This shocking case dates from September 2023. Nicholas Prosper aged 18 had an ambition to become known as a spree killer.
This is a short podcast about a case that was reported this week. Jennifer Abbott was murdered on around 10 June. Police originally thought she had been targeted by drug addicts. But the truth seemed a little more unusual. Recorded in a couple of hours in lo-fi and without editing.
A story that rambles on about the murder of Worthing based amateur archaeologist John Pull on 10 November 1960. He was shot in a bank being raided by teenagers. There is an interesting contrast between John Pull who contributed so much during his life, compared to the nihilistic life style of those responsible for his death. His wannabe gangster killer actually claimed to be a reincarnation of the long dead American g...
A forgotten murder that took place in Middlesborough during December 1972. A vicious murder for the sake of a few pounds so the killer could place some bets at the Bookies. RIP Nellie Tighe.
Hello anyone reading or listening to this. Sorry it has been so long since my last pod. This case dates back to 1961 but it is an interesting case, virtually forgotten today. It is set in the East End of London when three policeman were shot by an angry man who had argued with his wife.
There is no editing and all is in lo-fi.
The Helen Duncan seances at Portsmouth during WW2, allegedly called the spirit of a sailor who died aboard the HMS Barham which had been lost with almost 900 onboard. The spirit sailor told Duncan of the loss. It was top secret and nobody was supposed to have knowledge of it, so was this proof that spirits called at the séance were genuine?
Well of course not, but other documentaries on the subject were coy about te...
Pathological jealousy, Sandbanks, Dorset murder.
This case dates from 1972, it is an unknown case, I can find no information about it online.
The information comes from files in the National Archives. The podcast is told in one take and there is no editing. I think there is some frog and sparrow noise in the background. I will attempt a change of subject matter for the next pod.
I am sure nobody listening would have ever heard about this case. The actual case files will not be released until 2057, 100 years plus after the case so there is something to be kept secret.
It is a short podcast, with a lot of padding because there is no information. Recorded in lo-fi in one take with no editing. I will post some photos on the F/B site, not however the corpses which were quite horrifying.

An unpleasnt story, the court case said a sordid murder, so maybe not for all. Ilchester, Somerset 1972. I will post some photographs on the F/B site.
A dreadful story about how three young men in their 20s, fashionable Mods found themselves crossing a line and ruining their lives, killing others with a series of bad decisions in the Swinging London of 1968.
This is a disjointed ramble about some stories from the Isle of Wight, mainly from the 1960s. A murder at the Blacksmith's Arms, A murder at Carisbrooke, some possible paranormal stories, some local history and some aircraft crashes on the chalk Downs.
I usually read up on the stories making a few notes beforehand and then write them and post them in a day so I am afraid they are not that well produced or professi...
This is a current case after the bodies of Andrew and Dawn Searle were found in their home in Southern France on Thursday 6 February 2025. This is what is known after six days of investigation. I discuss the possible theories that have been reported in the media.
A story based during World War 2, a double murder committed by a younger male who did nothing to help the war effort who seemed totally selfish and was a danger to women.
I can only find one other podcast that has covered this podcast, which was Murder Mile, which is a recommended listen.
This podcast was recorded in one take and has not been edited, I hesitate and mispronounce as usual. On listening to playback, ther...
A rather strange case, a double murder that shocked the UK in 1949 but is almost forgotten about today. 75 years on, we do not know the motive. Told in one take without editing.
This is the third and final podcast on the Southport Stabbings from 29 July last year. The most shocking crime committed in the UK that I can ever recall. This is a consideration of unanswered questions and failures of the Authorities in this matter.
This short podcast is part one, about the cover up by the authorities over the Southport Stabbings and murders.
I like many others feel upset and let down by the authorities about the atrocities they in part allowed to happen in Southport last year. These authorities are all trying hard to deflect and cover up.
In this podcast I give a brief overview of events in Rwanda over the past 30 years and looking int...
Two interesting cases that both went to the law courts in some ways trying to prove that ghosts exist. The first case was in Hackney, East London in 1967, the second was in Derbyshire in the 1990s.
This podcast is unedited and recording in one take, and I am not the best at pronouncing or enunciating words, so I apologise for that but do not need reminding of it.
A little Social and Economic history and a murder in Maidenhead during 1948.
This podcast is told in one take without editing.
A case probably long forgotton and not much publicised at the time. The information has been sourced from police records and primary sources.
An unpleasant double murder from thirty years ago at Plymouth, Devon. The story is told in one take and without any editing.
It was at Raynham Hall that what is known as the most famous photograph of a ghost was taken. The background to the photograph being taken was the chaotic family history of the Townshend family of Raynham Hall, Norfolk. This podcast is a ramble, told in one take without editing.
