Brace yourself for a little discussed haunting that shook a local church, and became a teaching tool for priests. In 1965, the Acton Vale Poltergeist didn’t just terrify a family, it forced three Catholic priests to admit they were witnessing something truly beyond explanation. They believed it was a demonic infestation.

In this episode, we dive deep into the verified archives to uncover the aggressive and violent phenomena that targeted a young girl and the men of the cloth who stood their ground against it. Was it a haunting, or something DIABOLICAL? 

Note: This case features a Catholic/ Byzantine religion painting called #OurLadyofPerpetualHelp. The painting was said to be alive, which makes it so weird that I got comments saying that today (the day this came out, June 27th) is the feast day for this very painting. That was totally not planned. Of all the days. Isn’t that a little eerie?

In this video, we explore:

-The eyewitness accounts of the three priests on the scene.
-The violent physical manifestations that defied the laws of physics.
-The chilling aftermath and it's implications for us.

• The "Silent Screamer" of Beacon Hill Park: A timeline of the sightings.
  
  
• The tragic case of Donna Mitchell and the "Negative Image" doppelgänger.
  
  
• Can a location be haunted by an event that hasn't happened yet?

Fox Hollow Farm is a beautiful 18-acre estate in Indiana, but beneath its scenic surface lies a history of unimaginable horror. When Robert and Vicky Graves moved in, they knew they were living in the former home of notorious serial killer Herb Baumeister. What they didn't know was that the darkness he left behind hadn't gone anywhere.

In this episode of Into the Fog, we explore the chilling paranormal legacy of Fox Hollow Farm. From the "man in the red shirt" haunting the treeline to the terrifying encounters in the indoor swimming pool, we delve into a haunting that raises a disturbing question: Is the house haunted by the victims, the killer, or something far more sinister and inhuman?

In this video, we discuss:

• The horrifying discovery of over 5,000 bone fragments on the property.
  
  
• The "I-70 Strangler" and the dual life of Herb Baumeister.
  
  
• The terrifying firsthand accounts of Joe LeBlanc and his dog, Fred.
  
  
• The "inhuman" presence detected by paranormal investigators.
  
  
• The shocking final confessions and unanswered questions surrounding an accomplice.

Is it a home intruder... or a haunting? When a shadow begins to rattle the door handle of a coastal village home and a presence watches from the window, two teenage girls are left in terror. While the police dismiss the threat as a simple burglar, the paranormal activity only escalates.

In this true scary story, we explore the Alnmouth haunting, featuring a chilling encounter with a "floating head" on the staircase and a local medium who delivers a warning that changes everything: "Leave him outside."

This isn't a standard ghost story. It’s a battle for the threshold of a home against an entity—perhaps several—that refuses to move on. Join Peter Laws as we step into the fog to investigate this unheard UK haunting.

In 1974, a small house on Lindley Street in Bridgeport, Connecticut, became the centre of one of the most well-documented paranormal investigations in history. But this wasn't just a story told by terrified residents. It it was witnessed by the local police, fire fighters, reporters and priests. 
Join Peter Laws as we step "Into the Fog" to examine the Bridgeport Poltergeist. We delve into the police reports that describe furniture moving of its own accord, objects levitating, and a level of chaos that left seasoned officers questioning reality. Why did authority figures risk their reputations to report the impossible? And what really happened behind those doors? I also explore this cases link to controversial investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, sharing my own thoughts on them. 
We explore the chilling eyewitness accounts and the investigative files that make this case a cornerstone of paranormal history.  
In this video, we discuss:
The official police testimony from the Lindley Street haunting.
Eyewitness accounts of unexplained physical phenomena.
The legacy of the Bridgeport Poltergeist in the world of the supernatural.

In 1990, Samantha Fairweather moved her family into a grand mansion converted into quirky apartments. Their top-floor home came with a strange feature: a narrow wooden balcony that led to a complete dead end. It was here that the unsettling activity began.

First came the footsteps—heavy, deliberate stomping that echoed past their bedroom windows late at night. But every time they rushed to the door to confront the intruder, the balcony was empty. With nowhere for a person to run or hide, the family was left with a chilling question: who, or what, was walking outside their door?

The mystery only deepened when a personal object vanished from a locked room, appearing moments later in a neighbor's flat under impossible circumstances. But nothing could prepare them for the night the entire structure changed forever.

Yet the situation would grow worse, leading to one shocking night of catastrophe.

Join Peter Laws as he explores a true story of haunting anomalies, and a building that refuses to stay silent.

In this video:

The enigma of the heavy footsteps on a dead-end walkway.

An impossible "teleportation" that left two families baffled.

The catastrophic event that defied engineering logic.

Talk of the abandoned mansion, which still "glows" at night today.

I guarantee that you have never heard this chilling haunted house case before. It began in Kentucky in 1977, with a Ouija board session, which seemed to unlock a series of terrifying events witnessed by the Green family. Strap in for a series of truly unique and nightmarish events, including a spine-tingling phone conversation with a presence that somehow called from inside the house. 

This case took place in the Dixie Housing Project, Prestonsburg, in the mountains of eastern Kentucky: just 0.7 miles from the site of a catastrophic 1958 school bus disaster. Could there be a chilling link?

These events are never fictionalised. 
The witnesses are real. 
The locations are real. 
And as of today, none of it is fully explained.

A forgotten 1889 haunting… a violent poltergeist… and a voice that claimed to be the Devil.

In this episode of Into the Fog, I uncover one of the most disturbing and little-known paranormal cases in Canadian history: The Dagg Farm Haunting.

After finding a long-lost book and cross-checking it with historical records, I’ve pieced together a chilling story of a rural family in Clarendon, Quebec, whose quiet farmhouse became the centre of terrifying supernatural activity.

We’re not just talking about moving objects or strange noises.

This case includes:
 • Spontaneous fires 
 • Windows shattering with no cause
 • Objects flying violently through the air
 • Human waste mysteriously appearing across the house
 • A young girl physically attacked… her hair torn from her scalp
 • And most disturbing of all… a disembodied voice speaking obscene and threatening words

Multiple witnesses, including a visiting investigator, heard the voice for themselves. It claimed to be the Devil… and said it had been sent to torment the family.

But was this a genuine supernatural haunting… a hoax… or an invasion of some kind of demonic force. I don’t say this often, but I’m tempted to say this one is demonic. After listening all the way through, you’ll understand why. 

And after tracking down the original location and speaking with current property owners, I ask the question: Did whatever haunted the Dagg family truly leave… or has it lingered?

In 1991, a young girl named Judith flatlined for eight minutes on an operating table at Dryburn Hospital, County Durham. During those eight minutes, she left her body...and what she experienced on the other side would change her life forever.

When she came back, she wasn't alone.

What followed was decades of escalating paranormal activity: poltergeist disturbances, shadow figures, disembodied voices calling her name from the attic, and a presence that refuses to leave. Multiple witnesses, including an ex-military specialist (whom I spoke to for this episode). Judith even says that horror icon Kane Hodder (Jason Voorhees himself) experienced the phenomenon firsthand, while at a horror convention.

What's more...this case is still happening today.

Special thanks to Rob Kirkup of How Haunted? and Rob of DeadAirTV for their help during our research into Dryburn Hospital, and for replying so quickly to our queries. Their expert knowledge of local hauntings, investigations, and the area’s history was greatly appreciated.

Toby grew up in a remote forest house on Rame Road, Greenhithe, New Zealand. Built on Māori land his home never felt right. Especially the stone outbuilding covered in ritualistic paintings and handprints — prompting rumours of demonic worship and witchcraft.

Then one night in the bunkhouse, it came. Tapping at the window. The beginning of a uniquely terrifying haunting, with disturbing links to a real-life double murder - told here for the first time ever.

Expect apparitions, dancing imps, and a dog-headed figure eerily similar to dogman encounters reported worldwide. But the most frightening discovery was what we uncovered about the very land on which this house stood.

What lurked on Rame Road in Greenhithe, NZ… and more to the point, does it roam there still?
