    Short Haunts - After Hours

    Short Haunts – After Hours 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 –After Hours.’  'When I told the security guard what had happened, he didn’t laugh or dismiss it. He admitted that other cleaners had mentioned objects being slightly out of place on that same floor. Bins tipped over for no clear reason, chairs subtly repositioned in empty meeting rooms, taps found running when no one had been upstairs. Nothing extreme, nothing that would make headlines, but enough to leave you uneasy and constantly looking over your shoulder.'

    Return To Dudley Castle Part 3 with Amy Hickman

    Welcome to part three of my return to Dudley Castle. In this final episode, Amy takes me around the castle grounds themselves, guiding me through some of the locations most closely linked to reported paranormal activity. From shadowy corners to open spaces with long memories, this is where the stories we’ve been discussing throughout the series truly come to life. A huge thank you to Amy for all of her time, knowledge, and generosity throughout this series. I’d also like to thank all the staff and management at Dudley Castle and Zoological Gardens for accommodating me last September and for making me feel so welcome during my visit.

    Return To Dudley Castle Part 1 with Amy Hickman

    Recorded on location in September 2025, I was lucky enough to interview Amy, the paranormal host and historian at Dudley Castle. This interview explores the castle’s long and often brutal history, uncovering the surprising connections between Dudley Castle and some of the most colourful, and at times bloody, periods in British history. We also delve deep into the ghostly encounters and paranormal events which have solidified Dudley Castle as being one of the most haunted locations in Great Britain. Now, this interview ended up being so rich it’s been split into three parts. In part one, we focus on the history and the people who once lived within these walls and walked these beautiful grounds, and we whet your appetite with a few ghostly tales along the way. In part two, we dive much deeper into the ghosts, legends, and strange happenings associated with the castle. And in part three, Amy takes me out on location around the castle and its grounds, visiting some of the remarkable places where spirits and ghosts are said to roam. So, join me now for part one of my return to Dudley Castle. Want even more from us?

    Episode 70 - Part 2 - The Ghost Within and Other Listeners’ Stories

    Most of these events occurred in my bedroom at night, but increasingly I had minor experiences out and about in daytime, such as faint crawling and shuffling sensations on my head and face. I tried on all the ‘normal’ explanations – creaking old house, wind, sleep paralysis, hypnogogia, etc. – but none of them were a fit for most of what I experienced. I was left to conclude that I had a poltergeist. Believing that ghosts or unwanted spirits were the cause of the problem and watching ghost-related media made me afraid… and that fear made it much worse.  This Episode 70 – Part 2 of our end of season listeners’ stories, and it’s time to hear from more of you listeners once again…but also about ‘The Ghost Within’.  Do you have an interesting story which you'd be willing to share with the show?

    ‘Dad was moved into a private room as he was declining in health. Due to the medication being administered, he was sleeping more and more. This is where little events made me question all I believed in before about life after death. As soon as he moved into the room, a little sparrow, which seemed to be injured, appeared outside by the glass doors. The sparrow looked as though it wanted to come into the room. A few days passed, and the sparrow remained by the glass doors, observing …’  This is episode 70 of the Haunted UK Podcast, and our first foray into your listeners’ stories.  Do you have an interesting story which you'd be willing to share with the show?

    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 - A Life of Haunting Experiences’.  So many times, on this show, we’ve heard accounts of people who seem to experience the paranormal, or supernatural, on multiple occasions. Many others go through life never having any type of encounter at all. So, what makes these types of people so different to the rest of us? Could it have something to do with the effects that their body and mind have on the atmosphere around them? Are they somehow able to influence these strange phenomena to occur? Whatever exists beyond the veil of the world of the living, if anything exists at all, is it somehow attracted to the energy of these types of people?
