Haunted UK Podcast

Located on the banks of the Mississippi river, New Orleans is famous for many things such as jazz music, Creole and Cajun cuisine, and a rich cultural heritage that blends African, Native American, Spanish, Caribbean, and French ancestry. Nicknamed “The Big Easy”, New Orleans conjures up images of Mardi Gras parades with their colourful purple, green, and gold bead necklaces, and bands walking the streets playing to roaring crowds… But the joyful, celebratory side of New Orleans has an equally dark, sombre, and much more frightening side…This is Haunted UK Abroad, and today we visit the Southern state of Louisianna in the U.S. and, specifically, the – by all accounts very haunted – city of New Orleans.Do you have an interesting story which you'd be willing to share with the show?

Momentarily he stopped to listen, concentrating to see if he could hear anyone talking. He did this to try and gauge how many people could potentially be in the room ... but it was completely silent. Again, he went to take another step closer, but as he prepared to do so, a chair came flying out of the room. This was then followed by a definite and unmistakeable sense of pressure on his shoulders. And so, it couldn't be denied: there was someone or something … lurking in the void.This is Episode 45 of the Haunted UK Podcast, and in this special mid-season episode, we're going to hear some of yourchilling stories.Do you have an interesting story which you'd be willing to share with the show?

Hello to all of you lovely listeners out there.From June 1st 2025, the Haunted UK Podcast will be making a few changes to how you can help support the show. In the past, Patreon would have been the goto option for so many, but after a series of incredibly damaging charges issued by companies such as Apple…mentioning no names…we decided to take a step back and have a think about how we could offer you, our fantastic listeners, the best possible alternative to those unnecessary charges.So, from the date already mentioned, the Haunted UK Podcast will not only be on Patreon, but we'll also now be on Kofi…and the price you see for the tier…is the price you'll pay…no charges…nothing hidden…no more, no less.Our three tiers will also be shrunk down to just two – SPOOKED @ £3.00 per month, our dip your toe in the water kinda tier – and POSSESSED @ just £7.00 per month, our top of the line tier. We've also decided to stop releasing our series Movie Haunts, simply because it just didn't seem to be popular to the wider audience.Another alteration will be to our series Talk Haunts, our interview-based spin off. We're not completely phasing it out, but we are going to pick and choose the times when we release these types of episodes…so that could be once every 3 months…or maybe every 6 months.With the time that we'll have clawed back from not doing these episodes, we'll be much more focused on doing what we feel we do best…releasing episodes about ghosts, hauntings, poltergeists…the paranormal…the supernatural…the unknown…the unexplained…and of course…your listeners' stories.These episodes will form the basis of our two tiers…more great content, but the type of content that we all know and love. And as with Patreon, if you love the community side of being a tier member, and that's what might be holding you back from joining Kofi or swapping from Patreon to Kofi…then don't worry…we've got you covered.We now have our Discord Server so, you can chat, message, video or voice call. You'll have automatic access to this when you sign up to either tier…but this server will also be available to existing and new Patreon members…we want to keep this community as connected and together as humanly possible.And to make our entire back catalogue more accessible to you on ko-fi, you'll also be given access to a cloud-based drive, where you'll find every single one of our episodes, all organised into easy to navigate folders.We can't wait to see you either on Patreon or Kofi, and if you're already an existing member of Patreon, then we simply can't thank each and every single one of you enough for all of your amazing support.So, with all of that said, if you want to take advantage of Ko-fi and sign up to a tier right now…then it's easy – go to Ko-fi.com/hauntedukpodcast, and you'll find us straight away. Alternatively, just type something like “haunted uk podcast on kofi' into a web browser, and you'll soon be on our page.So, until the next time…until the next episode…stay safe…and take care.Haunted UK Podcast Patreonko-fi.com/hauntedukpodcastWebsite: https://hauntedukpodcast.com/Instagram: Haunted UK PodcastTwitter/X: @hauntedukpodWe're also now on Facebook – please join us there!You can also find us on Tiktok here https://www.tiktok.com/@hauntedukpodcast

Welcome dear listeners, to our series of ‘Short Haunts' – a shot of scary ... just for you. So, grab a hot chocolate, maybe a tea, maybe something stronger … because this is Haunted UK Podcast's 'Short Haunts –Angel or Apparition.'Many of us go through life with little or no interaction with the paranormal, whilst others seem like beacons, who cannot help but attract activity. As we've heard so many times on this podcast, the supernatural and paranormal can become embroiled in the lives of so many different people...scientists, doctors, care-workers, lawyers. It doesn't care who's lives it touches, and whilst many of the stories which we've heard, and researched, consist of accounts which left those at the centre of the activity completely terrified, there are a handful of stories which...go against that grain.Presented by Steve HollowayProduced by Pink Flamingo Home StudiosScript edited by  Marie Waller Proofreading Do you have an interesting story which features the paranormal?

‘He looked like he was in agony. His face scrunched up, and moving like he was trying to crawl backwards away from whatever he could see. Instinct took over, and I accelerated away.

‘As I was coming down the road, I saw what I thought were the lights of an oncoming car, so I stopped to let it pass. After a few moments I flashed my lights but got no response so, thinking the car may have broken down in the snow or got stuck; I walked into the woods towards the lights to help. As I neared, I saw there had been an accident and ran to the car which had struck a telegraph pole, knocking it into the woods.

‘Exhausted, he approached his doorstep with heavy footsteps; his eyes glued to the cobblestones – when he heard the clang of something hit the ground … it was a comb, the symbol of the banshee, and when he looked ahead to his doorstep, an old ghostly woman with the longest grey hair looked at him; her face wizened … she silently pointed up to the sky with her fingers …' The banshee is a Celtic legend who heralds death to families on the island of Ireland; we'll be exploring her history, her myth – as well as some real-life encounters with this wailing entity. So, sit back, listen but take heed as you do – for this is episode 59 of the Haunted UK Podcast, and we're going to hear the call, the wail, the distant cry and of course: The Tale of the Banshee.

So, grab a hot chocolate, maybe a tea, maybe something stronger … because this is Haunted UK Podcast's ‘Short Haunts'. The places in which we grow up will always be closest to our hearts and where we ultimately feel the safest and most secure.

Amelia lay awake for what seemed like hours, and with her windows closed but the shutters open, she decided to gaze out her window and admire the beautiful moonlit countryside. Amelia's bedroom window gave her an ideal view of the large lawn and the border of trees, which stood between Coglin Grange and the old graveyard; as her eyes scanned the silhouettes and shapes cast by the moonlight, she noticed that two small bright lights had now appeared in the treeline. These lights were moving through the trees and steadily towards the lawn … but what were they? ... Eye shine from an animal? ... Possibly a fox? … Amelia doubted it, as the lights appeared to be too high off the ground to be any animal … This is episode 58 of the Haunted UK Podcast, and in this episode, we're going in search of Vampires in the UK.

Our bedroom was small and narrow, and the door was about six feet from the end of our queen-sized bed. The noise was thunderous, three knocks, rapid and loud. Bang, bang, bang!  ‘Did you hear that?' I said, ‘Yep,' Brian responded – his voice weird and bored. I had a moment of surprise and sat straight up in bed. Then it happened again. Bang, bang, bang! This time, I got up immediately and walked quickly to the door, figuring that one of the three kids, probably my seven-year-old daughter, was scared and needed me. I opened it and started to speak, then stopped when I saw no one was there. I stared into a large, well-lit open area that was completely empty. I could see the stairs ... also empty. My lizard brain hissed softly. ‘Run' it said. This is episode 57 of the Haunted UK Podcast, and in this episode, we venture across the Atlantic to hear about a truly disturbing haunting … a Haunting in Oregon.

On the 15th of September 2024, I attended a ghost hunt at the location of this shows very first episode way back in June 2021. That location was of course, Dudley Castle. Since an early age, I'd had a healthy interest in castles, and knowing that one with such great historical significance was just a short drive away from not only where I grew up, but also where I live now, always seemed surreal. But throughout my early years, I never really thought of Dudley Castle as a place where ghosts or the spirits of the dead, would haunt…but how wrong I was. Every now and then, an article would appear in a local newspaper, or a story would be heard on radio, retold by either the presenter or news reader, or if you were lucky, by the witness themselves. Was I about to finally witness...something paranormal???

Episode 56 – Blitz Spirits It's the morning after the night of 14th of November 1940, Coventry, England – a night seared and synonymous with terror. Walking through the rubble of Coventry Cathedral, stonemason Jack Forbes surveyed the landscape with utter disbelief. Fearing the shock was yet to catch up with him, he walked further forward – with ringing in his ears no doubt from the night before, it was there amid the smoke, the putrid air – bitter with shrapnel and burnt timber from fourteenth-century frames that used to so proudly hold Coventry city up – he saw something rather eerie and unexpected … This is episode 56 of the Haunted UK Podcast and in this episode, we go back in time to the 1940s in the UK; during a time when the veil between life and death was at its most fragile, most thin, most hard worn – a time when you never knew when your ‘number was up' … Join us as we delve into some supernatural tales from the time as we uncover true courage, inspiration and … ‘Blitz Spirits'.

Presenting something which sits within the realms of the paranormal or supernatural is naturally going to be hard to present to the scientific community with any type of conviction. Hauntings and their activity are very hit and miss. Sometimes, amazingly reliable and solid witnesses will see something that challenges their beliefs ... whereas other times, a scientific investigation will yield absolutely nothing. So, how do we balance this scale? Can we make a judgement? Join us on this episode, as we aim to draw a verdict on this ever-intriguing case. This is episode 54 of the Haunted UK Podcast – and in this episode of Season 6, we conclude our deep dive into one of the most famous poltergeist cases of all time.

Episode 52 – Enfield Poltergeist (Part Two) ‘I was standing there looking at the house when all of a sudden, a couple of books came flying across and hit the window. It was so sudden. I heard the noise because it was so quiet, there was no traffic, and it made me jump. Then after a little while, I saw … Janet. I don't know if there's a bed underneath that window, but she was going up and down  … in a horizontal position, like as if someone had got hold of her legs and back and was throwing her up and down'. Hazel Short ... witness to one of Janet Hodgson's alleged levitation events.  This is part two of episode 52 of the Haunted UK Podcast – and in this episode of Season 6, we continue our deep dive into one of the most famous poltergeist cases of all time.

Episode 52 – Enfield Poltergeist Part One ‘On Thursday 1st September 1977 at approximately 1 a.m., I was on duty in my capacity as a policewoman, when I received a radio message to 284 Green Street, Enfield. I went to this address where I found a number of people standing in the living room. I was told by the occupier of this house that strange things had been happening during the last few nights and that they believed that the house was haunted.'

Short Haunts – Does Darkness Follow? Is it possible for a person to actually manifest paranormal activity into our dimension, giving spirits or entities the energy they require to break through that thin veil into the world that we share? This Short Haunt shines a light on listener Gary's experiences – who no matter where he visits and lives, he always seems to encounter an entity. Do people like Gary possess an aura, a strange beacon, invisible to us, but shining as bright as a lighthouse beam to those in the paranormal realm ... and they see it, they flock to it, hoping that the person holding that beacon, can maybe free them ... so they're able to move on to the next world?  This Short Haunt asks … Does Darkness Follow?

Episode 51 – Don't Scream Welcome back to Season 6 – and what an episode to start with. This is Libby's story – when it was first sent to us here at the show, it made us drop everything with fear and urgency – this was a story we had to ell. This is a tale of a happy, loving family who acquired a new yet very old wardrobe – a wardrobe which would house more than just clothes …  but something ‘else'. And that ‘else' was determined to create chaos, terror … ruining everything they held dear. This is episode 51 of the Haunted UK Podcast, and in this episode, we'll hear from Libby – and we warn you, it's a story you won't forget in a hurry …  but whatever you do …  ‘Don't Scream' now.

Our last 'From The Vault' episode before Season 6 launches on Friday 6th September. ‘Making sure their parents were asleep, the two 17-year-olds quietly left their homes with their tent, sleeping bags and other bits and pieces, and drove to a secluded spot. At around midnight, they'd found the perfect place to camp, so began pitching their tent and getting comfortable. It wasn't long after this that they both thought they heard something moving around in close proximity to their tent … They kept still and quiet, and continued to listen, but this was when the sounds of movement changed into the sounds of very definite footsteps ... there was someone in the forest with them.' Content warning: Contains distressing details of child abduction cases from the 1960s linked to the area.

'Tis the season to be jolly.....and also the season to tell spooky stories, and the cases of the missing 411 are definitely creepy. In America, tens of thousands of people go to national parks to enjoy the scenery, wildlife and the awesome experience of being in the presence of amazing natural beauty. But over the course of over 100 years, many people have simply vanished into thin air whilst visiting these beautiful tourist attractions. Only a handful of bodies have ever been found, and those have some very disturbing and strange facts connected to their discoveries. So with the Christmas holidays upon us, lets delve into some of the strange cases of the missing 411.

So, as you'll all be aware, our current season has now come to an end...and what a great season it was...so many amazing stories, and so many fantastic listener contributions. And whilst we're working hard in the background on the new season, we felt that we didn't want to just leave you all in a paranormal type limbo, so we've decided to pull a few of our most memorable episodes out of the vault...and re-release them...so that all you amazing listeners out there, have something to sink your paranormal, supernatural and even sceptical chops into. We'll also be releasing a couple of brand new Short Haunts to accompany these re-released episodes...but for now...grab a drink, get comfortable, dim the lights, and enjoy this classic episode.
