The Hat Man and The Tower of London

from Arcanum Obscura · host Obscure Kitten

Hello hello hello, we are back after an unfortunate and expensive missed week. On the way back home to record my car ceased living, the alternator went kaput. Nate was kind enough to arrive and let me sit in the AC while we waited on a tow truck after an hour of trying to get the car working, so about 3 hours of wasted time which was pretty much our recording time for the day. I replaced the alternator so some good news at least. But we are back, today we have a mix of supernatural and paranormal. I have the odd occurrence or I guess better wording would be the odd entity reported by people who are in a state of sleep paralysis or put into a state of sleep paralysis through fear by the being known as The Hat Man. Reported cases from around the world all describe a very similar figure watching them in a shadow as they are paralyzed. After the story of The Hat Man Nate dives into some of the hauntings of The Tower of London. Multiple spirits have been reported still roaming and wailing about in the fort, some of the suspected hauntings are very well-known names, some a bit lesser-known, then one strange one that had me laughing. We hope you enjoy the episode!
