Uncanny

Danny Robins' historical investigation into a poltergeist in 1960s Pontefract continues.

Mr Nobody has been getting the blame for everything from floating candlesticks, to teeth marks left in sandwiches, but things are about to take a darker turn. As events escalate, one member of the family finds themselves in genuine physical danger - but is it from something paranormal, or something much closer to home?

Resident experts Dr Ciaran O’Keefe and Evelyn Hollow are on hand to weigh the evidence, test theories, and guide listeners through the chilling conclusion to Britain’s most infamous poltergeist tale.

Danny Robins investigates a potential poltergeist haunting in the very first episode of Uncanny Cold Cases, a new series investigating some of the spookiest paranormal events ever documented. The series kicks off with a two-part story that’s been called Britain's most violent ever poltergeist case - The Black Monk of Pontefract.

When the Pritchard family move into 30 East Drive in Pontefract, doors slam, objects fly, and the family quickly realise they're not alone in the house. They call the mischievous entity Mr Nobody. Is something supernatural stalking the Pritchards? Or can the team find a more straightforward explanation?

Danny Robins and paranormal experts, hardcore sceptic Dr Ciaran O’Keeffe and writer and parapsychologist Evelyn Hollow, will tackle the nation's most thrilling historical hauntings.

They’ll explore classic cases like ghost hunter Harry Price’s investigation into Borley Rectory, and Britain’s 'most violent poltergeist', The Black Monk of Pontefract, plus some lesser-known gems from the paranormal archives - such as the Sandown Clown on the Isle of Wight, and America’s original UFO abduction story, the Barney and Betty Hill Incident.
