In the late 1960s, a quiet family home at 30 East Drive in Pontefract, England, became the site of one of the most violent hauntings ever recorded. Objects flew, walls bled, and an unseen force attacked a teenage girl. Witnesses claimed to see a hooded figure in black — a ghostly monk said to have been executed centuries earlier on that very ground. Decades later, the house still seethes with activity, and no one has ever found a rational explanation.-----------------Head to the Strange Places home website, asylum817.com to keep up with all things Strange Places, as well as the host.

In the late 1960s, a modest council house in Pontefract, England, became the site of one of the most violent and terrifying hauntings ever recorded. The Pritchard family reported pools of water forming on the floor, objects flying through the air, and ghostly apparitions roaming their home. At the center of it all was a sinister figure known as the Black Monk, a dark presence said to be tied to the town's bloody past. Was it poltergeist activity, mass hysteria, or something darker that tormented the family at 30 East Drive? In this episode, we investigate the chilling case of the Black Monk of Pontefract.

Welcome to Britain's most haunted house — 30 East Drive in Pontefract — where a seemingly ordinary family home turned into a prison of nightmares. What started with mysterious puddles, floating dust clouds, and furniture that moved on its own quickly escalated into full-blown poltergeist chaos. Known by the Pritchard family as Fred, the Black Monk of Pontefract wasn't just mischievous — it was terrifying, violent, and maybe even hungry (yes, this spirit snacked on sandwiches). From eggs exploding mid-air to priests fleeing after failed exorcisms, the Pritchard family lived through a haunting so wild it inspired an actual horror film. But in between the chills, there are moments so bizarre they're almost funny — like disembodied fur gloves conducting a hymn sing-along. Still, the poltergeist's obsession with teenage Diane, culminating in a nightmarish attempt to drag her away, proved this was no harmless prankster.

Happy Spooky Wednesday, dear listeners! If our subject this week sounds ominous, that's because it is! Brittany tells us all about the Black Monk of Pontefract. The bulk of this haunting occurred in England during the 1970s and 1980s. This ordinary-looking home was plagued by extraordinary events brought on by an entity known as “Fred.” While the haunting seemed standard enough, it eventually escalated and seemed targeted specifically at the family's daughter. While the activity had come and gone throughout the years, now that the home is available for paranormal investigation, it seems like the otherworldly activity is documented enough that it would be hard to dispute!

At the age of 21 Mostafa Asal reached world number one for the first time, and he made it to the promised land once again a few months ago, recently retaining that top spot in a winner take all type final at El Ghuna earlier this April. In the aftermath of that win though, a youtube video titled "Mostafa Asal Cheating Analysis" was released highlighting 4 or 5 areas in Asal's game that they allege prove he is cheating. The video could have been an objective piece that identifies and discusses the leg trips, aggressive swings, and taking space issues, but instead the video is injected with troubling hateful language and doesn't raise any questions, only pointing fingers solely at Asal. Mostafa provides his thoughts on the video and how he's handling the upshot of it all. We also discuss the high stakes face-off with Ali Farag at El Ghouna, how he adjusted to life and squash in Pontefract, his relationship with coach James Willstrop, his brother Marwan and much more.

It started with a few weird little things—a strange chill, mysterious puddles, objects moving on their own—but before long, the Pritchard family found themselves trapped in one of the most violent hauntings in England, tormented by the terrifying Black Monk of Pontefract.IN THIS EPISODE: A family moves into a home and almost immediately begins to experience escalating supernatural activity – which then introduces a sinister, dark menacing entity. (The Black Monk) *** Urban legends are typically dark, strange stories which for the most part are only that – legend. Harmless tales meant to frighten the listener with no more repercussions than some goose bumps and perhaps a restless night of trying to sleep. But some legends are based on truth – and those are the ones that truly make our skin crawl and our faces turn white. (Urban Legends Which Are Actually True) *** Why would a U.S. state vote to have an official state demon? It really happened – and stories about the Jersey Devil continue to this day. We'll look at the history and horrors of this bizarre cryptid and see if it's more than urban legend. (Legend of the Jersey Devil) *** Delano, California is a small, uninteresting town that many may think twice before visiting. East of this town is an equally dreary road known as Browning Road. If you're a paranormal enthusiast, you know that this is one road you shouldn't dare travel alone. (Hitchhiking Ghost of Delano) *** A woman shares her horrifying true story of an evil entity she encountered on Browning Road in Delano, California. (Evil Walks Browning Road) *** In the summer of 2014 a series of UFOs were being reported by Navy pilots – the most elite of our airborne military. Not only were the sightings becoming more frequent – they would last up to 12-hours at a time.

Listen to the full episode here!In this week's episode we finally dive into the story of arguably the United Kingdom's most powerful haunting; the case of The Black Monk of Pontefract. With Tim Hacker of the Cryptic Chronicles Podcast (www.CrypticChronicles.com), our story begins when the Farrar family purchased a new home built over land with a dark history only to be driven away when they realized their baby might be in danger. When the Pritchard's moved in shortly after, it would not be long until their world too would be turned completely upside down. With activity so powerful it could reliably spook a hardened skeptic there were times the Pritchard's even feared for their life. In the extended show we discuss the spectacular fall-out from the ill-fated exorcism the family performed and some of the most remarkable instances of high-strangeness ever recorded which shortly followed, often characterized by religious themes. Near the end we discuss if the Black Monk is truly a poltergeist, a ghost, an Elemental or even a demon while exploring a number of the psycho-spiritual factors which likely made the activity so potent and what finally stopped it.

Rerun: Before the Ballot Act of 18th July, 1872, the British electorate were expected to declare their preferred candidate publicly at hustings, often under pressure from their employers and landlords, and plied with alcohol supplied by the politicians standing for election, in a process known as ‘soaking'. Over the years, alternatives had been put forward - including Jeremy Bentham's concept of 1818, which involved a multitude of secret boxes with viewing windows - before the modern idea of private booths and a ballot box came to the fore.  In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and OIly explain why many voters saw secret ballots as sneaky and cowardly; explain how Australia beat Britain when it came to instituting voting in secret; and discover the teething problems experienced when Pontefract became the first town to test out the new process… Further Reading: • ‘Britain's first secret ballot' (BBC News, 2015): https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-31630588 • ‘Rhodri Marsden's Interesting Objects: Pontefract's secret ballot box' (The Independent, 2015): https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/rhodri-marsden-s-interesting-objects-pontefract-s-secret-ballot-box-a114506.html • ‘What was the Secret Ballot? | The Ballot Act 1872' (Royal Holloway University London, 2020): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9M8Lix4FgUM Learn more about your ad choices.
