True Hauntings

In this episode of True Hauntings Podcast, we investigate the strange and unsettling case of The Cideville Poltergeist, one of France’s most unusual 19th-century paranormal mysteries.

Staff witness tapes flying from impossible machines, doors opening by themselves, and lights flickering with no one nearby. Schoolchildren repeatedly see a little gir...

You don’t usually expect a place built for prayer to carry a reputation that makes even locals lower their voices when they talk about it… but that’s exactly what’s happened at the Abbey of Santa Maria di Lucedio. Out in the quiet rice fields of northern Italy, this monastery has managed to collect centuries’ worth of rumours that feel just a little too persistent to brush off as imagination. 

There are some houses that become stories… and then there are houses that refuse to stay just a story.

The Munroe House sits firmly in that second category.

On paper, it’s just another historic American home — wood, nails, a bit of age and weathering. But the moment you start pulling at the threads, you realise this place has gathered something heavier over time. .

What makes the Munroe House interesting — and...

What happens when a young girl begins to suffer attacks… from something no one can see?

Was this a case of possession?

A genuine poltergeist?

Or something fa...

What if the most beautiful cemetery in the world… isn’t empty?

In this episode of True Hauntings Podcast, we uncover the chilling stories hidden behind its...

It starts, as these things often do, with something small… something easy to dismiss.

A knock.

Not loud. Not dramatic. Just… there.

A quiet, deliberate tap that doesn’t belong to anyone in the room.

And here’s the uncomfortable part — in the Crawley house, that knock didn’t stop.

It turned into footsteps… objects shifting… doors opening when no one was near them. The kind of thing...

In the first part of this two part story about the Chateau De Amerois we learnt about the known history of this place and the deeply traumatic space it is surrounded by. A forest filled with the trauma of war and patriarchy.

Behind locked gates in the Ardennes forest sits a château most people have never heard of — and that’s exactly how some would prefer it.

Château d’Amérois isn’t splashed across tourist brochures or wedding websites. I

t doesn’t trade on Instagram sunsets or glossy heritage grants. I

t sits quietly in Belgium, wrapped in trees and whispers, with a history that feels… curated.

And whenever histo...

Malahide Castle looks polite enough from the outside. Manicured grounds.

Postcard Ireland.

The kind of place tour buses roll into without anyone gripping their seat too tightly.

But that’s the trick with places like this — the real story doesn’t live in the stone walls or the gift shop. It lives in what happened when nobody was watching… and in the long memory of a family who occupied the same ground for ne...

The Mansfield Reformatory in Ohio wasn’t meant to be just another prison. It was built like a castle, a grand gothic structure that looked more like a church than a jail.

But, what started as a shining vision of redemption turned into something very different. Overcrowding, brutality, de...
