‘The guys at work would tell me about the ‘’man who runs through the factory’’ during the “nights”. Now although I was a firm believer in the paranormal, I was young and brushed it off. A few months passed without me having to work a nightshift but then I got my chance …’


This is Haunted UK Podcast’s ‘Short Haunts’, and this is the tale of ‘The Sprinter’ … a story of a man so beside himself with terror during a solitary nightshift that he had to abandon his work and get the hell out. Because, quite frankly, he wondered if hell was already inside …

Short Haunts: The Shadow in the Cemetery.
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: The Shadow in the Cemetery.
As teenagers, many of us have had experiences which have in some way shaped our lives a little. A memorable holiday perhaps, a special friendship, happy memories of those days when you and your friends would gather and spend as much time together as possible ... knowing ... that in a few short years ... you would become an adult ... and everything would change.
But what if one of those memories wasn't entirely happy ... what if it was terrifying? What if you'd experienced something that would end up being so burned into your memory, that you couldn't forget it even if you tried?

Short Haunts - The Shadow in the Cemetery

Episode 50 – The Mimic in the House and Other Listeners’ Stories Part 3
I ran upstairs as I usually did but stopped dead on the top step ... as I heard an elderly woman's voice from behind me say ‘yoo-hoo!’. It sounded friendly enough, but terrifying; slowly, I turned around to see who was there …

Short Haunts – Strangers from the Sky

Episode 50 – Experiences of a Witch and Other Listeners’ Stories Part 2
Doors began opening and closing by themselves. Loud banging noises were coming from downstairs, as well as the sounds of footsteps from someone who was clearly walking around the rooms below her bedroom … but it was what happen next, that truly frightened her. As clear as any voice she'd ever heard, someone said the name ‘Azazel’ ... the name from her nightmares, then, as she continued to talk to the Ouija board, the planchette began to move, rapidly spelling out the same name. 
Julie completely freaked out and threw the planchette across the room ... but made the huge mistake of not closing the session down ... not saying goodbye, so whatever was now in the house … was staying in the house. 
This is Episode 50 – Part 2 of the Haunted UK Podcast, and we’re returning for another chilling batch of your stories.
