The phenomenon of poltergeist activity is a puzzling one. The term poltergeist literally translates to "knocking spirit". In German folklore poltergeists are mischievous, naughty, and destructive entities. But what brings forth this type of activity? Are they ghosts? Echoes from the past? Or perhaps, a metaphysical response to a very natural part of growing up? Regardless of what causes this activity, being in the midst of it is nothing short of terrifying. Today our storyteller Rory takes us back to his seriously spirited childhood home. A place where the activity was equal parts horrifying and confounding.

Today we are headed on a paranormal journey to some of the most haunted locations in all of America. Kathleen, of Witch City Paranormal, shares with us the stories that have fundamentally changed and challenged her as a paranormal investigator. Buckle up for a wild ride through insane asylums, haunted funeral homes, spirited prisons, and portals to the other side.

Welcome to the second instalment of my favourite short yet scary stories. I have conducted over 100 interviews for The West London Witch, but not all of those stories fit our structure. So what happened to them? Well the main reason a story does not make it onto the show is because it is simply too short. However, today I decided it was time to dust off some more of my favourite mini stories. I hope you enjoy this collection of boo moments that were just too spooky to sit hidden away on my hard drive.

Today we are slipping into a historical time loop of mystery, rebellion, frustration, and deadly deeds. When Beckie-Ann Galentine arrived at The Black Horse Tavern to film a paranormal documentary, she was expecting a spooky yet benign haunting. What she was not prepared for was an investigation fraught with dissent, anger, and spirits that may never be at rest. Prepare yourself for a wild adventure, full of history, haunts, and spirits of all kinds.

It would not be a complete season of The West London Witch without our friends from the Eastern Connecticut Paranormal Society. In this very special episode, Co-Founder David takes us deep into one of the most iconic and incredible investigations the team has ever taken on. This not your average home hunting, but rather a tragic story that spans over 50 years.

Todays episode is all about New England urban legends and the intersection between tall tales and real life encounters. Rosie Grant is best known for her cemetery storytelling. Rosie recreates recipes found on gravestones across the US and shares them on her Instagram and Tik Tok Ghostly Archives. However, the stories she is sharing with us today or not sweet treats, but rather terrifying encounters with the unknown. What is lurking deep in the woods? Mothman? Bunnyman? Bigfoot? Or just scared teenagers? It's up to you to decided!

In the city of Buffalo New York, stands the historic Iron Island Museum. Circa 1883, this once church come funeral home has now been lovingly and beautifully converted into a neighborhood museum, displaying a lot more than just artifacts and exhibits. The Iron Island Museum is touted as one of the most haunted locations in New York and after today’s episode, I have no doubt that you will agree.

Built in 1847, this once modest timber framed school house has grown and evolved into a stunning and sprawling palace for the paranormal. Today Courtney, a travel blogger and paranormal investigator, takes us deep inside the one location that still haunts her to this very day. Although the seminary is now empty, it is still teeming with former residents and endless volumes of haunted history.

There is no doubt that the most famous paranormal investigators of the 20th and 21st century are Ed and Lorraine Warren. Their work has been immortalised in movies, books, podcasts, and endless documentaries. Although Ed and Lorraine have now passed on, their work continues. Today Chris McKinnell, the grandson of the Warren's, shares with us the case that most profoundly changed and shaped him as a paranormal investigator. The Warren's desire to help those in need lives on through Chris and The Warren Legacy.

Don't forget to join us on Patreon for an extra special and explosive interview. Chris answers all the questions that you may have about the rumours and controversy surrounding his grandparents. This is not an interview you are going to want to miss. https://www.patreon.com/thewestlondonwitch
