When we think of haunted castles, we think of Transylvania, Ireland and pretty much anywhere but America... but tucked away in the small state of Rhode Island is Belcourt Castle, a huge mansion erected in 1891 and stuffed full of ancient artifacts with paranormal baggage. From haunted mirrors to electric chairs, every room of this castle has something new to investigate.

In 2017 global history was made when two, apparently pre-pubescent (judging by their voices), 25 year old investigators known as Kit and Rory deemed the Loch Ness Monster to be a real paranormal cryptid, giving it a double yes in their investigation. But there was a problem - how could Nessie be the only sea serpent in the British Isles when Kit and Rory grew up only around 200 miles away (as the crow flies) from Loch Ness? There are countless lakes, some larger and deeper than Loch Ness, dotted around Britain and Ireland. Well it turns out that Ireland has more than its fair share of aquatic legends. Perhaps the most famous of all is Muckie, a beast incredibly similar to Nessie and has been spotted on and off for decades in Killarney National Park. To find it will require tenacity, grit, and a not insubstantial amount of dynamite. Time for Rory and Kit to investigate.

On March 16, 1967, a strange object was seen hovering above an Air Force Base in Montana. 60 seconds later, an entire fleet of nuclear missiles were knocked offline. What happened next was rollercoaster of secret investigations, government shutdowns and classified reports. But this incident wouldn't stay secret for long... after all, this wasn't the first time an object had appeared at Malmstrom Air Force Base...

Imagine you could see anything on earth from the comfort of your sofa, what would you look at? Fair enough in our modern world of Ring doorbells and drones this is slightly less strange, but for most of human history this was a God-like ability up there with transforming water into wine and remaining calm in traffic jams. Crucially during the cold war the US government began to take this paranormal ability, known as Remote Viewing, very seriously indeed. With shady secrets, military bunkers, and piles of redacted dossiers, this is some of the most fascinating history in the paranormal world. Time for Kit and Rory to investigate.

In 1963, two retired air traffic controllers were exploring a Louisiana swamp called 'Honey Island'. Despite sounding like somewhere Winnie the Pooh would live, the swamp is actually home to an array of deadly and dangerous wildlife... NONE more dangerous than the Honey Island Swamp Monster - an ancient BEAST unknown to science that's lived in the swamp for hundreds of years (or it might just be an escaped monkey convict) Follow us on Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube Join our Secret Society Facebook Community Support us on Patreon.com/ThisParanormalLife to get access to weekly bonus episodes!

Around this time of year in 1855 residents of a sleepy town in Devon woke to a strange and disturbing phenomenon - completely unrecognisable footprints were covering the town. Only they weren't just on the ground, but in impossible locations: on top of houses, over giant walls, and most alarmingly of all these tracks covered over 100 miles. With no satisfying explanation from the animal kingdom they were left no choice but to accept the truth - Satan himself had visited during the night. It might sound farfetched but it wasn't the first time the dark lord holidayed in their town...

Art has always documented human history. From 10,000 year old cave paintings to, I don't know - Banksy, visual art has depicted the world around us and its major events.

You’ve seen it in countless cartoons and movies over the years - a cowboy or other thirsty character carrying two rods through he desert, the sticks seemingly magically have a mind of their own and point in the direction of water. They’re called dowsing rods and go back potentially thousands of years into history. But how do they work? And if they locate water, why do paranormal investigators around the world keep them in their toolkit at all times? It turns out these unassuming sticks harbour a deep paranormal secret.

The small town of Newmill is known for a lot of things, but after a freak paranormal incident in September 1977, it was only known for ONE thing - a strange floating orb seen by dozens of witnesses in the night sky. The orb was seemingly harmless, floating along the ground and through the treelines. However, days after it's appearance when the locals started falling ill, they realised that maybe this orb wasn't so harmless after all...

Imagine the Super Bowl was interrupted by a UFO hovering over the stadium and Tom freaking Brady was the key witness to the FBI - it would be Christmas Day in the paranormal research community! Yet that's exactly what happened, or at least the equivalent, in Florence in Italy in 1954 when a stadium filled with 10,000 spectators saw a UFO pass overhead and drop what witnesses would describe as 'angel hair' on the pitch and stands. Was it really close contact with extraterrestrials or was it some kind of mass hysteria or natural event? It's time for Rory and Kit to find out!

When we think of Christmas, usually a few things come to mind - chestnuts roasting on an open fire, giving gifts to loved ones, and of course, Santa Claus. However, what if I told you there was a Christmas legend that's been forgotten over time? The legend of Hans Trapp, the devil-worshipping cannibal that appeared every year to devour naughty children... Time for Rory and Kit, two VERY naughty children to investigate.

Macbeth is one of the most famous plays of all time, but did you know that it’s cursed? Legend has it that Shakespeare’s witch dialogue was so realistic he actually stumbled across real spells that cursed the play to this very day, and that just by uttering the word ‘Macbeth’ in a theatre is enough to doom the production. It may sound far-fetched but the long list of victims of the curse says otherwise… So it’s time for Kit and Rory to investigate and find out - is the curse of Macbeth really paranormal, or just superstition?
