Ep 82: “The Puppets Are Coming For Me…”

This episode is one of those remarkable shares that seem to lead us through a new threshold of understanding.

We hear from a guest who, as a child living in rural Greater Manchester, England, encountered small black creatures emanating from a chimney breast in her bedroom. The main image drawn by our guest is the long nosed being and the hairy ‘leader’ which featured in her experience.

🌟 In the Patreon-Exclusive full length episode, you hear of a later encounter with The Hat Man and a small figure which appeared at the window around the time I responded to her initial email.

⚡️ This episode is unsettling in places so do take care if you’re listening at bedtime!

Huge thanks to our amazing guest for sharing her experience with us.

Ep 55: Terrified by Goblins in my London Flat!

In 2018, after months of unusual phenomena in her London flat, a woman finally came face to face with the troublesome culprits. During a night time trip to the bathroom she was horrified to see two goblins, stacked one atop the other, peering at her from the threshold of the door. 

Since that time, she has struggled to come to terms with the reality of what happened.  In our western society, people are wholly unaccepting that these experiences take place, least of all that they could ever happen in urban areas. 

We discuss the events that finally led to that night, her relationship with the flat, which had always unnerved visitors and how the decision to share her story was not taken lightly. 

Is it purely location that invokes these visitations? What other factors are involved? We discuss aspects of liminality including thresholds, stages of life and geographical landmarks. 

In the bonus episode on Patreon, I narrate several other modern encounters which bear a striking resemblance to our guest’s experience. Join us there for just £3 a month and get access to the Discord group and regular events.

Main image: Created by the guest as a close likeness of the one of the goblins she saw in her flat.
