Send us a text Video Version HERE In 1945, an elderly farm worker was found savagely killed on the slopes of Meon Hill. His body was pinned to the ground with his own pitchfork. Rumours spread that this was no ordinary murder, but a ritual killing rooted in old English witchcraft. In this episode, I investigate the chilling case now known as the Pitchfork Witch Murder: the killing of Charles Walton in the Warwickshire village of Lower Quinton. I’ll explore the original police files, local folklore about the "Black Dog" of Meon Hill, and the theories that have surrounded this case for decades – from witchcraft, ancient stone circles to occult sacrifice. We’ll also look at the role of the famous detective “Fabian of the Yard”, and ask why this brutal crime remains officially unsolved.

Send us a text Video Version HERE What happens when you are trapped in a tiny apartment with a presence that wants you out? In this witness-collaborated case file, we examine an aggressive haunting that took place entirely within the claustrophobic confines of a small flat. Unlike subtle residual activity, this poltergeist-like phenomenon turned hostile, leaving the witness cornered with seemingly no escape. We analyse the escalation of activity and the terrifying reality of a haunting in which the walls feel as if they are closing in. This is a story of entrapment and a fight for territory against an unseen force. For more on Peter Laws check out: www.patreon.com/peterlaws or www.peterlaws.co.uk

Send us a text Video Version HERE Most hauntings are tied to a location. If you leave the house, the activity stops. But for one man in the UK, the phenomenon wasn't attached to a building, it clung to HIM. In this true paranormal documentary, we investigate a rare case of lifelong paranormal attachment that followed a witness for decades, no matter where he moved. Based on corroborated testimony and told here for the first time, this report documents the psychological toll of a haunting that offered "nowhere safe" to hide. We analyze the timeline of events and the witness's struggle to understand why this presence refused to let him go. For more on Peter Laws check out: www.patreon.com/peterlaws or www.peterlaws.co.uk

Send us a text Video Version HERE A childhood haunting should stay in the past. But when his new girlfriend moves in, the activity doesn't just return, it way more intense. Did the house wake up, or did she bring something with her? In this episode of Into the Fog, I investigate a chilling real-life case where a dormant haunting is revived by a new presence. This isn't just a ghost story; it's a terrifying example of spiritual attachment.  If you follow this channel for true scary stories and in-depth paranormal investigation, this case will make you question who, or what, you invite into your home.

Send us a text Video Version HERE For 38 years, Shane MacLeod had never believed in anything paranormal. Then one summer evening in 2008, everything changed. A dark, crouching, inhuman entity slipped through the dog flap in his bedroom door. What followed was six months of terrifying activity. Until now, Shane has never told this story publicly. And for this video, I have also taken a statement from Shane's son...who was present during one particularly inexplicable incident.  Was it a haunting? A demonic presence? Or some inhuman entity we have no language for? You decide.

Send us a text Video Version HERE In the late 1980s, an American family moved into what they hoped would be a peaceful home. Instead, their house became the centre of one of the most disturbing and complex hauntings you’ve likely never heard of. This case reached national news, drew in priests and psychics, and even attracted a television crew. And yet, despite everything, the story slowly vanished from public memory. Much of what we know today comes from Doretta Johnson’s remarkable book, The People in the Attic, which documents her family’s experiences in vivid and painful detail. If you can find a copy, it’s an extraordinary and harrowing read, and it includes far more information than I have shared here. This video exists in part to make sure her scary, yet inspiring story - and the suffering her family endured - is not forgotten.

Send us a text Video Version HERE Fluorescent lights. After-hours silence. And a parnormal ordeal that would never be forgotten.    A viewer named Jordan worked six years in a small shop and met a presence that knocked on doors, hurled bottles, smiled without eyes… and followed people home. Tonight we dive into his story, along with the other shop workers who started to share their own frightening encounters in the store.  Brace yourself...because you're about to meet The Thing on Aisle Four.  To protect Jordan’s privacy, we deliberately haven’t named the town or supermarket where these events happened. The real place inspired the artwork, but we’ve kept it anonymous out of respect for Jordan and everyone who still works or shops there. Some names have been changed, as stated in the video.  For more on Peter Laws check out: www.patreon.com/peterlaws or www.peterlaws.co.uk

Send us a text Video Version HERE For decades, the Amityville Horror has been called one of the most notorious hoaxes in paranormal history. Today, many roll their eyes at the story of George and Kathy Lutz fleeing 112 Ocean Avenue after just 28 days...especially when Ed & Lorraine Warren turn up. With endless movies, sequels, and parodies, the case has become a pop-culture joke. But what if we’ve been too quick to dismiss it? In this feature-length episode of Into the Fog, I strip away the Hollywood dramatics and the exaggerations from Jay Anson’s book. Instead, he focuses solely on the eyewitness testimony from the Lutz family and those directly involved: George, Kathy, their children, Father Ray, and close friends who experienced the house firsthand. You may well hear details of the case you've never heard before. When you listen to what these people actually said (not the screenwriters or the tabloids) the picture looks different. The story of Amityville becomes less about a “hoax” and more about a genuinely unsettling haunting that spiralled out of control once the media circus began. Join me as we grapple with the raw testimony at the heart of America’s most infamous haunted house and explore Amityville at 50: What if it was REAL after all? And do watch until the end, for some important thoughts on how we should deal with paranormal cases in general. #AmityvilleHorror #IntoTheFog #Paranormal #HauntedHouse #TrueCrime #GeorgeLutz #KathyLutz #DeFeoMurders HUGE THANKS to all the volunteers who provided the brilliant voicework for this episode: James Andrews as Michael Rice Rebekah Humphrey-Bullen as Danae Brook  Paul Bullen as Reverend Christopher Neil-Smith  Joshua Cerullo as Chris Gugas (Joshua can be contacted at [email protected])  Diandre Ruppert as Kathy Lutz Tony Saade Jr. as George Lutz and Ronnie DeFeo For more on Peter Laws check out: www.patreon.com/peterlaws or www.peterlaws.co.uk

Back the campaign here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/brianniemeier/nethereal-10th-anniversary-special-edition A forgotten ghost story, a twisted true crime...and a horrifying shadow figure we're calling 'The Bent Neck Man' as a nod to The Haunting of Hill House. In this chilling episode of Into the Fog, we uncover the terrifying legend of Gladwish Wood — a stretch of forest in rural England once feared by locals, including author Rudyard Kipling who claimed to have a frightening demonic encounter there. What starts as a classic haunting becomes something darker, as a paranormal investigator and his team encounter a horrifying figure in the woods… a figure possibly tied to a real 19th-century criminal trial. Is it the spirit of a man wrongly condemned? Or something even more ancient, still feeding on grief, rage, and despair? Join Peter Laws as he investigates this eerie true story where the paranormal collides with true crime, folklore, and historical tragedy. And keep watching until the end.
