    Haunted UK Abroad – Mysterious and Haunted Islands

    For most people, the thought of an island holiday conjures up images of sun, sandy beaches, relaxation… perhaps the sights and sounds of tropical birds, maybe a dash of adventure, or a guided excursion through a foreign landscape. Countless visitors flock to islands on holiday every year, and most of them have a wonderful time, returning to their daily lives feeling refreshed and rejuvenated… but for some who, perhaps, chose a sunny island with a darker side, a holiday can take an unexpected turn… leaving some of them to return home traumatized, and in some cases, accompanied by an entity. This is Haunted UK Abroad, and in this episode, we're exploring mysterious and haunted islands around the world. Do you have an interesting story which you'd be willing to share with the show?

    Haunted UK Abroad - Haunted Hotels Around the World

    There’s nothing quite like scheduling a holiday… the anticipation as the departure date approaches, packing up the night before, setting off to the chosen destination – whether new or familiar. Then there’s the excitement of arriving at the location you will call home for a few days or weeks… but what if things were to take a dark turn? What if the accommodation you’ve booked isn’t as peaceful and relaxing as you thought it would be…? What if, perhaps, there are inexplicable sounds in the night… or you feel an unseen presence in the room with you? This is Haunted UK Abroad, and in this episode, we're exploring some of the most Haunted Hotels in the world. Do you have an interesting story which you'd be willing to share with the show?

    Haunted UK Abroad - Ghostly tales and Legends of Quebec – Part 2

    Haunted UK Abroad - Ghostly tales and Legends of Quebec – Part 2 Early settlers in what would become the Canadian province of Quebec were known for being hardy, resourceful, proud people, having to survive both the harsh climate of the region and the persistent threat of assimilation which could potentially lead to the loss of their culture, traditions, and history. Over the course of centuries, their stories were passed down, to both record this rich cultural history and to warn the population of the various dangers of the land. From the ghost of a caged witch, a unique take on the werewolf and deals with the devil, to the many ghosts left behind by the challenges of settling a new frontier, the stories are as varied as they are numerous.  This is Haunted UK Abroad, and in this episode, we’ll explore the legends, mysteries, and lore of the French-Canadian province of Quebec.   Do you have an interesting story which you'd be willing to share with the show?

    Haunted UK Abroad - Ghostly tales and Legends of Quebec – Part 1

    Quebec is known as one of the most historically and culturally rich provinces in Canada. Its culture is one filled to the brim with folklore and legends, to the point where there are books dedicated entirely to traditional French-Canadian fairy tales and lore. These stories intertwine the influences of both early French settlers and the Native American tribes that populated the region. Most of the legends were kept alive by Raconteurs, the French-Canadian equivalent of bards or minstrels who would use oral storytelling traditions to both keep their people’s history and culture alive and pass on warnings about the consequences of moral failings such as greed or selfishness. These tales spread throughout the land as the Raconteurs travelled the region, spreading stories that would often feature religious undertones, such as deals with the devil and the dire consequences that ensued, to keep morality, superstition, and obedience at the forefront of the burgeoning population’s minds. Many of these stories are still familiar to the current population of Quebec and continue to be told to this day. This is Haunted UK Abroad, and in this episode, we’ll explore the legends, mysteries, and lore of the French-Canadian province of Quebec.   Do you have an interesting story which you'd be willing to share with the show?

    Haunted UK Abroad - Gilded Age Ghosts and Mysteries of the Berkshires

    Between the years of 1865 and 1901, the United States saw unprecedented economic and industrial growth. During this time, an area referred to as The Berkshires in the state of Massachusetts became the primary location for the country’s wealthiest families to build country estates that would rival many of the UK’s manor houses in both stature and size. These estates, despite their grandiose nature, were referred to as the Berkshire Cottages due to their primary function being summer homes. Many of these houses hosted lavish events attended by the highest of high society figures at the time. Over a century after the Berkshire Cottages’ heyday, echoes remain of former inhabitants who aren’t yet prepared to leave their grandiose, gilded age homes behind.

    Haunted UK Abroad – Whispers Beneath the Frozen Veil of Antarctica

    In the months following World War II, Antarctica drew the attention of one of the most ambitious polar expeditions in history: Operation Highjump, led by Admiral Richard E. Byrd in 1946–47. Officially, the mission was straightforward…a massive naval operation to train personnel, test new equipment in extreme polar conditions, and establish research outposts. The U.S. Navy deployed thousands of personnel, dozens of ships, and a fleet of aircraft to navigate the treacherous ice.   But as often happens in isolated, secretive places, reality and rumour quickly intertwined. Almost immediately after the expedition, extraordinary stories began to circulate. Some claimed that Byrd’s reconnaissance flights revealed not endless ice, but vast stretches of greenery, lakes, and even herds of prehistoric creatures…creatures reminiscent of mammoths, wandering in isolated valleys hidden from human eyes.   Do you have an interesting story which you'd be willing to share with the show?

    Episode 70 – Part 4 - The Green Light and Other Listeners’ Stories

    That evening my two colleagues had gone back to the room and I got chatting to the night manager who was probably in his 80’s at the time.

    Locked In With The Dead - Oxford Castle and Prison

    On the 6th of September 2025, I was given exclusive access to one of the most notorious and historically charged locations in Britain… Oxford Castle & Prison.A site that has stood for nearly a thousand years. A fortress. A prison. A place of execution. And, according to many who work within its ancient walls, a place where the past may not be entirely at rest.  After sitting down for interviews with members of the team, hearing firsthand accounts of unexplained experiences from those who know the building best, I was granted something few ever experience… a personal tour after the doors had closed to the public. So, if you’re sitting comfortably… we’ll begin. Want even more from us?
