Uncanny

It’s the mid-19th century, and HMS Asp is on a routine mission charting the British coastline for the Royal Navy. But strange sounds and a ghostly apparition unsettle the crew, far away from the safety of shore. As fear spreads among the men whispers of a haunting take hold. 

Is this the strain of isolation playing tricks on the mind? Do the crew have cabin fever - or could someone, or something, be moving below decks?

Danny Robins investigates, with Evelyn Hollow and Dr Ciaràn O'Keeffe.

Cold Cases: Case 6: The Haunting of HMS Asp

Spring 1973, the Isle of Wight, and two young children have an truly weird encounter. 

In marshland near Sandown Airport they meet a 7-foot creature with a yellow hat, three-fingered hands, and triangles for eyes. 

He calls himself ‘All Colours Sam’. Was Sam an otherworldly visitor, or merely the product of a child’s imagination? And is there any connection to an epidemic of UFO sightings over the Isle of Wight at the same time? 

The truth is out there - Danny, Ciaran and Evelyn investigate.

Cold Cases: Case 4: The Cock Lane Poltergeist

Danny Robins has a close encounter with the original alien abduction case. 

On a quiet night in 1961, Barney and Betty Hill are driving home through New Hampshire when they see something in the sky that will change their lives forever. What they recount is a series of experiences so strange that even sceptics struggle to explain them - from missing time to vivid, seemingly impossible memories of an encounter with beings who may not be human. 

Dr Ciaran O’Keefe and Evelyn Hollow are on hand as ever to help make sense of what might really have happened. It’s the OG alien abduction story - but what do the team make of it, 60 years later?

Cold Cases: Case 3: The White Mountain UFO

Danny Robins' historical investigation into a poltergeist in 1960s Pontefract continues. 

Mr Nobody has been getting the blame for everything from floating candlesticks, to teeth marks left in sandwiches, but things are about to take a darker turn. As events escalate, one member of the family finds themselves in genuine physical danger - but is it from something paranormal, or something much closer to home? 

Resident experts Dr Ciaran O’Keefe and Evelyn Hollow are on hand to weigh the evidence, test theories, and guide listeners through the chilling conclusion to Britain’s most infamous poltergeist tale.

Cold Cases: Case 2: Return to East Drive

Danny Robins investigates a potential poltergeist haunting in the very first episode of Uncanny Cold Cases, a new series investigating some of the spookiest paranormal events ever documented. The series kicks off with a two-part story that’s been called Britain's most violent ever poltergeist case - The Black Monk of Pontefract. 

When the Pritchard family move into 30 East Drive in Pontefract, doors slam, objects fly, and the family quickly realise they're not alone in the house. They call the mischievous entity Mr Nobody. Is something supernatural stalking the Pritchards? Or can the team find a more straightforward explanation?
