Known as one of England's most famous poltergeist cases, the Wesley family experienced strange knocks, dismal groans, and ghostly footsteps that terrorised them for weeks. Matt delves into the supernatural events, the religious context as we dive deeper into the mysteries of this haunting and its historical and paranormal significance.
