  • Ep 93 - Scarborough's Grand Hotel
    Nov 8 2024

    Join me on a trip to the seaside, as we head to North Yorkshire and check into a hotel that opened in 1867 as the largest hotel in Europe. The hotel has since seen its fair share of highs and lows, and was even targeted by Adolf Hitler during World War II as being perfect for his base in England. Today the hotel is, sadly, a budget hotel but it is still a popular, historic, retreat for those heading to this delightful town.

    And of course it’s rumoured to be haunted, but just what eerie phenomena is said to occur within this once great building?

    Let’s head to the seaside and ask together, just how haunted is Scarborough’s Grand Hotel?

  • Halloween 2024 - Vampire Month: The Vampiric Castles of Transylvania
    Oct 25 2024

    The culmination of Vampire Month sees us head into the heart of Transylvania, and we will delve deep into the life and death of Vlad III Dracula, a man who undoubtedly influenced Bram Stoker’s decision to place his Dracula here. We will then go in search of ghosts in three gothic castles with ties to not only Vlad, but Dracula himself.

    This Halloween night join me in asking just how haunted are the vampiric castles of Transylvania?

    Huge thanks to Yvonne and David from the Scottish Ghost Company for talking to me about their night in Bran Castle.

Absolutely Brilliant

Absolutely love Rob's podcast. he's an extremely knowledgeable man who puts his historical expertise into every story he tells and I'm not sure what part I like better..... the history or the ghosts!

Overall, one of the top podcasts I listen to and would recommend to anybody with an interest in history, ghosts or both!

Excellent storytelling

Rob weaves together a narrative of both the history and paranormal expertly. Episodes are well researched and bring to life the stories of locations without over-the-top dramatics. Highly recommended
