Two listeners. Two encounters that ended with the same terrifying certainty: something found exactly what it was looking for, and it was them.

Under a clear night sky, a pale light came straight for Wade. Slow. Deliberate. It stopped at head height and read him page by page. No fear, just a calm that wasn't his. Fourteen months on, one word still haunts him: claimed.

Then Nina looks down at a Welsh lay-by and sees her shadow move on its own. An arm raised while hers hang still, a head turning while she faces forward. Something wearing her outline that forgot to perform. Four years later, it still arrives half a second late.

Producer Dom digs into the dark folklore: the Gnostic archons that catalogue human souls, the djinn that mark their chosen, and the traditions where your shadow was never yours to begin with.

What happens when the paranormal doesn't haunt you: it claims you?
