  • Halloween 2025 - Monster Month: The Mothman and the Other Cryptids of West Virginia
    Halloween is here... Over the past few weeks, we’ve scoured the misty shores of Loch Ness, tracked elusive footprints through Pacific Northwest forests, and followed blood-curdling tales from the deserts of the Americas. From Nessie to Bigfoot to the Chupacabra, we’ve crossed continents chasing the creatures that stalk our imaginations. But tonight… tonight, we’ve saved the strangest for last. This story isn’t just a legend—it’s a warning. One whispered through radio static, etched into weathered newspaper clippings, and passed down by those who swore they saw something they couldn’t explain. It’s a tale of glowing red eyes in the dark… of prophetic nightmares… of a town haunted not by a ghost, but by something else—something winged, silent, and watching. You’re going to need your torch and your courage, as we’re heading deep into the fog-shrouded valleys of West Virginia, in search of the Mothman… and a whole host of other cryptids lurking there.

  • Bonus Episode 24 - York Guildhall (Lost Audio Special)
    Originally released for Patreons in August 2024 I hope you enjoy this very special episode. In the 24th Patreon bonus podcast you join me at a magnificent building we visited back in episode 21 of the podcast, but we're doing something a little bit special. In April I found a hard drive containing audio from four investigations that I conducted in 2011 and 2012. Dozens of hours of audio that I lost around a decade ago, and I thought was lost forever. These were four absolutely incredible locations, and I have covered all four investigations - minus the audio from that night - on the podcast previously. So in the Patreon specials across June, July, August, and September I will revisit those episodes and add in the audio, which was seemingly lost forever. This time it’s time to head back to York Guildhall. And the episode now includes almost 2 hours and 45 minutes of audio from that unforgettable night, so you can hear what happened, exactly as it happened. But what would happen when my team and I stepped foot inside this location on a chilly October evening in search of the spirits to be found here, including phantom monks, voices calling out in empty rooms, and a large shadowy man, who’s heavy footsteps are a sure sign of his presence. Tonight, let us find out together as we ask the question, just how haunted is York Guildhall? To get episodes such as this sooner, you can become a Patreon for £3 a month, and get yourself early access to episodes, and more exclusive episodes where Rob will conduct ghost hunts and you'll hear the audio from the night.  To find out more, or take advantage of a seven day free trial, head on over to https://patreon.com/HowHauntedPod   Perhaps you'd rather buy me a coffee to make a one off donation to support the pod, you can do that at https://www.buymeacoffee.com/HowHauntedPod   Check out the official merch store at how-haunted.dashery.com where you can buy t-shirts, hoodies, mugs, hats, and much more.

  • Ep 120 - The Yeti, Bigfoot and Other Hairy Monsters
    In episode 120 we go in search of towering, hairy beasts that are said to stalk the wilderness. From the snow-covered slopes of the Himalayas to the dense forests of North America, reports of upright, ape-like creatures have refused to die, no matter how much science tries to bury them. In this episode, we’re taking on the heavyweights of cryptid folklore — creatures with names so iconic they barely need introduction. As Monster Month continues, we venture into regions where oxygen runs thin, tracks disappear into the snow, and something might be watching from the tree line. We’ll examine centuries of folklore, dig through expedition reports, and pick apart the so-called evidence that keeps the hunt alive. So join me this week as we go in search of the Yeti and Bigfoot.

  • Ep 119 - Monster Month: The Loch Ness Monster and Other Soggy Beasts
    In episode 119 we continue Monster Month in style by going in search of one of the true behemoths in the world of cryptozoology. This time we’re heading to the Scottish Highlands to look at one of the world’s most famous mysteries. For decades, people have claimed to see something strange lurking in Loch Ness. From blurry photographs to sonar scans and eyewitness reports, the idea of a monster living in the loch has captured imaginations—and stirred up plenty of debate. So what’s really going on? Is there something in the water, or is it all just a myth kept alive by hoaxes, the Scottish tourism industry, and hopeful thinking?

Joined by my fellow monster hunters John and David, we explore three of the sighting hotspots as we attempt to locate the Durham Puma.
