Haunted UK Podcast: History, Hauntings and the Unexplained

Haunted UK Podcast has officially moved to Acast.

In this short update, Steve shares what the move means for the future of the show, reflects on how far Haunted UK has come over the past five years, and looks ahead to more history, hauntings, witness accounts, location episodes, and unexplained stories still to come.

3. Premium episode description
An overnight security guard patrols an almost abandoned office block where little ever changes. Empty corridors. Silent lifts. Rows of stripped-back offices left frozen in time.

But on the third floor, one desk remains.

At first, it’s easy to dismiss the strange activity as faulty equipment and exhaustion. A lift opening on its own. The sound of typing echoing through empty rooms. A chair inexplicably pulled back from a desk no one should be using. Then the CCTV begins to capture something impossible.

In this Fright Bites episode, we hear the unsettling account of a night worker who came face to face with the lingering presence of a former employee… a man said to have died alone at his desk years earlier, unnoticed for days inside the silent building.

A short-form paranormal encounter rooted in isolation, empty workplaces, late-night patrols, and the unnerving feeling that some places never truly empty out.

The investigation continues beneath the surface of Hack Green Nuclear Bunker.

After exploring the bunker’s Cold War history and after-hours atmosphere, the second part moves deeper into the experiences connected to the site: the strange sensations, unexplained encounters, and witness accounts that have become part of Hack Green’s modern identity.

This is not simply a story of concrete corridors and preserved military rooms. It is a story about what remains in a place shaped by secrecy, isolation, and the constant shadow of catastrophe. As Bryony and Emma continue their conversation with Steve, the bunker begins to feel less like a museum and more like a building still holding onto something.

Part 2 brings together witness testimony, paranormal discussion, and the lingering emotional weight of a location designed for the end of the world - asking whether places built around fear can absorb it, preserve it, and perhaps even echo it back.

A late-night drive on an almost empty stretch of the M6 should have been uneventful.

But just past Wigan, one driver noticed a woman standing alone on the hard shoulder. No broken-down car. No hazard lights. No attempt to wave for help. Just a still figure in a light-coloured coat, facing the road as traffic passed in the dark.

As the car drew level, she turned and looked directly at the driver - not frightened, not pleading, but waiting. A moment later, she was gone. No movement. No trace. Nothing visible in the mirror but the empty hard shoulder behind.

In this short Fright Bites encounter, a seemingly ordinary motorway sighting becomes something far harder to explain, especially when a colleague later mentions the stories attached to that same stretch of road: reports of a woman seen near the place where a fatal accident was said to have happened years before.

A quiet, chilling account of late-night roads, roadside ghosts, and the unnerving feeling that some places hold onto the final moments of those who never made it home.

Some people experience the unexplained once, and spend the rest of their lives trying to understand it.

For Catherine Jackson, it has never been just one moment. It has been a lifetime of knowing things before they happened, sensing presences in empty rooms, hearing voices with no visible source, and living alongside something that seems to follow from house to house.

From childhood in Western Australia, Catherine carried a quiet certainty about events before they unfolded. She knew when her grandmother was about to arrive. She sensed the death of her father before the news reached her. Years later, she would hear a radio report of a well-known entertainer’s death a full week before it was officially announced.

But Catherine’s story reaches far beyond premonition. Across decades, homes, relationships, and generations, strange activity has continued around her and her family. A hand stopping her from stepping into traffic. A shadow figure standing beside the bed. A child seen in the kitchen and then gone. Objects vanishing and reappearing in impossible places. Voices calling from empty rooms. And, perhaps most unsettling of all, a doppelgänger seen by her own son: an exact version of Catherine sitting on her bed, reading, while Catherine herself was miles away.

This is a deeply personal witness account of paranormal encounters, family memory, grief, intuition, and the strange possibility that some people don’t simply pass through the unexplained. They live with it.

A calm, atmospheric journey into one woman’s lifelong relationship with the unseen — and the question of whether a haunting can follow a person, rather than a place.
