves violently beneath the old oak tree when there is barely any wind. Tapping comes at the kitchen window in the dead of night. Small handprints appear on the bedroom glass. A hidden space beneath the pantry floor reveals old steps leading down into darkness. Then, during a dinner party, a guest sees a young girl standing at an upstairs window… watching from inside a house where no child lives.
As the disturbances grow, the history of the land begins to surface. Long before Clover Cottage was built, another house stood there. A house connected to the Flynn family, a devastating fire in the 1930s, and a young girl named Lucy whose story had been half-buried in local memory for decades.
This is a haunting shaped not only by fear, but by grief, memory, and acknowledgement. A deeply atmospheric account of a home where the past was not simply discovered, but listened to — and where the living and the dead may have found a way to coexist.

Sat, 30 May 2026 - 56min - 242 - Fright Bites - EP07 - Hard Shoulder
A late-night drive on an almost empty stretch of the M6 should have been uneventful.
But just past Wigan, one driver noticed a woman standing alone on the hard shoulder. No broken-down car. No hazard lights. No attempt to wave for help. Just a still figure in a light-coloured coat, facing the road as traffic passed in the dark.
As the car drew level, she turned and looked directly at the driver - not frightened, not pleading, but waiting. A moment later, she was gone. No movement. No trace. Nothing visible in the mirror but the empty hard shoulder behind.
In this short Fright Bites encounter, a seemingly ordinary motorway sighting becomes something far harder to explain, especially when a colleague later mentions the stories attached to that same stretch of road: reports of a woman seen near the place where a fatal accident was said to have happened years before.
A quiet, chilling account of late-night roads, roadside ghosts, and the unnerving feeling that some places hold onto the final moments of those who never made it home.

Wed, 27 May 2026 - 4min - 241 - Dark Matters: Gef the Talking Mongoose
On a remote hillside on the Isle of Man, a lonely farmhouse became the centre of one of the strangest cases in British paranormal history.
The house was Doarlish Cashen. The family were the Irvings. And the voice inside the walls claimed to belong to Gef — an “extra, extra clever mongoose” that sang, shouted, insulted visitors, mimicked animals, and spoke from hidden spaces no one could fully reach.
At first, the story sounds almost absurd. A talking mongoose in a remote Manx farmhouse. But beneath the oddity lies something far more unsettling: a family living in deep isolation, strange noises moving through the walls, a presence that seemed to watch and answer back, and investigators who could never quite agree on what was really happening.
This episode of Dark Matters explores the case through the people who tried to explain it, from Harry Price and the National Laboratory of Psychical Research to Nandor Fodor’s more psychological interpretation of the haunting. Was Gef a hoax, a poltergeist, an unusual animal, a projection of loneliness, or something that still sits uncomfortably between all of those explanations?
A strange, atmospheric journey into folklore, psychical research, Manx history, and one of the most peculiar voices ever said to emerge from the dark.

Wed, 20 May 2026 - 1min - 239 - Fright Bites - EP06 - The Third Floor Desk
3. Premium episode description
An overnight security guard patrols an almost abandoned office block where little ever changes. Empty corridors. Silent lifts. Rows of stripped-back offices left frozen in time.
But on the third floor, one desk remains.
At first, it’s easy to dismiss the strange activity as faulty equipment and exhaustion. A lift opening on its own. The sound of typing echoing through empty rooms. A chair inexplicably pulled back from a desk no one should be using. Then the CCTV begins to capture something impossible.
In this Fright Bites episode, we hear the unsettling account of a night worker who came face to face with the lingering presence of a former employee… a man said to have died alone at his desk years earlier, unnoticed for days inside the silent building.
A short-form paranormal encounter rooted in isolation, empty workplaces, late-night patrols, and the unnerving feeling that some places never truly empty out.

Wed, 20 May 2026 - 5min - 238 - S08-E04 - A Life of Knowing - Catherine’s Story
Some people experience the unexplained once, and spend the rest of their lives trying to understand it.
For Catherine Jackson, it has never been just one moment. It has been a lifetime of knowing things before they happened, sensing presences in empty rooms, hearing voices with no visible source, and living alongside something that seems to follow from house to house.
From childhood in Western Australia, Catherine carried a quiet certainty about events before they unfolded. She knew when her grandmother was about to arrive. She sensed the death of her father before the news reached her. Years later, she would hear a radio report of a well-known entertainer’s death a full week before it was officially announced.
But Catherine’s story reaches far beyond premonition. Across decades, homes, relationships, and generations, strange activity has continued around her and her family. A hand stopping her from stepping into traffic. A shadow figure standing beside the bed. A child seen in the kitchen and then gone. Objects vanishing and reappearing in impossible places. Voices calling from empty rooms. And, perhaps most unsettling of all, a doppelgänger seen by her own son: an exact version of Catherine sitting on her bed, reading, while Catherine herself was miles away.
This is a deeply personal witness account of paranormal encounters, family memory, grief, intuition, and the strange possibility that some people don’t simply pass through the unexplained. They live with it.
A calm, atmospheric journey into one woman’s lifelong relationship with the unseen — and the question of whether a haunting can follow a person, rather than a place.

Sat, 16 May 2026 - 51min - 230 - Fright Bites - EP05 - The Last Customer
After closing time in a Somerset social club, the music had stopped, the guests had gone, and the building should have been empty.
But as Helen cleaned behind the bar, she saw an elderly woman walking slowly across the dance floor towards the toilets. She hadn’t heard anyone enter. The doors hadn’t opened. And when Helen and her colleague went to check, there was no one there.
In this Fright Bites story from Haunted UK Podcast, a listener recalls a quiet Saturday night shift that turned into something far stranger: a vanishing figure, a locked escape route, an empty toilet block, and the sudden sound of furniture scraping across the floor.
What follows is a short but deeply unsettling true paranormal experience from Somerset, where an ordinary social club seems to hold the echo of a presence that had appeared before — and left behind the same impossible detail.
A ghostly woman. A single chair. And a building that may not have been as empty as it seemed.

Wed, 13 May 2026 - 6min - 229 - The Witness Files - Case 02 - Behind the Black Windows
A family searching for more space finds a beautiful house in Tunis, set behind metal gates, surrounded by fruit trees, heat, and blinding North African sun.
But from the moment Emma first sees the property, something feels wrong. The windows are open, the day is bright, and yet the glass shows nothing but blackness.
In this Witness Files case from Haunted UK Podcast, Emma shares the deeply unsettling account of the six months she and her family spent inside a house that seemed to resist them from the beginning. What starts as unease soon becomes something far harder to dismiss: dark figures moving through rooms, freezing cold in the middle of a Tunisian summer, pulsing lights, oppressive presences, and the terrifying moment another witness sees what Emma had been trying to explain.
Rooted in first-hand testimony, this case explores the fear of living in a place that feels occupied by something unseen, the emotional strain of not being believed, and the cultural shadow of the Jinn — spirits said, in some traditions, to interfere with and torment human lives.
A witness account of intuition ignored, darkness behind glass, and a house that left its mark long after the family escaped it.

Sat, 09 May 2026 - 21min - 228 - Fright Bites - EP04 - It Never Stopped Watching
A teenage boy sees a black figure standing motionless in the upper window of an abandoned school building. It doesn’t move. It doesn’t speak. It simply watches.
Years later, the same kind of shadow appears again — not in the old school, but behind him.
In this Fright Bites story from Haunted UK Podcast, listener Jack Henderson shares a deeply unsettling account of a presence that seemed to appear at different points across his life. From a former school near Strawberry Field, to a locked workshop, to the quiet darkness of a newly bought house, the encounters form a pattern that’s difficult to dismiss.
This short true paranormal story explores the fear of being watched, the strangeness of shadow figure sightings, and the lingering question of whether some encounters are tied to places… or to people.
A figure in a window. A witness frozen in fear. And a darkness that may never have fully let go.

Wed, 06 May 2026 - 7min - 227 - S08-E03 - Sleep Paralysis Experiences Part 1
There are moments in the dark when the body refuses to move, the voice disappears, and the room begins to feel occupied by something unseen.
For some, it is a pressure on the chest. For others, footsteps beside the bed, figures in the doorway, hands around the ankles, or the unmistakable sense that something is waiting just out of sight.
In this first part of a listener-led exploration of sleep paralysis, Haunted UK Podcast gathers real accounts from people who have experienced one of the most frightening states of the sleeping mind. Some describe the classic terror of being unable to move or cry out. Others speak of shadow figures, insect-like entities, green-tinged rooms, dragging sensations, dark masses, strange lights, and the chilling figure known by many as the Hat Man.
The episode also touches on the research of Dr Emma Barkus at Northumbria University, whose work into sleep paralysis helped prompt listeners to share their own experiences. What emerges is a deeply human collection of stories, sitting somewhere between science, folklore, trauma, stress, sleep disturbance, and the lingering question of why so many people report such similar encounters.
Calm, unsettling, and intimate, this episode explores sleep paralysis not as a simple horror story, but as a strange borderland between waking life and dream — a place where the mind may be vulnerable, the body helpless, and the dark beside the bed feels anything but empty.

Sat, 02 May 2026 - 40min - 226 - Fright Bites - EP03 - The Woman on the Stairs
A young boy sits alone at the top of the stairs in a quiet family home.
The upstairs lights are off. The house is ordinary. Nothing should be there.
Then movement comes from the bedroom doorway.
In this Fright Bites episode from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares a chilling listener account from Richard, who grew up in a house in a coastal town in the North East of England. One winter evening, after being sent upstairs, he saw the full figure of an older woman glide from his bedroom into his sister’s room — a woman he had never seen before, and one his mother would later admit she had also encountered years earlier.
What makes this story linger is its simplicity. No dramatic haunting. No long build-up. Just a clear, unsettling sighting in a family home, witnessed by a child and later echoed by another member of the household. A woman with her hair in a bun, her hands cupped before her, moving silently through the space as though the walls and rooms still belonged to her.
Atmospheric, intimate, and quietly unnerving, this short true paranormal story explores memory, childhood fear, family testimony, and the strange possibility that some buildings may hold onto more than just the lives lived inside them.

Wed, 29 Apr 2026 - 5min - 225 - Dark Matters: The Owlman of Mawnan
Above an ancient Cornish church, something impossible was said to have appeared.
Red eyes. Broad wings. Black claws. A shape too strange to be only a bird… and too vivid to be forgotten.
In this opening episode of Dark Matters, Haunted UK Podcast explores the enduring legend of the Owlman of Mawnan — one of Britain’s strangest modern creature stories. Centred around St Mawnan Church in Cornwall, the case draws together alleged witness sightings, local folklore, eerie landscape, and the uncomfortable question of how an unexplained encounter becomes a legend.
The story begins with earlier rumours of a large, ferocious bird near the church, before taking shape in 1976, when two young sisters reportedly saw a winged creature above the tower. Later that same year, another account added the sound of hissing from the trees, a strange figure in the darkness, and something lifting into the air before vanishing from sight.
But the Owlman is not a simple creature case. Its history is closely tied to Tony “Doc” Shiels — magician, artist, occult showman, trickster, and one of the most colourful figures in British paranormal folklore. Through him, the case becomes harder to separate from performance, mythmaking, misidentification, and the strange power of a story told in exactly the right place.
Atmospheric, thoughtful, and quietly unsettling, this episode looks at the Owlman not just as a possible sighting, but as a modern legend: part witness testimony, part folklore, part Cornish mystery, and part shadow cast by the church tower at dusk.

Sat, 25 Apr 2026 - 12min - 224 - Fright Bites - EP02 - Still Sitting in the Garden
A palliative care worker visits the home of a woman she once cared for.
The funeral has passed. The house is quiet. The garden is still alive with colour.
Then someone steps out of the greenhouse.
In this Fright Bites episode from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares a deeply moving listener account from a member of a palliative care team, whose work brought her close to families at the most difficult moments of their lives. After caring for a woman named Doris in her final days, she later returned to check on Doris’s husband — and saw something in the garden that she has never been able to forget.
This is not a story built on fear. It is quieter, stranger, and more tender than that. A woman who had passed away appears healthy, vivid, and real, smiling and waving from the garden she loved. Her husband says nothing, but his knowing expression suggests he may understand far more than he lets on.
Atmospheric, intimate, and gently unsettling, this short true paranormal story explores end-of-life experiences, grief, love, after-death encounters, and the possibility that some presences remain close to the places — and people — they loved most.

Wed, 22 Apr 2026 - 6min - 223 - S08-E02 - The Tudor House and Room Number Nine
An abandoned Tudor house in a quiet West Midlands village.
A hidden room filled with books.
Footsteps on the stairs… when no one should have been inside.
In this atmospheric listener account from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares the story of “Tom”, whose strange experiences began as a childhood adventure and ended as something far more unsettling. In the late 1980s or early 1990s, Tom and two friends slipped into an empty historic house that had long fascinated the local children. What began as a secret den soon became a terrifying encounter with footsteps moving through the building, climbing the stairs, and stopping directly outside the room where the boys were hiding.
Years later, after moving to Cornwall, Tom found himself living in a block of bedsits where another disturbing mystery began to unfold. Room Number Nine, recently vacated by a former friend, should have been empty. But Tom and his girlfriend heard clear movement inside. No one had entered. No lights had come on. No footsteps had crossed the landing. And yet something seemed to be moving around in the darkness next door.
With echoes of residual haunting, haunted buildings, unseen presences, and the strange emotional weight certain rooms can hold, this episode explores two deeply personal paranormal experiences connected by memory, place, and the unnerving feeling that some spaces may not be as empty as they appear.

Sat, 18 Apr 2026 - 59min - 222 - Fright Bites - EP01 - The Ship on the School Field
A quiet school field.
A strange dream in the early hours.
A vast ship appearing where no ship should ever be.
In this first Fright Bites story from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares Andrew’s unsettling account of a childhood sleepover in February 1987. After spending the day playing golf on their school field, Andrew’s friend woke suddenly from a vivid and distressing dream. He had seen a huge ferry on the grass, red along the bottom and white above, with people moving on the decks before the vessel began to tip onto its side.
Two weeks later, on 6 March 1987, a ferry left Zeebrugge harbour in Belgium and capsized shortly after departure. When Andrew later saw footage of the disaster, the details felt impossible to ignore: the colours, the scale of the ship, the people, and the terrible image of it rolling onto its side.
Quiet, eerie, and deeply strange, this short true paranormal story explores premonition, childhood memory, disaster, and the unsettling possibility that some dreams may arrive before the events they seem to show.

Wed, 15 Apr 2026 - 5min - 221 - The Witness Files - Case 01 - Waiting on the Other Side
Some stories aren’t built around fear.
They’re built around presence, memory, family, and the quiet hope that love may continue beyond death.
In this opening case from The Witness Files, Haunted UK Podcast shares Jenny’s deeply personal account of paranormal experiences spanning several generations. Her story moves from wartime London and whispered voices in a bedroom, to a former Bethnal Green fire station where unseen footsteps, missing objects, and the sound of an unknown man whistling became part of everyday family life.
At the heart of the case is Jenny’s father — a London fireman, a husband, a grandfather, and a man whose presence may have continued long after his passing. From a child’s sighting in a cathedral, to an impossible electronic game playing without batteries, to a medium’s message that revealed an old promise made between husband and wife, this is a witness account filled with grief, tenderness, and the possibility of reunion.
Atmospheric, intimate, and emotionally powerful, this episode explores family hauntings, after-death communication, inherited sensitivity, wartime memory, and the enduring question of whether those we love may still find ways to reach us from the other side.

Sat, 11 Apr 2026 - 24min - 220 - Fright Bites - EP00 - The Woman on the Path
A locked botanical garden.
A winter evening patrol.
An elderly woman walking slowly along the path… where no one should have been.
In this Fright Bites story from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares Connor Pilling’s unsettling account of an encounter that took place when he was thirteen years old. While helping his father, a security officer at a UK botanical garden, Connor joined the final sweep of the grounds after closing time — checking gates, paths, and clearings to make sure no visitors had been left behind.
Then their torchlight caught sight of an elderly woman ahead of them. She didn’t respond when they called out. She continued walking until she reached a bend in the path… and vanished.
What makes the account even more disturbing is what Connor learned later. His father and several colleagues had reportedly seen the same figure in the same grounds before. For Connor, the experience changed everything. The darkness he had never feared before suddenly felt occupied, uncertain, and alive with possibilities he could no longer dismiss.
Quiet, direct, and deeply unnerving, this short true paranormal story explores a repeated ghost sighting, childhood fear, haunted landscapes, and the moment a single encounter can permanently alter the way someone sees the world.

Wed, 08 Apr 2026 - 4min - 219 - S08-E01 - Near Death Experiences
A tunnel.
A brilliant light.
A familiar voice saying it isn’t time.
For generations, people who have come close to death have returned with stories that seem to follow a strangely familiar pattern — leaving the body, moving toward light, encountering loved ones, and feeling an overwhelming sense of peace.
In this first part of Haunted UK Podcast’s exploration of near-death experiences, Steve examines extraordinary accounts from those who stood at the boundary between life and death. From Jeanette Atkinson’s hospital-bed encounter with a grandmother she barely remembered, to neurosurgeon Eben Alexander’s vivid journey during a devastating coma, and Christina Stein’s account of watching surgeons fight to save her life after a catastrophic road accident, these stories raise profound questions about consciousness, memory, survival, and what may wait beyond the final moments of life.
The episode also travels to the Cairngorms, where Jackie Greaves endured a brutal mountain survival ordeal after a fall in white-out conditions, guided by strange lights and impossible visions that may have helped keep her alive.
Blending witness testimony, medical mystery, scientific theory, and the enduring hope of an afterlife, this atmospheric documentary episode explores whether near-death experiences are the final dream of a dying brain — or a glimpse of something far beyond it.

Sat, 04 Apr 2026 - 1h 08min - 218 - Tour Haunts – Leeds - Part 2
A Victorian music hall where figures still linger backstage.
An old dispensary where footsteps, children’s voices, and the scent of smoke are said to remain.
A ruined abbey where monks, grief, and legend still move through the stone.
In this second part of Tour Haunts: Leeds, Haunted UK Podcast continues its atmospheric journey through some of the city’s most haunted and historically charged locations. Beginning at the City Varieties Music Hall, Steve explores stories of the White Lady, a silent man in a bowler hat, unexplained footsteps, strange cold spots, and a darker poltergeist presence said to have disturbed staff, performers, and even renovation workers.
The route then moves to the Old Leeds Dispensary, a former medical building shaped by sickness, poverty, and the realities of pre-NHS healthcare. There, accounts speak of a well-dressed figure drifting through corridors, the sounds of unseen children, moving toys, and the unsettling apparition of a nurse linked by witnesses to smoke, heat, and fire.
Finally, the tour ends among the ruins of Kirkstall Abbey, where centuries of religious devotion, dissolution, folklore, and ghostly testimony gather around the chapter house, the Sombre Monk, the Mad Monk, and the grieving figure of Mary. With reports of chanting, shadowy forms, strange voices, and the lingering atmosphere of a sacred place disturbed by history, the abbey offers a final, powerful stop on this haunted journey through Leeds.
Immersive, historical, and quietly eerie, this episode blends haunted locations, local folklore, paranormal testimony, and architectural history into a cinematic guide to the unexplained side of one of Yorkshire’s great cities.

Thu, 02 Apr 2026 - 17min - 217 - Tour Haunts – Leeds - Part 1
A Tudor-Jacobean mansion marked by tragedy.
A vast industrial mill where footsteps still echo through empty rooms.
A former workhouse where the past seems to move quietly behind the walls.
In this first part of Tour Haunts: Leeds, Haunted UK Podcast begins an atmospheric journey through some of the city’s most haunted and historically charged locations. The route opens at Temple Newsam, one of Leeds’ most famous historic houses, where the stories of Lady Mary Ingram, the Blue Lady, and Phoebe Gray still linger in corridors, staircases, cellars, and rooms said to hold the emotional weight of the past.
From there, the tour moves to Armley Mills, once the largest woollen mill in the world and now home to the Leeds Industrial Museum. Within its heavy stone walls are reports of a grieving Victorian woman near the looms, a foreman-like figure in a top hat and cape, the cries of unseen children, and a darker presence said to haunt the old cinema room.
The final stop in this first chapter is the Thackray Museum of Medicine, housed in a building that once served as the Leeds Union Workhouse. With its history of poverty, illness, medical care, and human suffering, the site has become associated with apparitions, footsteps, whispers, cold spots, and the unsettling sense that some former patients and staff may never have fully left.
Immersive, historical, and quietly eerie, this episode blends haunted places, local folklore, witness accounts, and Leeds’ industrial and social history into a cinematic tour of a city where the past still feels close enough to touch.

Wed, 01 Apr 2026 - 16min - 216 - Haunted UK Abroad - Mysterious & Haunted Islands
Islands often promise escape.
Sunlight, sea air, hidden beaches, and the feeling of being far from the ordinary world.
But some islands carry stories that are far older, stranger, and darker than the postcards suggest.
In this Haunted UK Abroad episode, Steve travels beyond Britain to explore mysterious and haunted islands around the world — places shaped by folklore, tragedy, isolation, strange disappearances, and deeply unsettling legends. From the ghost of Catalina Lercaro in Tenerife and the vanishing island of San Borondon, to the plague pits and abandoned asylum of Poveglia, these stories reveal how paradise can become something far more disturbing when history is left to decay.
The journey continues through Cemetery Island in South Carolina, the shipwreck-haunted sands of Sable Island, the forbidden shores of North Sentinel Island, and the otherworldly landscape of Socotra, where dragon’s blood trees, Jinn legends, and lost civilisations blur the line between natural wonder and myth.
The episode also explores the haunted castles and ghost stories of the Thousand Islands, before ending at the remote Palmyra Atoll — a place associated with shipwrecks, vanished aircraft, murder, buried treasure, and a reputation for hostility that some visitors have described as almost impossible to explain.
Atmospheric, wide-ranging, and quietly unsettling, this episode blends haunted travel, island folklore, historical tragedy, cryptic legends, and true unexplained stories into a global journey through places where beauty and darkness share the same shore.

Sat, 28 Mar 2026 - 53min - 215 - Haunted UK Abroad - Haunted Hotels Around the World
A hotel room should be a place of rest.
A temporary home, a locked door, a quiet corridor, and the comforting feeling that whatever waits outside belongs to the world beyond your room.
But some guests check in… and discover they may not be alone.
In this Haunted UK Abroad episode, Steve explores haunted hotels around the world — from historic inns and castle hotels to grand resorts, former fortresses, luxury landmarks, and even a retired ocean liner. These are places where footsteps cross empty floors, lights flicker in locked rooms, unseen hands pull at bedsheets, and figures from the past still seem to move through the corridors.
The journey begins in Salem, Massachusetts, at the Hawthorne Hotel, where unexplained voices, ghostly touch, moving objects, and the scent of apples are said to linger. From there, the episode travels to South Africa’s Nottingham Road Hotel, Florence’s Hotel Burchianti, Canada’s Fairmont Banff Springs, and Colorado’s Stanley Hotel — the inspiration behind Stephen King’s The Shining.
Along the way, Steve uncovers stories of tragic brides, loyal bellmen, ghostly chambermaids, haunted portraits, restless miners, Hollywood apparitions, castle prisoners, unexplained elevator activity, and rooms where former guests appear to have never fully left. From The Queen Mary in California to Dragsholm Castle in Denmark, Hotel Chelsea in New York, and the Jekyll Island Club in Georgia, these locations suggest that hotels may be uniquely suited to hauntings — places shaped by arrivals, departures, secrets, grief, glamour, and unfinished stories.
Atmospheric, wide-ranging, and quietly unsettling, this episode blends haunted travel, paranormal folklore, historical tragedy, and ghostly testimony into a global tour of the rooms, corridors, staircases, and suites where the past still seems to have a key.

Wed, 25 Mar 2026 - 42min - 214 - Haunted UK Abroad - Ghostly Tales & Legends of Quebec - Part 2
In Quebec, folklore doesn’t sit quietly in the past.
It lingers in cemeteries, convent corridors, mountain trails, waterfalls, and the old stories passed from one generation to the next.
Some legends warn. Some remember. Others refuse to die.
In this Haunted UK Abroad episode, Steve continues the journey through the ghostly tales and legends of Quebec — a province shaped by survival, faith, conflict, isolation, and centuries of French-Canadian storytelling. The episode begins with the infamous story of Marie-Josephte Corriveau, known as La Corriveau, whose execution in 1763 and posthumous display in an iron cage transformed a real woman into one of Quebec’s most enduring supernatural figures.
From there, the episode explores the Loup-Garou, Quebec’s distinctive werewolf legend, alongside the eerie Feu Follet lights, Wendigo folklore, haunted cemeteries, ghostly convents, and the tragic Lady in White of Montmorency Falls. The journey also moves through places where history and the unexplained seem tightly bound together, including Mount Royal Cemetery, Chateau Frontenac, Mount Saint-Hilaire, the Grey Nuns’ Convent, and Montreal’s old Horse Palace.
The episode closes with a first-hand account from a listener who worked night shifts in a Quebec City convent in the 1990s, caring for elderly nuns in a building where unseen voices, opened curtains, call bells, singing in empty rooms, and a disturbing story from the convent garden left questions that have never been answered.
Atmospheric, folkloric, and deeply rooted in place, this episode blends haunted history, French-Canadian legend, witness testimony, religious tradition, and unexplained encounters into a journey through one of Canada’s most mysterious cultural landscapes.

Sat, 21 Mar 2026 - 46min - 213 - Haunted UK Abroad - Ghostly Tales & Legends of Quebec - Part 1
Quebec is a place where history and folklore have never been far apart.
Across its forests, rivers, battlefields, villages, and lakes, old stories still move through the landscape — carried by generations of storytellers, shaped by faith, fear, warning, and wonder.
In this Haunted UK Abroad episode, Steve begins a journey through the ghostly tales and legends of Quebec, exploring the French-Canadian folklore that grew from early settler life, Indigenous tradition, religious belief, and the dangers of a harsh and mysterious land.
The episode opens with La Chasse-Galerie, Quebec’s famous legend of the flying canoe, in which a group of lumberjacks make a dangerous New Year’s Eve bargain with the devil. From there, the story moves into darker territory with Bonhomme Sept-Heures, the terrifying Seven O’Clock Man used to warn children away from the night, before turning to the cursed history of the Quebec Bridge, the haunted battlefield of the Plains of Abraham, and the deeply unsettling paranormal reputation of Montreal’s Chateau Ramezay.
This first part also explores strange newspaper accounts of revenants, the alleged possession of Gabrielle in Saint-Irénée, the skeletal horrors of Lake of the Tombs, the forest-dwelling Jacks Mistigris, the sirens of the Gulf of St Lawrence, and the lake monsters said to inhabit Quebec’s dark inland waters.
Atmospheric, folkloric, and rich with haunted history, this episode blends ghost stories, moral legends, creature lore, battlefield hauntings, and unexplained phenomena into a journey through one of Canada’s most storied and mysterious provinces.

Wed, 18 Mar 2026 - 42min - 212 - Haunted UK Abroad - Gilded Age Ghosts of the Berkshires
In the hills of Massachusetts, the grand summer homes of America’s Gilded Age still stand among forests, gardens, waterfalls, and quiet country roads.
But behind the elegance of the Berkshire Cottages, something older and stranger seems to remain.
In this Haunted UK Abroad episode, Steve explores the ghosts, mysteries, legends, and unexplained encounters of the Berkshires — a region once shaped by immense wealth, lavish estates, artistic ambition, industrial danger, and stories that refuse to fade.
The journey begins at Ventfort Hall, a vast mansion linked to the Morgan and Vanderbilt families, where footsteps, perfume, whispers, and apparitions are said to linger in its restored rooms. From there, the episode moves to Naumkeag, where ghostly cigar smoke, screams, garden apparitions, and a headless figure on the staircase add a darker edge to one of the region’s most beautiful estates.
Beyond the mansions, the Berkshires hold deeper shadows. The Hoosac Tunnel, known as “The Bloody Pit”, carries the memory of nearly 200 workers who died during its construction, with reports of blue lights, disembodied moans, ghostly miners, and a headless apparition deep beneath the mountain. At Bash Bish Falls, old Mohican legend speaks of loss, punishment, and figures seen behind the falling water, while October Mountain brings accounts of Bigfoot, strange creatures, ghosts, and UFO activity.
The episode also explores the famous 1969 Sheffield UFO encounters, the alleged Egyptian curse of Ashintully, the haunted legacy of Edith Wharton’s estate, The Mount, and the strange possibility that some places attract the unexplained through layers of grief, history, fear, and memory.
Atmospheric, historical, and quietly unsettling, this episode blends Gilded Age history, haunted estates, cryptid sightings, UFO testimony, local folklore, and paranormal mystery into a cinematic journey through one of New England’s most intriguing landscapes.

Sat, 14 Mar 2026 - 42min - 211 - Haunted UK Abroad - Whispers Beneath the Frozen Veil of Antarctica
At the bottom of the world lies a continent of silence, ice, and impossible scale.
Antarctica is remote, restricted, and almost entirely unreachable to ordinary life — a place where science, survival, secrecy, and speculation have long existed side by side.
In this Haunted UK Abroad episode, Steve journeys into the mysteries and legends surrounding the frozen continent, exploring the stories that have gathered around one of the most isolated places on Earth. From ancient maps such as the Piri Reis chart and the long-standing fascination with lost civilizations, to the Antarctic Treaty, restricted access, and the strange mythology of what may lie hidden beneath the ice, this is a landscape where fact and imagination often blur.
The episode also examines Operation Highjump, Admiral Richard E. Byrd’s vast 1946–47 polar expedition, and the extraordinary rumours that later grew around it — tales of hidden valleys, secret technology, subterranean worlds, and encounters that exist far outside the official record. From there, the story moves through UFO lore, Albert Bender and the Men in Black, claims of underground Antarctic bases, ancient viruses trapped in ice, modern scientific anomalies, and the unsettling disappearance of a Chilean military aircraft en route to King George Island.
Atmospheric, speculative, and grounded in the eerie power of place, this episode explores Antarctica not as a simple conspiracy landscape, but as a symbol of the unknown: a frontier where science has made extraordinary discoveries, yet where the continent’s silence still leaves room for rumours, legends, and questions that refuse to disappear.

Wed, 11 Mar 2026 - 30min - 210 - S07-E10 - The Green Light & Other Listeners’ Stories - Part 4
Three colleagues wake in the dark to the sound of a guesthouse door opening.
Something moves around the room.
Then a tiny green light appears at shoulder height… and every man sees it.
In this final listener stories episode of the season, Haunted UK Podcast brings together a chilling collection of real paranormal accounts, ranging from haunted family homes and possible time slips to childhood apparitions, shadow figures, spirit animals, haunted pubs, unsettling dolls, and strange encounters in places with darker histories than anyone first realised.
Among the stories are Karen’s account of a “limbo dancing” figure later connected to a vanished staircase, Em’s lifelong experiences with presences, black dogs, shadow forms, and the lingering spirit of a beloved border collie, and Becky’s encounters with the Hat Man, phantom customers, a ghostly chef, and a boy seen beneath the stairs in a house in France.
The episode also includes reports of a blind child describing a little boy in a former hospital building, a Christmas Eve apparition believed to be a mother returning for her child, a possible firsthand connection to the Enfield Poltergeist, and Ryan’s investigations using spirit boxes, EMF responses, and the Estes method.
But the final story gives the episode its name: a work trip, an old guesthouse, a shared room, and a green light that may have marked the presence of a murdered policeman still carrying out his patrol decades later.
Atmospheric, varied, and deeply personal, this listener-led episode closes the season with true paranormal stories that explore memory, family, haunted buildings, residual echoes, spiritual encounters, and the moments when ordinary life is quietly interrupted by the unexplained.

Sat, 07 Mar 2026 - 51min - 209 - Haunted UK On the Road - Oxford Castle & Prison After Dark
The public have gone.
The doors are closed.
And inside the ancient walls of Oxford Castle & Prison, the silence begins to change.
In this atmospheric location episode, Haunted UK Podcast visits one of Britain’s most historically charged sites: Oxford Castle & Prison. On 6 September 2025, Steve was granted exclusive access to the building after hours, following interviews with members of the team who know its corridors, cells, stairways, and shadows better than anyone.
With nearly a thousand years of history behind it, Oxford Castle & Prison has been a fortress, a prison, a place of punishment, and a place of execution. But for some of those who work there today, its past doesn’t feel entirely confined to history. Staff share calm, firsthand accounts of unexplained moments within the building — experiences that are not exaggerated, but quietly unsettling in the way only real testimony can be.
The episode features conversations with Kesia and Hayley Vice, along with other members of staff who describe strange incidents inside the prison walls, before Steve is taken on a personal after-hours tour through the empty site. As darkness falls and the building settles into silence, the episode becomes more than a historical visit. It becomes a journey through a place that seems to remember.
Immersive, grounded, and deeply atmospheric, this Haunted UK Podcast special blends location investigation, staff testimony, prison history, and the lingering presence of one of Oxford’s most remarkable haunted landmarks.

Wed, 04 Mar 2026 - 1h 11min - 208 - The Witness Files - Case 00 - Not All Ghosts Are Scary
Not every ghost story begins with fear.
Some arrive quietly, gently, and with a tenderness that changes how we think about death, grief, and the people we love.
In this opening case from The Witness Files, Haunted UK Podcast shares Richard Barnes’ deeply personal account of a moment that stayed with him for more than a decade. After the death of his uncle Wally, Richard travelled with his mother to East Yorkshire to support his grieving aunt. The house was heavy with loss, the evening subdued, and two exhausted relatives had drifted off to sleep in front of the television.
Then Richard saw something he had never expected to see.
His uncle appeared in the lounge, not as something frightening or dramatic, but as a faint, shimmering figure. He walked across the room, sat beside his heartbroken wife, and gently put his arms around her before fading away.
Quiet, intimate, and deeply moving, this witness account explores after-death communication, grief, family love, and the possibility that some encounters are not warnings or hauntings, but final acts of comfort from those who have gone ahead.

Mon, 02 Mar 2026 - 9min - 207 - Short Haunts - The Ghosts of Sarah and Gladys
A retired police officer.
Two old police stations.
And the names staff gave to whatever seemed to linger there.
In this Short Haunts episode from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares the account of Jon Williams, a former police officer whose career included military service, specialist policing roles, and disaster victim identification work. A sceptic by nature, Jon doesn’t claim to believe in ghosts — but some experiences from his time in Gwent Police have stayed with him.
At Chepstow Police Station, built on the site of an old pub dating back to the 17th century, colleagues spoke of a presence known as Sarah. One night, an officer saw a woman in Victorian dress pass the kitchen window before vanishing inside the locked building. On another occasion, Jon heard a woman’s voice answer him from upstairs when no one was there. Then, in a moment harder to dismiss, a missing work folio appeared in the middle of his paperwork while he was briefly out of the room.
The account then moves to Monmouth Police Station, an older building with its own named presence: Gladys. There, loud unexplained noises, footsteps, crashes, and what sounded like movement on the upper floors became familiar enough that staff would call out to her — and, strangely, the noises would often stop.
Quietly eerie and grounded in firsthand testimony, this episode explores police station hauntings, workplace folklore, scepticism, residual activity, and the strange way certain buildings seem to gather names, stories, and presences over time.

Sat, 28 Feb 2026 - 22min - 206 - S07-E10 - Seth in the Closet & Other Listeners’ Stories - Part 3
An old farmhouse.
A name spoken aloud.
A closet door opening by itself.
And by morning… someone wakes inside it.
In this third listener stories collection from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares another unsettling range of true paranormal accounts sent in by listeners. These stories move from haunted family homes and childhood apparitions to doppelgängers, spirit signs, battlefield ghosts, unsettling objects, and encounters that seem to sit somewhere between memory, grief, and the unexplained.
The episode begins with a disturbing account from Exeter, where nightly events at 3am, marks on the body, strange lights, phantom footsteps, and a possible wartime presence left one family deeply shaken. From there, the stories explore a grandfather who may have continued visiting after death, a hand felt in the darkness, a father’s impossible double, and strange signs connected to departed loved ones.
Among the accounts are John’s family experiences with falling light bulbs and hidden money, Matt’s childhood encounter with a mischievous young spirit named Alvin, Nigel’s daytime footsteps in a Kent home, and Polly’s deeply troubling account of a cursed family book connected to dark history and spiritual disturbance.
The episode closes with Sherrie’s experiences in New York State, including revolutionary war spirits, haunted battlefield landscapes, animal visitations, and the chilling story that gives the episode its title: Seth in the Closet — a presence in an old farmhouse whose name was known, whose door opened, and whose mystery remained.
Atmospheric, varied, and deeply personal, this listener-led episode explores true paranormal stories, haunted homes, family spirits, doppelgängers, historic hauntings, and the strange moments when ordinary life opens onto something far harder to explain.

Sat, 21 Feb 2026 - 52min - 205 - Short Haunts - After Hours
An office building after dark.
Grey carpets, glass panels, motion-sensor lights, and the kind of silence that only arrives once everyone else has gone home.
But silence doesn’t always mean emptiness.
In this Short Haunts episode from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares the unsettling account of a contract cleaner working alone on the late shift in a modern office building in the Midlands. At first, there was nothing about the place that suggested anything unusual. It wasn’t ancient, ruined, or atmospheric in the traditional sense. It was ordinary. Functional. Familiar.
Then the vacuum cleaner switched itself on while unplugged.
After that, small things began to happen. A cloth moved from a desk to the floor. A caution sign scraped across the corridor. Three deliberate knocks came from inside a closed kitchen cupboard. Footsteps followed behind the cleaner, matching their pace — until one night, they carried on after they had stopped.
Quiet, restrained, and deeply unnerving, this short true paranormal story explores the strange unease of empty workplaces, possible poltergeist activity, and the feeling that some buildings may only reveal themselves once the lights go out and the working day is over.

Sat, 14 Feb 2026 - 10min - 204 - Haunted UK On the Road - Return to Dudley Castle - Part 3
The interviews are over.
The stories have been told.
Now it’s time to step into the places where they happened.
In this final part of Steve’s return to Dudley Castle, Haunted UK Podcast moves out onto the castle grounds with Amy, the site’s paranormal host and historian, for an atmospheric location-led tour through one of the Midlands’ most historic and haunted landmarks.
After exploring the castle’s long, brutal history in part one, and its ghosts, legends, and strange happenings in part two, this closing episode brings the series directly into the spaces most closely linked to reported paranormal activity. From shadowed corners and ancient stonework to open areas that seem to hold centuries of memory, Amy guides Steve through the locations where the stories of Dudley Castle truly come to life.
Grounded, immersive, and rich with atmosphere, this episode blends on-location investigation, historic storytelling, staff knowledge, and ghostly tradition into a final journey through a place where the past still feels close enough to touch.

Sun, 08 Feb 2026 - 48min - 203 - Haunted UK On the Road - Return To Dudley Castle - Part 2
The history has been set.
The people who shaped Dudley Castle have stepped back into view.
Now the stories move into darker territory.
In part two of Steve’s return to Dudley Castle, Haunted UK Podcast continues the on-location interview with Amy, the castle’s paranormal host and historian. After exploring the long and often brutal history of the site in part one, this episode turns more directly toward the ghosts, legends, and unexplained experiences that have helped make Dudley Castle one of the Midlands’ most atmospheric haunted landmarks.
From recurring apparitions and strange encounters to ongoing activity reported by staff, visitors, and investigators, Amy shares the stories most closely tied to the castle’s paranormal reputation. These are the moments that make even experienced people pause — footsteps where no one is walking, presences felt in quiet spaces, and accounts that seem to echo through the stone long after the living have moved on.
Immersive, grounded, and quietly unsettling, this episode blends historic atmosphere, firsthand knowledge, ghostly tradition, and paranormal testimony into a deeper look at the strange activity said to linger within Dudley Castle.

Sat, 07 Feb 2026 - 50min - 202 - Haunted UK On the Road - Return To Dudley Castle - Part 1
Before a place becomes haunted, it has to become historic.
And at Dudley Castle, that history stretches back nearly a thousand years.
Recorded on location in September 2025, this first part of Steve’s return to Dudley Castle begins with an in-depth interview with Amy, the castle’s paranormal host and historian. Together, they explore the long, dramatic, and often brutal story of one of the Midlands’ most fascinating historic landmarks.
In this opening episode, the focus is on the people, power struggles, conflicts, and remarkable events that shaped Dudley Castle across the centuries. From its ancient walls and surviving ruins to the lives once lived within them, this is the foundation on which the castle’s ghostly reputation rests.
While the deeper hauntings are still to come in parts two and three, part one begins to open the door to the strange atmosphere of the site, with a few ghostly stories woven through the history as the past slowly begins to stir.
Grounded, atmospheric, and rich with historical detail, this episode sets the scene for a three-part Haunted UK Podcast journey into Dudley Castle — a place where history, legend, and the unexplained stand side by side.

Fri, 06 Feb 2026 - 49min - 201 - S07-E10 - The Ghost Within & Other Listeners’ Stories - Part 2
A whisper in a care home.
A clock that stops every night at four.
A figure in the hallway with empty eyes.
And a haunting that may have come from somewhere far closer than expected.
In this second collection of listener stories from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares another unsettling set of real paranormal experiences, ranging from childhood encounters and care home hauntings to strange family warnings, apparitions, moving objects, possible spirit attachments, and unexplained moments that continue to trouble those who lived through them.
The episode begins with Alana’s terrifying work experience in a care home, where residents had long spoken of a troublesome little boy named Timmy. A whispered warning, a figure with white eyes, crying from an empty floor, and a door that refused to open left her shaken enough never to return.
Other accounts include a family clock that stops at the exact time of death, a life-saving voice on a country road, a strange warning before the 7 July London bombings, and a house where a mist-like child figure, thrown objects, footsteps, cold breezes, and disturbing responses suggest something may be deeply active.
The episode also features stories from care work, possible deathbed visitations, time-slip-style premonition, and the return of Sam, whose vivid dream in Melbourne appeared to show events before they happened.
But the closing account gives the episode its name. Robert Ensor shares his deeply personal experience of what he first believed to be poltergeist activity — strange noises, crawling sensations, smells, movement, fear, and apparent disturbances — before developing his own interpretation of the phenomena as something generated not by an external ghost, but by the mind itself.
Atmospheric, varied, and thought-provoking, this listener-led episode explores true paranormal stories, care home ghosts, family warnings, strange entities, possible poltergeist activity, and the uneasy question of whether some hauntings may begin within us.

Sat, 31 Jan 2026 - 54min - 200 - Short Haunts - The Presence in Theatre Three
Hospitals are places of life, loss, pressure, and silence.
Behind the controlled routines of operating theatres, something unseen can feel very close.
And in Theatre Three, staff had already given it a name: the presence.
In this Short Haunts episode from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares Victoria’s unsettling account from a hospital theatre department in Derbyshire. Once a firm sceptic, Victoria began to question that certainty after hearing colleagues describe strange activity in Theatre Three — sterile gowns thrown from shelves, voices calling names, and a presence so widely felt that cleaning staff avoided working there alone.
Then Victoria experienced it herself. First came a voice clearly calling her name in a full operating theatre, though no one present had spoken. Later, while alone with a colleague, she felt what seemed like a finger stroke the back of her neck — only to turn and find no one close enough to have touched her.
But the story doesn’t end inside the hospital. Victoria also shares the deeply emotional account of her partner Miles, who was left critically injured after a serious car accident shortly after returning from America. As he lay in intensive care, a chain of strange coincidences, unexpected cancellations, family grief, rosary beads, and a message from an unknown woman in Lincolnshire seemed to suggest that someone — perhaps his grandmother Betty, whose full name was Elizabeth — was watching over him when his loved ones could not.
Quietly eerie, emotional, and deeply human, this Short Haunts story explores hospital hauntings, unseen presences, family protection, impossible messages, and the fragile moments when the line between coincidence and comfort becomes almost impossible to define.

Sat, 24 Jan 2026 - 22min - 199 - S07-E10 - My Father, The Sparrow & Other Listeners’ Stories - Part 1
A father in his final days.
A white light he was afraid to face.
And outside the hospice room, a small injured sparrow that would not leave.
In this first listener stories collection of the season, Haunted UK Podcast opens the archive once again to share real paranormal experiences from listeners. These accounts move from childhood spirit encounters and mediumistic impressions to haunted workplaces, ghostly footsteps, premonitions, and signs from loved ones that seem to arrive at the moments they’re needed most.
The episode begins with Dave from Dorset, whose experiences include seeing his grandfather after death, a motorway accident that appeared first in a dream, and a strange farewell connected to a former quarry worker. From there, Steve shares accounts from Sam Ingram, whose library workplace seems to have its own presence, known by staff as Hazel — a figure associated with moving books, phantom doors, vanished belongings, and sightings among the shelves.
Other stories include footsteps in a Louisiana home after the death of a local judge, an Oxfordshire haunting involving disembodied voices, rasping breath, unexplained lights, and a child’s toy playing without working batteries, and a deeply moving possible message from the other side after the passing of a beloved grandmother.
But the final account gives the episode its name. Mark Ashby shares the heartbreaking story of his father Phillip’s final days in hospice care, the white light he feared, the possible presence of his own mother waiting nearby, and the injured sparrow that remained outside his room until the moment he passed.
Tender, unsettling, and deeply human, this listener-led episode explores true paranormal stories, after-death communication, family grief, workplace hauntings, premonitions, spirit signs, and the fragile hope that something of love may remain after death.

Sat, 17 Jan 2026 - 47min - 198 - Short Haunts - A Life of Haunting Experiences
Some people pass through life without ever seeing anything strange.
Others seem to encounter the unexplained again and again, across different homes, different jobs, different places, and different stages of life.
In this Short Haunts episode from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares the anonymous account of a former Royal Army Medical Corps combat medic who later spent eighteen years working in a large ambulance service. From childhood encounters in a police house to unsettling incidents on an old military base, a 1930s family home, an ambulance station, and even the back of an emergency vehicle during lockdown, his experiences seem to follow him through life.
As a child, he was said to stare at unseen figures and speak to someone no one else could see. Later, his mother returned home more than once to find kitchen cupboards emptied without explanation. Years after that, both he and his wife woke to the feeling of something sitting on the bed — with his wife seeing a woman in white seated silently at the end of it.
The account moves from home to military service, where an old RAF control tower carried reports of icy rooms, strange noises, and lights switching themselves back on after dark. Later, in civilian life, a family home brought unexplained smells, moving shadows, and a cat apparently frightened by something unseen. Then came the ambulance station: scraping noises in an empty garage, a clinical waste bin dragged across the floor with its brakes still locked, and another crew member reporting the sensation of breath blown into their face.
Quietly disturbing and deeply atmospheric, this episode explores the idea of a lifelong sensitivity to the paranormal — whether certain people act as witnesses, magnets, or something stranger still when the unseen seems to follow them from place to place.

Sat, 10 Jan 2026 - 21min - 197 - S07-E09 - Witchcraft, Wonder & The Unexplained
A clearing in the woods that shouldn’t have been there.
A porcelain doll that seemed to move on its own.
A haunted school bathroom, a disappearing house, shadow figures, time slips, doppelgängers, and encounters with the dead.
In this deeply personal episode of Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares the extraordinary experiences of Katie, an eclectic witch now living in Dublin, whose life has been shaped by magic, sensitivity, spirit contact, and the unexplained. Raised in the Bible Belt of Alabama, Katie grew up surrounded by strict religious ideas while quietly sensing, seeing, and knowing things she couldn’t easily explain.
Her story moves through childhood encounters in haunted woods, strange loops in the landscape, a clearing filled with shadow figures, and the unsettling possibility that something in the forest tried to keep her and her friend from leaving. From there, Katie recounts a disturbing family doll, a ghostly girl in a school bathroom, an abandoned cottage that later vanished, a face at a second-floor window, spirit activity in restaurants and hotels, and vivid experiences in some of the most haunted places in Savannah, Edinburgh, and Dublin.
The episode also explores Katie’s modern witchcraft practice, her connection to ancestor veneration, nature spirits, sacred Irish sites, familiars, tulpas, time slips at the Hill of Tara, and the strange phenomenon of doppelgängers appearing in her life.
Atmospheric, intimate, and full of strange detail, this episode blends witchcraft, folklore, personal testimony, haunted places, spirit encounters, and the uneasy sense that some people may live closer to the unseen world than others.

Sat, 03 Jan 2026 - 1h 07min - 195 - Short Haunts - The Police and the Monk
A quiet road in the early hours.
Two armed police officers returning from a call.
And a hooded figure standing in the lane ahead.
In this Short Haunts episode from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares another account from retired police officer Jon Williams, whose career included military service, armed response, road policing, and years of dealing with the harder realities of life and death. Jon does not claim to believe in ghosts — but this experience, involving a close colleague on a dark road near Abergavenny, left him with questions he still cannot fully answer.
While driving through the village of Llanover at around 4:30 in the morning, Jon’s colleague suddenly shouted for him to stop, convinced they had just struck a man standing in the road. But when Jon got out to check, there was no body, no damage, no blood, and no sign of anyone at all.
His colleague described the figure as a man in a long brown hooded cloak, standing near the centre of the road like a monk. When they returned to the same stretch of road moments later, Jon saw nothing — but his colleague reacted with genuine fear, insisting the figure was now right beside Jon’s window. What followed was a sudden wave of sadness, guilt, regret, and anger that seemed to overwhelm him until they left the village behind.
Grounded, unsettling, and told through the lens of a sceptical witness, this short true paranormal story explores roadside apparitions, phantom monks, police testimony, emotional impressions, and the strange question of why one person can see something clearly while another sees nothing at all.

Sat, 27 Dec 2025 - 18min - 191 - Talk Haunts - Gary Numan - Monsters in the Machine
Electronic music has always carried something ghostly.
A voice through circuitry.
A machine that seems almost alive.
A sound that feels as though it’s arriving from somewhere just beyond the room.
In this Talk Haunts Christmas Special, Haunted UK Podcast sits down with Gary Numan — one of the most influential figures in electronic music — for a conversation about creativity, fear, atmosphere, haunted spaces, and the strange ideas that have helped shape his work.
Taking a break from rehearsals for his UK Telekon 45th anniversary tour, Gary joins Steve and Marie to discuss his iconic career, songwriting, the ghosts and darker themes that have influenced his music, and the unsettling possibilities behind the idea of monsters in the machine.
From era-defining tracks such as Cars and Are “Friends” Electric? to later albums including Splinter, Savage, and Intruder, this special episode explores the meeting point between music, memory, machinery, hauntings, and the imagination of an artist whose sound has always felt both futuristic and deeply human.
Atmospheric, thoughtful, and intimate, this Christmas edition of Talk Haunts offers a rare conversation about the supernatural edge of creativity — and the strange shadows that can live inside sound.

Sun, 21 Dec 2025 - 1h 25min - 190 - S07-E08 - The Hauntings of Flitwick Manor and Himley Hall
Old manor houses have a way of holding onto the past.
Behind their landscaped grounds, quiet corridors, hidden rooms, and polished public faces, something older can remain — something disturbed by renovation, memory, grief, or time itself.
In this atmospheric episode of Haunted UK Podcast, Steve visits the haunted histories of two remarkable English properties: Flitwick Manor in Bedfordshire and Himley Hall in Staffordshire. Both are places shaped by centuries of family life, social change, private tragedy, and the uneasy transition from grand residence to public venue.
At Flitwick Manor, the story begins with a mysterious hidden room discovered during roofing renovations in the 1990s. Behind brickwork and tiles, builders found a small doorway, a staircase, and a forgotten space with no visible access from inside the house. Soon after, staff and guests began reporting a change in the atmosphere — followed by apparitions, footsteps, strange lights, objects moving, unexplained noises, and the figure of a woman seen in guest rooms and corridors.
The episode then moves to Himley Hall, once home to the Lords of Dudley and later linked to Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson shortly before the abdication. Its hauntings are rooted in Civil War history, local legend, and witness testimony: a ghostly Cavalier seen near the lake, a Grey Lady walking the grounds, a servant girl crossing the road where a gate once stood, and strange encounters with mist, knocking, shadows, and figures that vanish without trace.
Rich with stately home history, ghostly tradition, and unsettling witness accounts, this episode explores how places built for power, beauty, and inheritance can become something else entirely — houses where the past doesn’t simply survive in portraits and stone, but seems to move quietly through the rooms.

Sat, 20 Dec 2025 - 51min - 189 - Short Haunts - The Priest Room
A family holiday in Portugal should have meant sun, rest, and time away from ordinary life.
But inside one rented villa in the Algarve, one room seemed to change the atmosphere of the entire house.
In this Short Haunts episode from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares the anonymous account of “Nathan”, whose family holiday took a disturbing turn after arriving at a villa rented near his uncle’s property. At first, everything seemed ordinary: bedrooms, a private pool, a games room, and space for a large family gathering.
Then Nathan found the staircase leading down to the basement.
Behind heavy white metal grates was the games room, but the feeling around it was wrong — dark, oppressive, and watched. That same unease seemed to gather most strongly around one particular bedroom, later known by the family as “The Priest Room”. Nathan felt it immediately. His sister felt it too. Then his mother entered the room and experienced the same dread.
The door was closed and kept closed, but the fear didn’t entirely leave. Dreams of shadowy figures, cold air, the sound of a latch opening, and the sense of something waiting just out of sight turned an ordinary holiday villa into a place none of them could fully explain.
Quietly unsettling and deeply atmospheric, this short true paranormal story explores haunted holiday homes, shared feelings of dread, possible spirit attachment, and the strange way some rooms seem to carry an atmosphere that everyone can feel — even when no one knows why.

Sat, 13 Dec 2025 - 21min - 188 - S07-E07 - The Experiences of Gentleman Jim
Some people encounter the unexplained once.
Others seem to brush against it again and again, across decades, places, professions, and turning points in life.
In this deeply personal episode of Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares the extraordinary experiences of listener Jim Corbett — a thoughtful sceptic with a lifelong interest in ghosts, psychic phenomena, and the strange moments that resist easy explanation.
Jim’s accounts begin in childhood, with out-of-body sensations, the sound of children playing near the site of a wartime school tragedy, a Ouija board prediction linked to Concorde, and a mysterious woman seen near Highgate Cemetery. From there, his stories move through family homes, an attic room filled with phantom voices, a hotel near Canterbury Cathedral with its own poltergeist, and several unsettling incidents from his military years.
Those military accounts include a terrifying sensation on a dark training road at Crowborough, where Jim later learned a soldier was said to have died, shadowy SS figures and jackboot footsteps in a former barracks in Germany, and the ghostly routine of a former medical orderly still making rounds in an army sick bay.
The episode then enters the world of hospitals and the NHS, where Jim encountered a blue-dressed child in an old workhouse hospital, a mysterious priest who appeared to comfort grieving parents, phantom footsteps in locked areas, alarm bells ringing in empty rooms, and finally, a chilling account of a banshee heard in an Irish hospital as a patient lay dying.
Rich, varied, and grounded in Jim’s careful search for rational explanations, this episode explores ghosts, memory, war, hospitals, old buildings, residual hauntings, and the unsettling possibility that some lives gather stories simply by being close enough to notice them.

Sat, 06 Dec 2025 - 1h 19min - 185 - Short Haunts - Haunted Moves
Some people move into a house and feel nothing more than unfamiliar rooms and fresh beginnings.
Others feel something waiting.
A presence. A pressure. A warning at the edge of the senses.
In this Short Haunts episode from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares Joanne’s deeply personal account of a lifetime spent sensing the strange atmosphere of certain places — from National Trust properties in childhood to a series of homes across Britain that seemed to hold more than memory.
Joanne’s experiences begin with a physical sensation she has felt since childhood: a peculiar feeling up the neck and shoulder, often followed by stories of hauntings attached to the very rooms she had entered. Later, as she moved from the West Country to the Midlands, Scotland, the Southeast, Wales, and beyond, that sensitivity seemed to reveal itself in far more direct ways.
In Griffydam, Leicestershire, she saw the feet and legs of a figure standing behind her in the kitchen, only for there to be no one there. In Bosham, West Sussex, her dream home became a moody and threatening place of moving objects, open doors, mist, strange breath, frightened cats, and a darkness that seemed to change the atmosphere of the house itself. And in Cwmbran, after a difficult move during Covid, her young son saw figures in the house before Joanne encountered a woman in blue at the top of the stairs.
Quiet, reflective, and unsettling, this episode explores haunted homes, psychic sensitivity, moving house, family life, spirit communication, and the strange possibility that some people can sense what a building is holding long before anyone else knows it’s there.

Sat, 29 Nov 2025 - 30min - 184 - S07-E06 - The Ghosts of the Bell Hotel
A honeymoon suite in an old Norfolk hotel.
Footsteps in the corridor.
A young girl standing in the dark… and a story that would draw the attention of one of Britain’s most respected paranormal investigators.
In this atmospheric episode of Haunted UK Podcast, Steve explores the haunted history of The Bell Hotel in Thetford — a timber-framed building dating back to the late 15th century, surrounded by centuries of Norfolk history, local folklore, royal connections, religious upheaval, and ghostly testimony.
At the heart of the episode is the extraordinary case investigated by British parapsychologist Tony Cornell: a newlywed couple staying in Room 10 who repeatedly encountered the apparition of a young girl. What began with a cold spot and the feeling of something pushing against the bedroom door soon became something far stranger — footsteps inside the room, glowing light, physical disturbances, television static, a moving aerial lead, and the repeated appearance of a girl later linked to Betty Radcliffe, whose tragic story is said to be tied to the hotel.
The episode also explores further accounts from staff, guests, and investigators, including mist-like forms, icy atmospheres, a full-bodied woman in dark clothing, strange EMF activity, a torch apparently switching on by request, a chilling EVP, the ghost of a dog by the fireplace, children’s voices in locked rooms, and the darker presence of a monk-like figure connected to Thetford’s religious past.
Rich in witness testimony, historical atmosphere, and unsettling detail, this episode asks whether The Bell Hotel is truly one of Britain’s most haunted hotels — or whether centuries of tragedy, rumour, and expectation have made the building feel alive with the stories told inside it.

Sat, 22 Nov 2025 - 52min - 183 - Short Haunts - Strange Happenings at Dumbarton Road
A modern flat on Dumbarton Road.
A town scarred by wartime devastation.
And in the early hours of the morning, the sound of an air-raid siren where no siren should have been.
In this Short Haunts episode from Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares John McLellan’s strange and deeply personal account from Clydebank, a town forever marked by the terrible bombing raids of 13 and 14 March 1941. With family memories tied directly to the Clydebank Blitz, John’s story begins with history, trauma, survival, and the long shadow of those nights when the town was devastated from the air.
Decades later, John moved into a modern flat on Dumbarton Road, built on the site of Victorian tenements destroyed during the war. At first, the disturbances were small but unsettling: light bulbs removed from their fittings and placed beneath a coffee table, locked windows found wide open, money vanishing and reappearing in the kitchen bin, and the persistent feeling of being watched.
Then came the sound that made the past feel suddenly close. At around four in the morning, John and a friend both heard what seemed to be an air-raid siren outside the flat — loud, unmistakable, and impossible to explain. Later, after feeling what seemed like small paws or hands moving across his duvet, a tarot reader told him that the spirits of three children were connected to the flat and had been trying to make themselves known.
Quietly eerie and historically grounded, this short true paranormal story explores residual haunting, poltergeist-like activity, wartime memory, the Clydebank Blitz, and the possibility that even when buildings are destroyed and rebuilt, something of the people who once lived there may still remain.

Sat, 15 Nov 2025 - 17min - 182 - S07-E05 - The Stocksbridge Bypass
A five-mile stretch of road cut through old land.
A construction site where children were heard singing in the dark.
A monk-like figure seen by security guards, police officers, drivers, and witnesses who never forgot what crossed their path.
In this atmospheric episode of Haunted UK Podcast, Steve explores the chilling history and paranormal reputation of the Stocksbridge Bypass — often described as one of the most haunted roads in Britain. Built in the late 1980s to ease congestion around the South Yorkshire town of Stocksbridge, the bypass quickly became associated not only with accidents and fatalities, but with strange sightings that began before the road had even opened.
The episode begins with the now-famous accounts from security guards Stan and Geoff, who reported seeing ghostly children playing near an electricity pylon, followed by a hooded monk-like figure on an unfinished bridge. Their fear was so intense that they abandoned their shift, contacted their manager, reported the incident to police, and later sought help from the local church.
What followed made the case even stranger. Police Constables Richard Ellis and John Beet investigated the site themselves, only to experience a terrifying sequence of events: movement on the bridge, sudden drops in temperature, an unseen presence beside the patrol car, a robed figure at the window, unexplained impacts on the vehicle, and no footprints in the surrounding mud.
From there, the episode follows decades of further reports — drivers seeing faceless figures, apparitions leaping into the road, a monk appearing in rear-view mirrors and back seats, phantom children linked to local mining tragedy, and witnesses describing the same cold atmosphere and musty smell again and again.
Grounded in witness testimony, local history, folklore, and the eerie power of disturbed land, this episode asks whether the Stocksbridge Bypass is simply an accident blackspot wrapped in rumour — or whether something older was awakened when the road was carved through the hills.

Sat, 08 Nov 2025 - 57min - 181 - Haunted UK On the Road - Across the Board of Years - Part 2
The board had given them stories.
Romance. Tragedy. Spirits from the past.
Then the voices changed.
In this second part of Haunted UK Podcast’s Halloween Special, Steve continues Rachel’s deeply unsettling account of the Ouija board experiences that shaped her teenage years and followed her into adulthood. What had once seemed like strange but captivating spirit communication took a darker turn when the voices speaking through the board revealed that the stories they had told were not true — and that their intentions were something else entirely.
Rachel describes escalating paranormal activity, physical contact, shadow figures, nightmares, intrusive thoughts, and a terrifying episode she can only compare to being pushed out of her own mind. As the experience fractured her friendship with Lily and left her afraid to sleep, she turned back to the church, seeking protection from whatever she believed had come through.
Years later, the memories returned in unexpected ways: conversations with others who had used Ouija boards, a strange encounter with a magician, a powerful reaction inside a museum of witchcraft, and a disturbing church service that made her question the difference between spiritual experience, emotional manipulation, and something far harder to define.
Raw, intelligent, and deeply personal, this concluding Halloween episode explores Ouija boards, possession-like experiences, religious fear, psychology, trauma, scepticism, belief, and the difficult question of whether some doors, once opened, ever fully close.

Fri, 31 Oct 2025 - 43min - 180 - Haunted UK On the Road - Across the Board of Years - Part 1
A teenage fascination.
A handmade Ouija board.
And a voice from somewhere it was never safe to reach.
In this first part of Haunted UK Podcast’s Halloween Special, Steve travels to South Wales to meet Rachel, a witness whose experiences with Ouija boards, séances, religion, fear, and the unexplained left a lasting mark on her life.
Rachel’s story begins in childhood, with intense nightmares, disembodied faces, strange family stories, and the knowledge that her great-grandmother had once been a spiritualist medium. Raised in a churchgoing household, she grew up surrounded by ideas of angels, demons, spirits, sin, protection, and forbidden contact with the dead — ideas that would later become deeply tangled with her own search for answers.
At school, Rachel and her friend Lily became fascinated by homemade Ouija boards, candle sessions, and attempts to contact spirits. At first, it felt like curiosity, rebellion, and belonging. But as the board began to produce names, predictions, voices, and apparent messages, the obsession grew stronger. Exams slipped away, friendships shifted, and what had once felt like teenage experimentation began to take on a life of its own.
By the end of this first chapter, the activity has started to change. What began with questions and glass movements is moving toward something far darker — physical contact, strange voices, and the first signs that whatever was speaking through the board may not be what it claimed to be.
Atmospheric, intimate, and deeply unsettling, this opening Halloween episode explores Ouija boards, childhood fear, spiritualism, religious warning, teenage obsession, and the moment curiosity becomes something much harder to control.

Mon, 27 Oct 2025 - 3min - 176 - S07-E04 - Take Care, Caretaker
A community hall should feel familiar.
Stacked chairs, stage curtains, children’s parties, committee meetings, tea urns, and lights switched off at the end of the night.
But for Jan, the ordinary became something far darker.
In this listener-led episode of Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares Jan’s disturbing account from a community centre in the northwest of England — a building that seemed, at first, completely unremarkable. After recovering from a major heart attack and stepping away from office work, Jan took a part-time role as cleaner and caretaker, hoping to feel useful, valued, and involved again.
What began as light cleaning after parties soon became a series of increasingly strange experiences: doors banging in an empty locked building, a toy pushchair moving across the hall by itself, cold and oppressive atmospheres, voices, footsteps, objects shifting, and the repeated appearance of something connected to the building’s past.
Other staff had their own stories. A man in an old-fashioned suit had been seen near the stage, a possible former headmaster from the days when the building was part of a school. But alongside him was something else — a darker presence, described by witnesses as a black shadowy figure, a smoky mass, or a hooded form moving silently through the hall.
The most unsettling moment comes after an evening pantomime, when Jan is alone in the building and sees a strange blue ball of light grow in the darkened hall before shooting through the double doors. The next morning, a local teenager arrives with his own account of what he saw through the rear window: a huge shadow figure following Jan across the room.
Atmospheric, strange, and deeply unnerving, this episode blends witness testimony, haunted workplace activity, possible residual spirits, mediumship, shadow phenomena, and the uneasy suggestion that something inside the community hall was never meant to be disturbed.

Sat, 25 Oct 2025 - 1h 03min - 174 - Feed Swap - Macabrium - Treacherous Seas
The Haunted UK Podcast is proud to be involved with this very special 'Podcast Episode Swap' with the excellent Macabrium Podcast.
Macabrium is a podcast for anyone drawn to the dark side of humanity, the shadows of crime, and the legends and ghost stories that blur the line between truth and myth. Every Tuesday we share stories that are as unsettling as they are unforgettable, weaving together fact, folklore, and imagination.
Hosted by artists (actors Megan Alda and Derek Stephen Brown) who wanted a way to connect and share stories that matter and leave an impact, Macabrium is fueled by curiosity and a love of storytelling. These are the tales that stay with us whether they come from old case files, folklore, or histories that don't make it into textbooks. They approach each story with care, honouring the people and experiences at the center of these narratives.
Macabrium is more than exploring the mysterious and the disturbing. It is about the impact stories have on us and the conversations they spark. It is a space for listeners who want to reflect, connect, and perhaps feel a chill or two along the way.
Today, we have episode "115. Treacherous Seas: A Mystery in the Graveyard of the Atlantic"
There are ships that vanish without a trace... and then there are ships that turn up when they shouldn't. The Carroll A. Deering was one of those. A five-masted schooner, found run aground off the Outer Banks in 1921, her crew gone without explanation. No distress call, no goodbye, nothing Some say it was mutiny, others say pirates, and a few still wonder if something far stranger was at play…..

Mon, 20 Oct 2025 - 3min - 170 - Short Haunts - The Second Building
Some buildings feel wrong before anything has happened.
For Darren, a night security job in Glasgow should have been routine: empty corridors, CCTV monitors, locked doors, and quiet overnight patrols. But one smaller government building carried a different kind of silence — heavy, watchful, and difficult to explain.
This Short Haunts listener story takes us into a Glasgow office building where strange sightings, unexplained voices, physical encounters and a terrifying late-night incident left a lasting mark. From misty shapes moving across CCTV screens to the sound of a woman’s voice heard over a phone line, the accounts build toward one unforgettable night, when motion-sensor lights began turning on one by one down an empty corridor.
What follows is a chilling account of isolation, fear, and the uneasy atmosphere that can settle over a place after dark. With links to a former bus station, reports of tragic accidents, and the possibility of something still moving through the building, this is a story about the moments when rational explanations begin to thin — and something unseen seems to come closer.

Mon, 06 Oct 2025 - 4min - 164 - S07-E03 - Ghosts of Glensheen Mansion
On the shores of Lake Superior stands a mansion of rare beauty, wealth, and silence.
Glensheen was built as a family home — a lakeside estate of gardens, grand rooms, polished wood, and carefully preserved history. But behind its elegance lies one of Minnesota’s most haunting true crime stories, and a legacy that some believe still moves through its halls.
This episode of Haunted UK Podcast travels to Duluth, Minnesota, to explore the story of Glensheen Mansion: the Congdon family fortune, the life of Elisabeth Congdon, and the shocking events of June 27th, 1977, when Elisabeth and her nurse, Velma Pietila, were murdered inside the house.
What follows is a layered journey through history, betrayal, tragedy, and the unexplained. From the mansion’s preserved rooms and lakeside grounds to reports of apparitions, cold spots, moving objects, shadowy figures, and figures seen in windows and gardens, Glensheen becomes more than the scene of a crime. It becomes a place where memory seems to linger.
Blending historical storytelling, true crime, ghost stories, and witness accounts, this is a haunting portrait of a remarkable American mansion — one where beauty and violence sit side by side, and where the past may not have fully left the house behind.

Sat, 27 Sep 2025 - 5min - 159 - S07-E02 - Thirty Years and Counting
Some people experience the unexplained once.
For others, it seems to follow them through life — returning in different forms, different rooms, different years, until the question becomes impossible to ignore: are some people simply more open to whatever lies beyond ordinary perception?
This listener-led episode follows Ian’s remarkable account of paranormal experiences spanning around thirty years, beginning in childhood and continuing into adulthood. What starts with a frightening encounter in a bedroom grows into a long and deeply personal history of strange phenomena: unseen hands, footsteps in empty rooms, a poster moving by itself, a presence felt throughout the family home, vivid dreams that appear to predict real events, and moments of contact with loved ones who have passed on.
As the story unfolds, the encounters shift between fear, grief, comfort and uncertainty. There are episodes that feel deeply unsettling, others that seem almost protective, and several that raise difficult questions about intuition, precognition, family bonds, and whether certain people remain sensitive to the paranormal long after childhood.
Atmospheric, personal and quietly disturbing, this is a haunting account of a life lived alongside the unexplained — where memory, loss, dreams and fear all seem to point toward something still just out of reach.

Sat, 20 Sep 2025 - 48min - 158 - Short Haunts - Papa and the Watch
Some hauntings don’t arrive with fear.
Sometimes, they come quietly — through a dream, a familiar voice, a cherished object, or one small movement that seems to answer a question spoken through grief.
In this Short Haunts listener story, Martin shares a deeply personal account from 1997, following the death of his beloved grandfather, known affectionately as Papa. At just twelve years old, Martin was facing the loss of someone who had been like a second father to him. But on the night of Papa’s passing, something happened that left him not frightened, but comforted.
What follows is a moving account of bereavement, family connection, and the possibility of contact after death. From a vivid encounter in a darkened room to an extraordinary moment involving Papa’s old watch, this story explores the strange and tender territory between memory, love, grief, and the unexplained.
Quietly powerful and emotionally charged, this is a haunting that feels less like a warning from beyond — and more like a final reassurance from someone who never truly left.

Sat, 13 Sep 2025 - 13min - 156 - S07-E01 - Muncaster Castle
In the Lake District, close to the River Esk and just a mile from the Cumbrian coast, Muncaster Castle has stood for centuries.
It is a place of family history, Roman foundations, old legends, strange footsteps, and one room in particular whose reputation has drawn witnesses, researchers, and ghost hunters into the dark.
This episode of Haunted UK Podcast explores the history and hauntings of Muncaster Castle, one of Britain’s most atmospheric haunted locations. From the Pennington family’s long connection to the estate to the stories of Tom Skelton, Mary Bragg, King Henry VI and the mysterious Luck of Muncaster, the castle’s folklore is layered with betrayal, violence, grief and legend.
At the heart of the episode lies the Tapestry Room — a space associated with crying children, cold spots, unexplained voices, apparitions, strange emotional reactions and unusual magnetic readings. Alongside historic ghost stories and witness testimony, the episode also looks at the scientific research carried out at Muncaster, including investigations into magnetic anomalies and possible experience-inducing fields around the room’s bed.
With accounts from castle owners, staff, visitors, researchers and overnight guests, this is a journey through one of the UK’s most compelling haunted castles — where history, folklore, atmosphere and the unexplained seem to gather in the same shadowed rooms.
