In this episode, The Haunted Chair delves into the origin and nature of liminal spaces, why they are often eerie and disconcerting, and what could be the underlying psychological reason for our reactions. Then, we delve into the phenomenon of the report of stairs appearing out of thin air in the middle of lonely places, seemingly with no destination or purpose. Finally, we explore some of the most chilling cases of reported disappearances and time slips that have ever been recorded. Have a seat...in the Haunted Chair.
