Eight miles south of Edinburgh, hidden within a wooded glen beside the River North Esk, stands one of the most mysterious chapels in the world.

Rosslyn Chapel.

Built in the 1400s by the powerful Sinclair family, this extraordinary structure has fascinated historians, pilgrims, and conspiracy theorists for centuries. Beneath its ornate carvings and towering pillars lie crypts that were built before the chapel itself — crypts that have been sealed for generations.

Inside the chapel, thousands of intricate carvings depict angels, sacred geometry, Green Men, and strange symbols that some believe hide a musical code carved in stone.

But Rosslyn’s mysteries go deeper still.

Legends claim the chapel may be connected to the Knights Templar, the Holy Grail, and even Mary Magdalene. Visitors and workers have reported ghostly monks in the crypts, armoured figures standing watch, unexplained music, and laughter echoing in the darkness below.

So what really lies beneath Rosslyn Chapel?

Tonight we explore the history, symbolism, myths, and paranormal encounters surrounding one of Scotland’s most enigmatic sacred sites, and ask whether its greatest mystery lies in the sealed crypts… or in the stories we continue to tell about them.

For centuries, The Cage in St Osyth has been whispered about as one of England’s most haunted buildings. But behind its chilling reputation lies a tangled web of half-truths, disputed history, and terrifying modern encounters.

In this episode, we dig into the origins of The Cage, exploring its mysterious transformation from a simple village lock-up to a hotspot of paranormal legends. We examine the story of Ursula Kemp, the cunning woman accused of witchcraft, and unravel whether she was ever truly connected to the building at all.

Then we turn to the haunting that made national headlines: Vanessa Mitchell’s experiences after moving in during the 2000s. From blood appearing out of nowhere, to violent poltergeist activity, shadow figures, and the infamous mirror incident, we walk through her documented encounters and the friends and investigators who witnessed phenomena alongside her.

Along the way, we explore the contradictions, the missing historical records, the disputed timelines, the lack of physical evidence, versus the overwhelming volume of paranormal accounts collected over decades.

Was The Cage ever a true witch’s prison? Is its haunting a remnant of a darker past, or something born from fear, folklore, and human experience? Join us as we peel back the layers of history, legend, and the unknown in one of Britain’s most perplexing haunted homes.

In this episode, we dive deep beneath West Wycombe to unravel the decadent, dangerous, and possibly haunted legacy of the infamous Hellfire Club. Joined by special guest Annabel Brightingling, we explore everything from wild rumours to grounded history, and all the strange places where the two overlap.

We start with the club’s origins under Francis Dashwood, the mischievous aristocrat whose private brotherhood blended politics, philosophy, drinking, satire… and maybe something darker. From masked revelry to secret rites held in the winding chalk passages of the West Wycombe Caves, we trace the line between indulgence and infamy.

Then we turn to one of the club’s most enduring mysteries: the strange story of Paul Whitehead, the club’s steward whose heart was literally kept in an urn at the caves, until it was stolen. With Annabel, we unpack the bizarre theft, why anyone would want a poet’s preserved heart, and how its disappearance sparked tales of a restless spirit still roaming the tunnels today.
