  • Does An EVIL CREATURE Lurk In This HAUNTED Irish Castle?
    Leap Castle in Ireland is referred to as one of the most haunted castles in the country, with countless ghost stories involving mysterious monks, vengeful ladies, and even a malevolent elemental. And with a history said to be as dark and violent as this, you have to wonder… is the elemental still roaming the castle, feeding off everything that happens inside?

  • Was This HAUNTED Graveyard TERRORISED By A VAMPIRE?
    Highgate Cemetery in London is one of the UK's most haunted graveyards, known not only for the famous people buried there, but also the ghosts said to haunt the burial ground. But in the 1970s, Highgate became the centre of a media storm... because supposedly, there was a vampire on the loose.

  • TERRIFYING Hauntings In A Church Used For BLACK MAGIC
    The desecrated church in Clophill became a magnet for vandals, morbid thrill-seekers, and possibly even devil worshippers. But decades later, strange lights, ghostly figures, and an oppressive energy still leave many explorers running for their car. Are the ghost stories proof of something darker still haunting Clophill, or are they just a product of the satanic panic that overtook the area in the 60s?

  • The Desecrated Church That Drove Its Priest to Madness
    In the quiet Bedfordshire village of Clophill sits the ruins of a desecrated church that looks unassuming nowadays, but it has a terrifying past. In the 1960s and 70s, rumours of devil worship, black magic rituals, and grave desecration spiralled into a full-blown satanic panic that almost destroyed the village rector. But was it all just bored teenagers and mindless vandals tormenting the village of Clophill, or was something truly evil going on here? ⚠️ This one is very dark, with some pretty graphic descriptions involving animals, as well as mentions of sexual assault and murder. If that’s not your thing, maybe give this one a miss. Look after yourselves 🖤 SOURCES 📚 Ghosts of Bedfordshire by Betty Puttick 📚 Raising the Devil: Satanism, New Religions, and the Media, By Bill Ellis 📚 The Paranormal Diaries: Clophill, by Kevin Gates 📚 Devil Worship In Britain, by A.V.Sellwood and Peter Haining 💻 https://www.clophillecolodges.co.uk/st-mary-s-old-church 💻 https://metro.co.uk/2016/02/19/does-this-video-show-a-hooded-monk-ghost-creeping-around-a-church-5706153/ 💻 https://clophillhistory.mooncarrot.org.uk/ 💻 http://clophill-lodge.co.uk 💻 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-beds-bucks-herts-45736101 📰 Bedfordshire on Sunday, 1985 COME SAY HI!
