S04-E10 - The Attic and Other Listeners’ Stories - Part 1

A child’s footsteps cross an empty bedroom.A university house turns dark, cold and oppressive.And in an attic room, something unseen begins to tear at the silence.In this first listener stories collection of the season, Haunted UK Podcast gathers a powerful range of true paranormal experiences from people whose encounters have stayed with them for years.These accounts move from a haunted lodge house in Cornwall, where phantom footsteps, impossible arrivals and strange figures appear around the family home, to rumours of a beast near an RAF base, a large black cat sighting on Askham Fell in Cumbria, and a chilling account of sleep paralysis that shows how frightening the human mind can become when the body cannot move.The episode also explores Kensington Palace, with reports of ghostly humming, phantom legs, vanished figures, galloping horses and echoes of long-forgotten royal gatherings. It closes with Geoff’s remarkable childhood account from a cottage in west Wales, where multiple witnesses appear to see the same solid apparition of a former blacksmith.At the centre of the collection is Claire’s disturbing account of a student house in Nottingham — a place of oppressive atmospheres, violent footsteps, ripping paper, insomnia, depression and a presence that seemed to gather strength in the attic.Atmospheric, varied and deeply unsettling, this episode opens the season’s listener stories with haunted homes, strange creatures, royal ghosts and the lingering question of what certain buildings can do to the people who live inside them.Enjoyed the episode?
