Episode Shownotes

Week 2 of our Halloween countdown spooky season shorts has dropped! It’s the most wonderful time of the year, so get into the spirit of the season with us as we share true spooky encounters from Kitty, Emily and Kate; meet some of the ghosts of haunted Cade’s Cove; and hear about our mishaps with haunted objects. Get those pumpkins a-glowing! https://knockonceforyes.com/2025/10/11/spooky-season-shorts-ghost-stories-for-halloween-week-2/

In the run up to our Halloween special we thought we’d bring you some fun sized mini episodes, featuring some fun sized spooky stories, each week leading up to Halloween. So, strap yourselves in for the first trio of terrors from Kathryn, Kate and Bea! Errata: Fitz claimed in the episode that Benjamin Franklin was buried at the Old Granary Burial Ground in Boston. This was incorrect, he is actually buried in the Christ Church Burial Ground in Philadelphia. It is Benjamin Franklin's parents that are buried in the Old Granary.

This is the final instalment of our 3-part poltergeist series, and today we’re wrapping up with the less well known but very curious tale of Brian’s Poltergeist. On the last weekend of May, 1967, a new family moved into a modest terraced house in a large East Midlands town and they, along with most of their neighbours, were to experience an incredible spate of paranormal activity. Episode Shownotes

This episode we dive into the weird and wonderful world of Poltergeist raps in part 2 of our three-part poltergeist themed series of Curious Cases.

Last episode we heard about Dr Barrie Colvin’s investigations into Andover’s rapping Poltergeist, and this time we pick up the trail again to discover what Barrie did next – a rabbit hole that had us running around KOFY HQ hitting the walls with sticks and questioning everything we thought ever thought we understood about poltergeists.

Join us for a spooky exploration of Dr Colvin’s research, and our own experimental efforts, as we discover the very strange audio phenomenon of poltergeist raps. Episode Shownotes

Join us for part 1 of our 3-part Poltergeist miniseries, as we take a slight departure from our normal format to share the story of the Andover Poltergeist.

Don’t worry, our regular format will be coming back, but we hope you will also enjoy exploring some fascinating paranormal rabbit holes with us in our new Curious Cases series of mini-episodes.

This time we share an intriguing poltergeist case from the 1970’s that occurred a few years before the more famous Enfield case, and was investigated in a truly interesting way by member of the Society for Psychical Research; Dr Barrie Colvin.

We will be hearing more about Dr Colvin’s work in part 2, but for now, let us transport you back to the 1970’s and a terraced council house in the south of England, whose resident family are having nightly conversations … with a poltergeist! Shownotes

This episode we're going to be having a little bit of a catchup to let you all know what’s been going on here at KOFY HQ, and we’ll be sharing our favourite spooky adventures with our beloved rust-bucket – the KOFYmobile - as we prepare to bid farewell to our trusty adventure van. 

We’ve got Stories from Ted, Leigh and Kat

And, following on from a really interesting and fun post in our facebook group – we’re bringing you a new game – cos you all know how much we love a good cheesy game – Paranormal Bingo!
