Tonight on The Darkling Chronicles, I've got three real paranormal stories for you, and there are some seriously creepy moments in this one.

We begin with a family who slowly realise that their daughter may have accidentally brought something home with her… and whatever followed her doesn't seem particularly keen on leaving.

Then, a childhood sleepover takes a terrifying turn when a boy wakes to something pulling the duvet from his bed. What he sees is bad enough, but it's the rancid smell accompanying the shadowy figure that makes the encounter even more disturbing.

And finally, imagine seeing your friend, thinking nothing of it, and carrying on with your day…

Only to discover that when you saw him, he was already dead.

Tonight's stories were written by Alan Tigwell, and I'd like to give Alan a massive thank you for allowing me to share them with you. I absolutely loved reading these and we'll definitely be returning to Alan's stories for more episodes.

Tonight on The Darkling Chronicles, we're heading back into the darker corners of the internet for another collection of allegedly true paranormal encounters...and there are some absolute horrors in this one.

A family laughs about the ghost haunting their apartment until something happens beside their four-month-old baby's cot.

A man grows up in a house with decades of unexplained activity, including a smiling figure watching from an upstairs window.

A seven-year-old hears a mysterious voice tell him not to walk down the stairs... moments before something violent happens below.

And one man meets an old friend for lunch before suddenly remembering one rather important detail...

His friend is dead.

We also have shadow figures, apparitions, unexplained voices, a VERY jealous ghost and plenty more things that frankly have no business wandering around people's houses.

Quick apology from me: the audio and video quality on this episode is so annoying. My Wi-Fi has apparently decided to become a paranormal entity itself, but new Wi-Fi is being installed very soon😂 Thank you for bearing with me!

ALSO... Alan! 😂

I completely forgot to finish the point I was making about Alan during the episode. I will be reading his book and talking about it properly in an upcoming podcast, so keep an eye out for that one!

Thank you as always for watching, listening, commenting and sending me your experiences. 🖤

Now turn the lights down, get comfortable...

Tonight we're stepping into some of the most chilling paranormal encounters ever shared by military personnel.

From haunted Air Force bases and abandoned barracks to shadow figures, unexplained voices, terrifying sleep paralysis and soldiers who swear they came face to face with something they still can't explain... these are real stories told by the people who experienced them.

Military life is built on discipline, logic and training. So when trained professionals admit they've witnessed something beyond explanation, it makes these accounts even more unsettling.
