Haunted UK Podcast

“When I was in my teens, one of my friends lived in an old farmhouse on a road named after the original owner, Seth Morehouse. One evening, we were in her room and the radiator started gurgling. My friend said, “Seth is here.” The words were barely out of her mouth when her closet door opened. She told Seth that it was ok, that he could come out, and the door swung shut. Her closet was located in the eaves of the old house; it was fairly large and ran in a narrow space parallel to her bedroom wall. To my utter confusion, amazement, and terror - I woke up the next morning lying in that closet…”

Short Haunts – After Hours

Welcome dear listeners, to our series of ‘Short Haunts’ – a shot of scary ... just for you. So, grab a hot chocolate, maybe a tea, maybe something stronger … because this is Haunted UK Podcast’s 'Short Haunts –After Hours.’ 

'When I told the security guard what had happened, he didn’t laugh or dismiss it. He admitted that other cleaners had mentioned objects being slightly out of place on that same floor. Bins tipped over for no clear reason, chairs subtly repositioned in empty meeting rooms, taps found running when no one had been upstairs. Nothing extreme, nothing that would make headlines, but enough to leave you uneasy and constantly looking over your shoulder.'

Welcome to part three of my return to Dudley Castle. In this final episode, Amy takes me around the castle grounds themselves, guiding me through some of the locations most closely linked to reported paranormal activity. From shadowy corners to open spaces with long memories, this is where the stories we’ve been discussing throughout the series truly come to life.

A huge thank you to Amy for all of her time, knowledge, and generosity throughout this series. I’d also like to thank all the staff and management at Dudley Castle and Zoological Gardens for accommodating me last September and for making me feel so welcome during my visit.

Welcome back.

This is part two of my interview with Amy, recorded on location last September. In part one, we explored the long and often brutal history of Dudley Castle and the people who once walked its halls and beautiful grounds.

In this episode, we hear about more experiences, from strange encounters and ongoing activity to the moments that make even seasoned investigators stop and take notice.

We dig deeper into the ghosts and legends most closely associated with the castle, and the phenomena that continues to be reported by staff and visitors alike.If part one set the scene, part two is where the hauntings truly begin.

Recorded on location in September 2025, I was lucky enough to interview Amy, the paranormal host and historian at Dudley Castle.

This interview explores the castle’s long and often brutal history, uncovering the surprising connections between Dudley Castle and some of the most colourful, and at times bloody, periods in British history. We also delve deep into the ghostly encounters and paranormal events which have solidified Dudley Castle as being one of the most haunted locations in Great Britain.

Now, this interview ended up being so rich it’s been split into three parts.

In part one, we focus on the history and the people who once lived within these walls and walked these beautiful grounds, and we whet your appetite with a few ghostly tales along the way.

In part two, we dive much deeper into the ghosts, legends, and strange happenings associated with the castle.

And in part three, Amy takes me out on location around the castle and its grounds, visiting some of the remarkable places where spirits and ghosts are said to roam.

So, join me now for part one of my return to Dudley Castle.
