‘At first, I wasn't sure if it was the house or if it was me, but throughout a period of around eight months I came to realise that I had a doppelganger...one that followed me but stayed in the shadows; one that would appear without being seen; one that would torment and terrify me. Nobody else saw us together, but on the rare occasions I would have friends say that they had spotted me out somewhere and I didn't react, or that they had approached me to speak to me, but I would give them the coldest and evilest glares they had ever seen.’ A witness who had been haunted by their doppelgänger.

This is episode 31 of the Haunted UK Podcast, and this time we're going to hear stories about the strange phenomenon that is the doppelgänger.

Do you love ghost stories, tales of haunted houses and poltergeist encounters? What about other areas of the paranormal – such as strange creatures, doppelgangers, time slips and even creepy unexplained disappearances? If you do, then you're in the right place — these are the topics which we'll be visiting every two weeks in the many future episodes and seasons of this show. Also…to ensure you get the best immersive listening experience possible, there will be no advertisements in the main content of this episode.

The show's end of season finale revolves around the experiences and stories from listeners just like you…so, if you have had an encounter with any element of the paranormal — and you would like to share your story, then I would love to tell it for you on the Listeners’ Stories finale episode.
