    54. The Beast of Gévaudan
    2026/05/04
    During the summer of 1764, the mountains and forests of southern France run red with blood. A terrifying, oversized beast is slaughtering women and children, yet completely bypassing their flocks of sheep. Panic sweeps the nation, drawing the attention of none other than the king himself. But even royal hunters are powerless against the monster, and over a hundred people die before it is finally stopped. So was this horrific slaughter the work of a supernatural demon, an exotic animal, or a sadistic human?

    53. The Woman in Room 2805
    2026/04/06
    One June evening in Oslo, a gunshot suddenly rings out from a room in a luxury hotel. Armed police struggle to breach the door, but when they do, they find it double-locked from the inside. On the bed lies a young woman, dead from a single bullet to the head. The death has the initial appearance of a tragic suicide, until investigators look closer. The mysterious woman has no ID, the labels have been cut from all her clothes, and the serial number on her gun has been dissolved by acid. So who was she and, more importantly, who pulled the trigger?

    52. The Scottish Nostradamus
    2026/01/19

    In the mist-shrouded Highlands of 17th-century Scotland, a farm labourer peers through a hole in a small, white stone. Through this pebble, he claims to see the future. He sees ships sailing across dry land. He sees a day when the people of the Highlands will be outnumbered by sheep. He even foresees a black rain that will bring unimaginable wealth to the city of Aberdeen, three hundred years in the future. Was Coinneach Odhar, the Brahan Seer, truly the "Scottish Nostradamus," or was his legend a masterpiece of historical ventriloquism? Plus, one year has passed since Barry made his own predictions for 2025, back in episode 13. We listen back to find out how accurate was our own "Scottish Nostradmaus"?

    50. The Ghost of Wem Town Hall
    2025/12/08

    It is the night of 19th November , 1995. The sky over the small market town of Wem in Shropshire is glowing a violent orange. The historic Town Hall is burning to the ground. But amidst the roaring flames and falling timbers, a local photographer captures something that shouldn't exist. Developing his film, he finds a clear, black-and-white image of a young girl, standing calmly in the heart of the inferno, staring directly at him. But was this a visitor from the grave, or a trick that fooled the experts for fifteen years?

    See The Wem Ghost Photo and 'The Method' here.

    49. Psychic Surgery
    2025/11/24
    In the dimly lit clinics of the Philippines, psychic surgeons perform the impossible: with only their bare hands, they appear to plunge deep into a patient’s body, pulling out bloody, cancerous tumours before astonished onlookers. The skin is left unbroken, the wound sealed as if by a miracle. But is this a genuine medical marvel, a divine gift of healing, or could it instead be a very clever trick?
