Each of these four ghost stories comes from a real home, with firsthand accounts of experiences that witnesses still can’t fully explain.

To my knowledge, these are not creepypasta or fictional horror stor...
Episode 123: Bodmin Jail Part 2 03.02.2026 32:43
For nearly 150 years, Bodmin Jail was the kind of place you entered through those imposing gates, and prayed you’d one day leave again. Because not everyone did. And perhaps this is the reason why the now-luxury hotel and visitor attraction is said to be haunted by former inmates, staff, and possibly… something far darker.

To this day, people who stay in the now-converted luxury hotel, or visit the attraction, will claim to experience things they can’t explain. Could it be that the prisoners who never got to leave, are making their presence known? SOURCES 📚 The History Of Bodmin Jail, by Bil...
