  • Post Mortem: Case 1: The Haunting of Hollymount Farm

    Danny Robins hosts the visualised podcast for real-life supernatural encounters.

    Danny Robins delves deeper into the haunting of Hollymount Farm in this extended podcast episode, uncovering fresh evidence, new leads and revelations about this chilling case. It's a case so intriguing and frightening, it demands further discussion. Is it genuine paranormal activity, or could there be a scientific explanation behind it all?

    Assisting Danny in his search for answers are celebrity guest and Ghosts actor Kiell Smith-Bynoe, to discuss the stand-out moments in the episode; regular paranormal experts Dr Ciarán O’Keeffe and Evelyn Hollow, who further analyse the farm’s unsettling poltergeist activity; and witness Liam, who adds additional insights into this dark and disturbing story.

  • Uncanny Christmas: Christmas Special: Return to Luibeilt

    Christmas 1973, and two young climbers experienced the most terrifying night of their lives in a bothy in the Scottish mountains. The events that took place that night would haunt one of those young men, Phil, for the rest of his life.

    In 2021, Phil told Danny Robins his story, and it became one of the most popular episodes of Uncanny to date. Now, for this special Christmas episode and five decades on from Phil’s original experience, Danny is strapping on his rucksack and heading for the Highlands, to take Phil back to where it all happened.

    Is whatever haunted Luibeilt still there? Will Danny survive the night?
