Pursuit of the Paranormal

Was this a tragic accident, government cover-up, or evidence of extraterrestrial contact?The Unconventional Ufologist, Steve Yarwood, investigates the Burning Man of BrazilSteve breaks it all down with his signature mix of sharp analysis, fearless curiosity, and unapologetic scepticism.

In the mid-1980s, a quiet Cheshire cottage became the centre of one of the UK's strangest paranormal cases. Ken Webster and his partner Debbie discovered mysterious files appearing on their borrowed BBC Micro computer — messages signed “L.W.” that claimed to come from a Tudor man in the 1540s. Over the next eighteen months, hundreds of communications appeared, including warnings like “You live in my house… with lights the devil makes,” and even bizarre intrusions from a group calling themselves “2109” who claimed the entire affair was part of a guided experiment. Was this a haunting, a hoax, or a conversation across time itself? In this episode of Pursuit of the Paranormal, Greg explores the full story of The Dodleston Messages — the messages, the investigations, and the theories that still divide believers and sceptics today.Keywords: Dodleston Messages, The Vertical Plane, Ken Webster, BBC Micro haunting, 2109, Tudor ghost, time slip, UK paranormal case, poltergeist, Thomas Hawarden.Pursuit Of The Paranormalwww.linktree.com/pursuitoftheparanormal
