A grand estate built around a house built in 1693, and destroyed by fire in 1977 is said to be the haunt of shadowy figures belonging to those who knew the building so well in life. The stable block, added in 1811, is one of the more active areas. Why this is the case we’ll likely never know.
Phantom lights float around the house, and whispering is heard deep in the woodland. Dogs howl and bark within the grounds in the dead of night, and can be heard for miles around.
Would I encounter any of these phantoms when my team and I investigated this estate back in the spring of 2012?
Let's find out together.
Tonight, join me for a very special episode, as we return to Edinburgh and ask just how haunted is the Cammo Estate?

One of the most ancient and mysterious places on Earth. This prehistoric monument has been standing for up to 5,000 years and has been the subject of countless legends and myths. But why are ghostly apparitions and strange floating lights seen moving around the stones here? Hear the remainder of my conversation with Emma from the Weird Wiltshire Blog as we explore the secrets of Stonehenge and its haunted reputation.
So, tonight, join me as the Summer Solstice draws ever closer as we once again ask just how haunted is Stonehenge?

With its imposing stones and intricate architecture, this structure has stood as a testament to human ingenuity and skill for millennia. Its construction occurred during the Neolithic and Bronze Age periods, making it one of the most fascinating, and best known, archaeological sites in the world.
Not only that but is has been intrinsically linked to folklore, myth, and the paranormal since the dawn of its recorded history.
So, tonight, as the summer solstice draws closer join me for the first of a two-part special, and we ask how haunted is Stonehenge?

Originally released for Patreons in December, I hope you enjoy this very special episode.
Picking up where we left off at the end of episode 7 and 8, I head to the Wheatsheaf pub to conduct the only investigation permitted there in the last decade.
In this special episode, you'll join me for an investigation in early 2015, and I'll talk you through every aspect of the ghost hunt, and you'll hear actual audio from the investigation, as it happened.
It was one hell of a night.

A popular holiday park built around a 13th century castle. This is not your typical location for a paranormal investigation, a holiday park full of luxury caravans and holiday makers spending their weekends boating on the lake, or playing on the arcades and fruit machines. What they’re all blissfully unaware of however is the darker side of this particular holiday park. The ghosts and ghouls that roam the older parts. These include the Victorian lady who roams the Rotunda, the small child seen within the summer house, and the man seen walking through the Italian gardens.
Would I encounter any of these phantoms when my team and I investigated this holiday park one summer’s night?
Let’s find out together.
Tonight, join me for a very special episode, as in the month that my new book Paranormal Northumberland is released, we head to that very county and turn our attention, rather unusually, to Haggerston Castle Holiday Park.

Over the previous three episodes we’ve looked at all manner of scary, dark, places, and as we near the end of our adventure you’ll be pleased to hear that there’s still plenty of ghosts, ghouls, and all manner of otherworldly entities just lying in wait for us.
So, tonight, join me as we embark on the final leg of our Ghost Trail, and for the last time ask just how haunted is County Durham?

In episode 35 we began our terrifying trail of County Durham, a historic county with breath-taking scenery, award winning attractions, and 11 million visitors from all over the world each and every year.

So, tonight, join me as we continue our tour, and ask just how haunted is County Durham?

This time out we’re going to take the first steps on a very exciting journey which will see us not just look at one location, we’re going to turn our attention to an entire county. A county, which has been occupied for around 4,000 years and has a rich, yet bloody, history. And then there are the spooks, specters and phantoms that are said to be found at every turn across this ancient county.
Tonight, join me for a very special episode as we begin a month-long ghost trail and ask how haunted is County Durham?
