The Blank Monk of Pontefract

The Brohio Podcast

In this spine-chilling episode, we journey to Pontefract, England, to uncover the sinister legend of the Black Monk. Known as one of the most violent hauntings in British history, the ghostly monk allegedly terrorized a family in the 1960s, leaving behind tales of eerie apparitions, levitating objects, and terrifying poltergeist activity that have left locals in fear for decades. Is the Black Monk just a ghost story—or could there be something darker lurking in the shadows?This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp.
