Ep 128 - Is the North or South of England More Haunted?

from How Haunted? Podcast | Horrible Histories, Real Life Ghost Stories, and Paranormal Investigations from Some of the Most Haunted Places on Earth · host Rob Kirkup

In episode 128, we confront a question sent in by a listener: is the north or the south of England more haunted? From fog-laden streets where shadowy figures seem to linger just out of sight, to ancient halls where the air itself feels thick with memory, this is a land where the past never quite lets go. Darkened castles, abandoned prisons, and lonely manor houses all tell their stories if you know how to listen—and sometimes, if you’re brave enough, to see. So join me as we wander the spectral geography of England, and ask just how haunted is the north and south of England and which is more haunted? Huge thanks to all of the polterguests who took the time to get involved in the north vs south debate.
