Ghostly encounters that defy explanation are reported at two haunted houses. Are you brave enough to explore these mysterious cases where the line between the living and the dead blurs, and every shadow holds a secret?
In our first story, we delve into the grisly crimes of a house shrouded in a sinister past. Who—or what—haunts its halls, leaving guests trembling in fear? What secrets lurk within the walls, and why does the specter of violence linger in the darkness?
We then venture to Oaklands, where a chance encounter with a spectral figure sets off a chain of unsettling events. Who is the mysterious woman with the swan-shaped candlestick, and what dark omens does she bring?

Can the most terrifying paranormal activity also be the most boring? Are dull ghosts really the scariest of all?
In this chilling episode, Mark Rees unravels a paranormal theory that turns the mundane into the terrifying. What if the most ordinary ghost stories held a power that could send shivers down your spine?
Delve into a "dull" ghost tale in a Romantic, Gothic house shrouded in eerie charm that may, in fact, be the scariest encounter ever. Imagine encountering a spirit so ordinary, it might make you question turning off the lights tonight. But hold on – there's a twist that will leave you questioning your bedtime routine and challenge your perceptions of ghosts.
Are ghosts simply benign entities, lingering in the shadows with no intention to scare? Could the uncanny feeling in the dark be the gentle presence of spirits from the past? Or is it something far more sinister?

Picture this: snarling spectral dogs traversing the air in hot pursuit of their prey. Their haunting howls are harbingers of death, and their appearance cannot be easily defined, ranging from small white creatures with rose-coloured ears to "ugly beasts" with fiery eyes.
On this chilling episode, we delve into the eerie realm of the Welsh otherworld to unravel the spine-tingling tales of the Cŵn Annwn — the Hounds of the Underworld.
As we navigate through the Welsh countryside, we'll answer the lingering questions: What mysterious figure guides these ghostly packs? Where are the prime locations to witness their ominous processions? And why do they particularly favour certain nights, including New Year's Eve?
Are you curious to uncover the fate of souls deemed unworthy of heaven but not quite wicked enough for hell? Brace yourself for a journey into the supernatural, where every howl and eerie encounter unveils another layer of the mysterious Cŵn Annwn.

A haunting described as "one of the biggest poltergeist cases ever" saw a Welsh business plagued by paranormal activity.
The chilling case of Peter the Poltergeist/ Pete the Polt is one of the most significant poltergeist cases documented. A haunting that spanned a decade, mysterious objects were thrown around a workshop in Cardiff that led the bewildered owners to suspect a paranormal presence.
What sets this case apart is its investigation by a renowned academic and future president of the Society for Psychical Research who revealed a potential connection with a local tragedy and was unable to disprove the events as a hoax.
Was this a mischievous spirit or something else?

Dare you join Mark Rees and a team of paranormal investigators for an "as-live" spine-tingling ghost hunt in Wales?
Nos Calan Gaeaf - as Halloween is known in the Welsh language - is the perfect time of year for ghost stories and, of course, ghost hunting.
The "most haunted" location for this year's eerie exploration is a live music venue in the heart of Swansea city centre just off the Kingsway that has never featured on a recorded investigation before.
The Bunkhouse is a bar where members of staff have long spoken of unexpected supernatural encounters, in recent times and under former names stretching back through the decades, where strange reports speak of uncanny sounds, eerie chills, and all manner of phenomenon in the cellar.
For this paranormal investigation, which was recorded live by Mark, you can expect updates, interviews, and recordings of mysterious events if and when they unfold.
Joining him are the filmmaker Ant Jones, Sarah and Leanne from Cymru Paranormal, Bunkhouse business owner Jordan McGuire, and tackling his first ghost hunt, cultural writer Chris Carra from Planet Health.

Halloween folklore of Wales and the world: explore the haunted history of Nos Calan Gaeaf with Mark Rees and a special guest on this eerie seasonal special.
Nos Calan Gaeaf, as Halloween is known in the Welsh language, has long been a time for tradition and festivities. But how did Victorian celebrations differ from modern-day parties?
By teaming up with fellow cultural writer Chris Carra (Planet Health), they aim to investigate the Halloween folklore of Wales and the world, and delve back into their own childhoods to see how the holiday continues to evolve.
From dressing up as the Ghostbusters in the 1980s to living in Canada, Mark and Chris offer a unique perspective on Halloween celebrations that contrast and complement North American traditions. with those in Wales.
They also look at how the holiday has changed for a new generation, how costumes became part of the Halloween experience, and the history of Halloween games involving apples and candles. They discover the surprising connection between Welsh folklore and modern trick-or-treating, which might have evolved from begging for bread on All Souls' Day into a fun tradition.
And of course, no Halloween folklore episode would be complete without the centuries-old tradition of carving vegetables, including the Welsh swede, to create eerie jack-o'-lanterns, or the even creepier apparition that is the Welsh jac-y-lantern.
If that wasn't enough, they look ahead to this year's big Halloween special: an "as live" ghost hunt in one of Wales's "most haunted" places!

Journey into the haunted heart of Welsh folklore, exploring eerie accounts of encounters with mysterious apparitions known as corpse candles (canwyll corff).
In the 19th and early 20th centuries, innocent individuals walking through the Welsh countryside found themselves face to face with ghostly lights that foretold impending deaths. Tales from Maesydderwen and Silian talk of enigmatic lights that lead to bone-chilling revelations of imminent burials.
These stories have deep roots in Welsh folklore, dating back centuries to the pioneering ghost hunter Rev. Edmund Jones in the 18th century.
There's also an update from Mark about his upcoming projects, including the Halloween episodes which will feature some Nos Calan Gaeaf lore and a paranormal investigation in one of Wales's "most haunted" places.

Corpse candles were once a common sight in Wales. What's truly spine-tingling is that sometimes these lights were carried by ghostly figures, believed to be the very souls soon to depart.
This episode delves into historical cases of individuals who regularly witnessed corpse candles, shedding light on the eerie prevalence of this phenomenon. We also explore the belief that St. David himself prayed for corpse candles to demonstrate the existence of an afterlife.
Corpse candles manifested as pale, slow-moving lights hovering above the ground, with their colours offering clues about the person destined to die. As we uncover the mysteries, there'll also be a preview of this Halloween's plans, and new Ghosts and Folklore of Wales book PARANORMAL CARDIFF.

Can you see, hear, smell and feel a ghost? Can you trust your senses in a haunted location?
The waft of lavender might suggests a Victorian woman’s perfume; a fleeting white shape might suggest the death shroud of a tormented soul; and the sensation of being touched by icy fingers might suggest that somebody, or something, is reaching out to grope you from beyond the veil.
