The Quantum Mechanics - Paranormal Podcast

What happens when your dog stands on 2 legs and attempts to kidnap a lorry driver?

Pulling together some of the work of Tom Lyons, we look at some first-hand encounters with strange things in woods, dark roads and logging tracks.

Are they all evidence of the paranormal, or can we find other ways to explain some of this weirdness?

When you start hearing strange noises, and things start disappearing from your home you might think you have a ghost, a poltergeist, or you're loosing your mind. But maybe you have a phrogger in the attic. Someone secretly living in your home.

Most pet owners have that feeling that their animals know more than they reasonably could be expected to if relying on 'normal' senses.

In this episode we embrace the research that demonstrates the extraordinary 'magical' abilities of our companions - explainable, or more evidence of a universal consciousness or telepathy?

There are a number of conspiracies that claim the Vatican has a secret archive, packed with controversial documents and suppressed technologies. Whether it is a device that can film the past, secret papers from Nicola Tesla, or the Churches involvement in Antartica, and UFO research. We try and separate the facts from the fiction.

When a drug user allows a serviceman gone AWOL into his home, weird stuff starts happening. On the surface of it, it sounds like a delusion - or maybe something exotic such as fairy-folk. But what if it's something a whole lot more man-made, designed to use citizens in a test for something quite sinister?

Gnomes, greys, or defence contractors? - that's the question!

This week we are swimming in entities that can shift from solid to liquid form. We have a white horse from Wales that can transform into mist; a cryptid who is so ashamed of the way it looks it can disappear into a pool of it's own tears; and a ghostly apparition in the form of a pillar of water.

This episode was recorded live in front of a festival crowd at Strange Days 2026.

Ben discusses his experiences with corn circle observations in 1990 - Operation Blackbird was a BBC and Nippon TV joint venture to capture the formation of a crop formation, to determine what was causing it.

The summer of this year saw the tabloids featuring ever more elaborate circles all over Wiltshire - so the interest was high.

What happened next killed off mainstream interest in the phenomenon, but was it a psi op? Ben has information never before discussed in public - he was there the morning the formation was captured.

We then discuss the work of Robert Temple, which might explain what we are seeing - and why Wiltshire contains so many monuments to a sentience which we might be ignoring.

All this, plus Spinal Tap samples.

What if the solid, separate world is only the shallow end — and reality, underneath, is a single undivided whole, folded so completely that every fragment contains the entire thing? This episode takes on the strangest idea the show has ever tackled: that the universe and the human brain might both work like a hologram. It's the theory that turns telepathy, precognition, impossible healings, and out-of-body experiences from violations of nature into clues about it — traced through the work of a neuroscientist, a physicist who spent six months arguing with Einstein, and the doomed writer who tied it all together a year before his death.

In the 1990s, a small group of people in rural England claimed to produce extraordinary evidence of life after death — including spirit voices, photographs, physical objects and messages from the dead. The Scole Experiments became one of the most intriguing and controversial investigations in paranormal history. But were they genuine paranormal wonders, or an elaborate and carefully executed hoax?

A look at nine poltergeist cases that rarely make the famous lists — no Enfield, no Amityville, no Bell Witch. Drawing on newspaper archives, Guy Lyon Playfair, Society for Psychical Research journal papers, and first-person Reddit accounts, this episode examines stories that we found surprising.

Cases covered:

• Sauchie, Scotland (1960) — 11-year-old Virginia Campbell, witnessed by a minister and three doctors.
• Runcorn, Cheshire (1952) — the "Brutus" case that reached Life magazine and reportedly threw three police officers.
• Stratford, Connecticut (1850) — the Rev. Eliakim Phelps house and its self-assembling effigies.
• South Shields (2005–06) — threatening texts allegedly sent from a phone with no SIM or battery.
• Jaboticabal, Brazil (1965) — the tragic case of Maria José Ferreira.
• San Pedro, Los Angeles (1989) — the attic strangling photographed during Barry Taff's investigation.
• Plus anonymous first-person reports from Reddit.

Are polts created by the dead, or is there some other reason for this very strange phenomenon?
