Join me on a trip to the seaside, as we head to North Yorkshire and check into a hotel that opened in 1867 as the largest hotel in Europe. The hotel has since seen its fair share of highs and lows, and was even targeted by Adolf Hitler during World War II as being perfect for his base in England. Today the hotel is, sadly, a budget hotel but it is still a popular, historic, retreat for those heading to this delightful town. And of course it’s rumoured to be haunted, but just what eerie...

Originally released for Patreons at Halloween 2023 I hope you enjoy this very special episode. Join me, as my team I step foot inside an ancient inn, labelled by many as the most haunted in Britain. We would have a night that none of us would ever forget. But just what happened when my team and I once again headed to York, the most haunted city in the world, and dared to ask just how haunted is the Golden Fleece? To get episodes such as this sooner, you can become a Patreon for £3 a month,...

The culmination of Vampire Month sees us head into the heart of Transylvania, and we will delve deep into the life and death of Vlad III Dracula, a man who undoubtedly influenced Bram Stoker’s decision to place his Dracula here. We will then go in search of ghosts in three gothic castles with ties to not only Vlad, but Dracula himself. This Halloween night join me in asking just how haunted are the vampiric castles of Transylvania? Huge thanks to Yvonne and David from the Scottish Ghost...

In the 26th Patreon bonus podcast you join me for a very special Halloween Patreon episode as I am on location in the Scottish Borders. You will come with me as I walk these ancient streets and ramparts, and tell you the dark history and ghost stories of the most northern town in England. And of course this October is Vampire Month on the How Haunted? podcast, and there are vampires to found here as you’ll hear not one, but two stories of those neck-obsessed creatures of the night. So join me...

We continue Vampire Month by going in search of Dracula in an English seaside town which has fully embraced its status as the gothic capital of the UK. As we get ever closer to Halloween we will explore in depth why this place is so intrinsically linked to vampires, I will guide you on a tour of the locations with ties to Dracula, and we will look for ghosts and ghouls in some of the town’s oldest, and most iconic, structures. So lets’ ask together, can Dracula be found in Whitby? Support How...

This time out, we continue Vampire Month by heading across the pond to the oldest neighbourhood in the city of New Orleans, and it’s here we will go in search of those blood sucking creatures who stalk in the dead of night. Not only will we look at the vampiric connections to this place, but we will, of course, seek out the ghosts and ghouls that may be found here. So let us ask together, just how haunted is New Orleans’ French Quarter? Support How Haunted? by subscribing and leaving a...

The scariest month of the year is here, so let us begin a month of weekly episodes themed for those shape shifting, coffin dwelling, blood sucking monsters – the vampire. To kick off Vampire Month on the How Haunted? podcast, we will look at the origins, and evolution, of the vampire legend, and then we will head across the globe to explore a number of locations which may offer up evidence that vampires may well be more than merely myth. Join me tonight, as together we ask the question, could...

Join me once again on a paranormal investigation at a building dating from the 14th century. Last episode you’ll have heard what happened when we entered the tower for the first time and attempted to communicate with the ghosts that reside here, in particular the White Lady, and there’s so much more to hear. So, lets ask together just how haunted in Cresswell Pele Tower? You can find out about Spiritus Paranormal's forthcoming events at www.spiritusparanormal.co.uk You can check out Rob's...

In the 25th Patreon bonus podcast we're doing something a little bit special. In April I found a hard drive containing audio from four investigations that I conducted in 2011 and 2012. Dozens of hours of audio that I lost around a decade ago, and I thought was lost forever. These were four absolutely incredible locations, and I have covered all four investigations - minus the audio from that night - on the podcast previously. So in the Patreon specials across June, July, August, and September...

This time our we do something a little bit different, as you join me in the remote Northumbrian countryside at a pele tower dating from the 14th century. I join Spiritus Paranormal for a paranormal investigation, and I’m taking you along with me as not only will I tell you all about the history, the legends, and the ghost stories, but I’ll talk you through every aspect of our investigation on that summer’s night, and you’ll hear the actual audio so you can hear what happened, exactly as it...

This time we conclude our time in the Czech Republic by visiting a place nicknamed the bone church for obvious reasons as the skeletons of up to 70,000 human beings have been used to create all manner of decorative pieces for this church, understandably considered by many to be one of the scariest places on the planet. But are there any ghosts to be found here? Lets’ ask together, just how haunted is the Sedlec Ossuary? August's Partner Podcast is Technically a Conversation, find out all...

In the 24th Patreon bonus podcast you join me at a magnificent building we visited back in episode 21 of the podcast, but we're doing something a little bit special. In April I found a hard drive containing audio from four investigations that I conducted in 2011 and 2012. Dozens of hours of audio that I lost around a decade ago, and I thought was lost forever. These were four absolutely incredible locations, and I have covered all four investigations - minus the audio from that night - on the...

Originally released for Patreon supporters in September 2023 I hope you enjoy this very special episode.   In the 13th Patreon bonus podcast I make the short 20 minute drive to the village of Springwell in Sunderland to investigate Bowes Railway Museum.   But what would happen when my team and I joined an organised investigation to see what would happen in this former railway once darkness fell? In this episode not only will I tell you all about the location and our investigation, but...

Let us continue our time in the Czech Republic and visit a former prison in the heart of the country’s capital, Prague. This tower is named for it’s first, and most famous, inmate, a man who some believe never left and remains here in death. What will the Director for the Department of Tourism have to tell me when I speak with him about the ghosts of this structure within the Prague Castle complex? And I will read you an email from a listener who visited while on holiday and has a tale to...

We begin a month of episodes from the Czech Republic, starting at a 13th century castle a little less than 50 miles from Prague, which has been the subject of debate since it was constructed as no one truly understands its purpose. Could this fortress actually be the last line of defense against nightmarish creatures from the depths of hell? Lets’ find out together, as we ask how haunted is Houska Castle? August's Partner Podcast is Technically a Conversation, find out all about this...

This time you join me on location in the wild, remote, Northumberland countryside, and we’re on a monster hunt as I search for an eight-foot-tall creature covered in thick hair, with glowing eyes, who causes the ground to shake whenever it is present. In early 2002 the nation's imagination was captured by the notion that this country park could be home to a bigfoot-type creature. Of course the area has a ghost, in the shape of the Bonny Lass of Belsay, and I will tell you of some of the other...

You join me for a third, and final time, at a 4600 year old site, which contains the largest megalithic stone circle in the world. This time we take a look at one of the largest, and most impressive Neolithic burial sites in Britain. We don’t know how many early humans were buried here, but we do know that this place appears to be haunted. So, lets’ ask together one more time, just how haunted is Avebury? Huge thank you to Emma for joining me, and you can find all of her blogs, including the...

Originally released for Patreons in August 2023 I hope you enjoy this very special episode. A castle built in the 13th century which now operates as a four star hotel is home to all manner of things that go bump in the night. In the Robert the Bruce room people see a figure walking through their room on a spiral staircase which no longer exists, and a shadowy figure which walks through the wall in the Wallace Suite. But there’s so much more. But what would I experience when my team and I...

This time you join me at one of the best known prehistoric sites in Britain, containing the largest megalithic stone circle in the world. This location is as mysterious, as it is historic, and with the summer solstice on the horizon, let’s deep dive into this location, and seek to find the ghosts that lurk here. Lets’ ask together, just how haunted is Avebury? Huge thank you to Emma for joining me, and you can find all of her blogs, including the series about Avebury at...

Originally released for Patreons in July 2023 I hope you enjoy this very special episode. A tourist attraction in the heart of one of the scariest cities anywhere on earth, offering frightening fun to families who enjoy ghoulish and gory stories told by actors made up as characters from this city’s dark past. When the public have gone home, and this intentionally creepy building is left empty and silence, could there be more to it than meets the eye?  With rumours of strange lights appearing...
