The north south divide is as open to debate as any other aspect of my attempt to answer the question. Truthfully, I don't think it's possible to answer the question with any degree of certainty

Coming on Friday.....

Join me and the team on a Northumbrian ghost hunt in search of the White Lady 👻

I'll tell you all about this location, the history, and the ghost stories, and you'll hear everything that happens across a MASSIVE SIX-HOUR-LONG episode.

A quick show of hands 🙋

Does anyone fancy a new ghost hunt episode on Friday....?

In a How Haunted? first, I speak to a listener who didn't go in search of ghosts. They found her. When she moved into a Georgian farmhouse she soon realised not all of the former occupants had left

Tracey's story is incredible and I can't wait for you to hear it

Went to see Ross Noble at Newcastle City Hall last night. Brilliant as expected. The guy is a mad genius. Best stand-up comedian on earth 👏

Patreon supporters have really loved the new episode in which I spend two nights with two haunted dolls 👻

👻NEW EPISODE👻

I spent two nights with two haunted dolls, Angela & Lexi, and the two episodes covering those two nights are available on Patreon now.

It was 48 hours of surprises, scares, and awful realisations.

Check them out with a seven day trial at www.patreon.com/howhauntedpod

Helen is choosing which doll she wants so now time to announce the third and final winner, drawn from Patreon which is Sharon.

Sharon isn't keen on adopting a creepy doll, so I will contact the next name drawn.

Thanks to everyone who bought some merch or supports on Patreon 😀

Kristi chose the book, so a copy of Ghosts of the North East is on its way.

The second name out the hat from the merch buyers was Karen, but she isn't too keen on owning a haunted doll, so I've redrew and Helen won. I'll see if she wants a doll. Next - name from the Patreon pot.

Check out Steph's blog post about the episode

Fella from Octopus Energy turned up to fit a smart electric meter.

When I answered the door he said "I'm Octopus Man, here to do your meter". I've been watching him as carefully as I can without seeming weird and have not seen any sign of octopus-based superpowers yet.

Thank you so much 😀

FRIDAY

I still can't believe the podcast reached 1,000,000 downloads on Friday.

When I started How Haunted? I never expected anyone to even find the podcast, let alone listen to it. It blows my mind and hasn't sank in yet.

If you've listened to just one episode, thank you 👻❤️
