The Possessed Surgeon

There are lots of stories about psychic surgeons - often they are proven fakes who use chicken entrails to simulate bloody surgery, promising to cure diseases that mainstream doctors have been unable to treat effectively. 
But there is one case that stands out, and may well be real. Could an uneducated manual worker in South America really be possessed by the spirit of a medical genius? He convinced the president  - and today we discover why.

The Warminster Thing

When strange noises began bothering the folk of this small military town nobody could have predicted the havoc that would ensue. From UFO sightings to poltergeist-like activity, Warminster became one of the most visited paranormal destinations in the UK - but, was it real or did one man play a part in creating a flap about nothing? As always, the truth is likely somewhere in the middle - and this week we highlight the reality of this spooky period in British culture.

The 'Fermi Paradox' Paradox

In 1950 Nobel Prize winner Enrico Fermi asked the question "where are all the aliens?". It sparked huge debate as to why we have not encountered advanced extra terrestrial life, and theories that we are alone in the universe. We look into those arguments, and discover the 'Fermi Paradox' is not a paradox and has very little to do with Enrico Fermi.

Our night in haunted Shepton Mallet Prison

We spent the night in one of the world's most haunted prisons. We were not expecting anything spooky. But as you will hear, about half way through, in terms of the paranormal it all kicked off! Ghost sightings, music boxes going off, EVPs and thrown objects. We really don't know what to make of it.

Nuns Possessed

We delve into a case a mass possession, that ripped an idilic French town apart and resulted in the trial and execution of a seemingly innocent man. 

Signs we live in a simulated reality

We delve into scientific research that may prove we live in a simulated reality. What seems like computer code has been found in quantum physics equations and DNA. Even the existence of maths itself could be a sign.

What Are The Plants Thinking?

From the hippy times of the 1960's, a new thinking about plant consciousness emerged - perhaps the humble onion could actually think for itself? It sounds bizarre, but even the CIA was interested in the spying abilities of the humble houseplant. This week we look at how this thinking gave us cybernetics, several horror movies and a modern scientist determined to prove that plants really can think for themselves. We also revisit the Findhorn garden, the god Pan, and the potato king.

Underwater Ghosts

Seeing a ghost on dry land is scary enough, imagine coming across one 60 metres under the sea while scuba diving. In this episode we have stories of haunted pools and divers encountering ghosts beneath the waves. We also featured the Top 10 most haunted diving sites.

Kissing Ghosts and The Slime

The idea of ectoplasm was an innovation in the spiritual movement in the western world - but what was it, how did it work and who did it convince?
In this episode we look at a potted history of the phenomenon, with some surprisingly perplexing moments. Get your cheese-cloth ready!

Cryptid Bugs

When we think of Cryptids, Bigfoot, Werewolves, or Nessie come to mind. But there is a rich vein of lesser known bug like cryptids that are said to exist. We go on the hunt for giant insects that roam our planet, and mini Cryptids that might live within our bodies.
