We return to Hauntology, the cultural phenomenon where some people feel that the media of their 1970s childhoods was decidedly weird.

The team ask who wanted to scare children, and why? Suggesting four foundational 'truths' underpinning Hauntological content; the paranormal is real, the occult is real, UFOs are real and the end is nigh. Dave, Rob and Kevin discuss how these fringe ideas migrated to the main stream.

They then consider three writers whose content is at the heart of Haunted books, TV and film.

The episode rounds off looking at modern responses to the subject.

All this in just over an hour.

There is so much we could not cover, but just like The Daleks, Hauntology will be back.
