As we deck the halls and trim the trees, even the specters are whispering of holiday mysteries. Linda's contemplating giving the Christmas fuss a miss, heading to her folks' for the festive cheer. As for me, Clinton? I might just play host this year, though my pantry's as empty as a ghost town!

In this chilling episode, we unwrap an email from Nina Coward, who shares a haunting memory from her childhood. Imagine a dark road in Hatfield and a mysterious woman, garbed in an era long past, sending shivers down the spine of every passerby. "No Gary, just drive!" her mother exclaimed. What compelled her to shout? We'll delve deep in our Zoom call with Nina.

Then, from the pages of Take a Break Fate and Fortune, we read 'It's Play Time' – a tale that will make you listen closely the next time a baby cries. A converted old house, a nursery that echoes with sobs, a loft room alight with otherworldly energy... what secrets does it hold?

I also drop by Ruth's place in Erskin Court, extending an olive branch and a Christmas invite. It's set to be a cozy affair at Erskin, just Ruth, her roast potatoes, and me... though Neil's festive plans are up in the air!

Jane Wallace stakes her claim in the paranormal annals, deciphering a story of a recurring musical track. Is it a message from the beyond? Jane weighs in.

Jack Gleadow's tale scores a paltry 2 out of 10 on our spectral scale. A man at the end of his bed – sleep paralysis, or something more sinister? You be the judge.

And not forgetting Luke Jones, who tells of a ghostly encounter during a radio show's ghost hunt. Stagehands unseen, objects moving of their own accord – the Tyne Theatre's secrets laid bare.

Lastly, we connect with Liv Beards from Wolverhampton, live from her library. She recounts a conversation with a person that was never there.

Lots of Love, until next time.
