Simon has been a writer with Bedtime Stories since 2019 and has penned the majority of the episodes you have listened to thus far. As a serving police officer, he has witnessed a number of inexplicable occurrences whilst on duty. Finally, we finish out the year with a rather moving personal story from Rich.

In this episode, we introduce you to Rich, the narrator of the podcast, so that he can share some of his own personal experiences with the paranormal.

Story One – The Lost Girls of Panama
On the morning of 1st April 2014, two young women decided to hike up to a popular tourist spot on the famous Pianista trail. They were never seen alive again. Were their deaths the result of a tragic accident? Or is there more to this mystery than meets the eye? What happened to the lost girls of Panama?
Story Two – The Strange Death of Jonathan Lovette
When seeking to refute reported UFO encounters, sceptics will often highlight a lack of physical evidence as a means of undermining the witness testimony. But how do you debunk such a tale when it resulted in the death and mutilation of one of the people involved? In this story, we ask what led to the strange death of Jonathan Lovette.

Story One – Taken in the Night
Stories of mysterious abductions have been with us for decades, to the point that they’ve become a huge part of Western culture. Unfortunately, this has erased much of the nuance surrounding these events, including strange occurrences felt before, during, and even after the “abduction” itself. Perhaps it’s finally time for people to listen to what really happened to those who found themselves taken in the night.
Story Two – The Santa Isabel Entity
In September of 1972, a series of bizarre encounters occurred at an industrial complex in the Argentinian city of Cordoba. Over the course of one week, witnesses to the phenomenon described crossing paths with a mysterious intruder – one whose origins remain unknown to this day. Whether it was man, beast, or something else entirely, we still have little explanation for the Santa Isabel Entity.

Story One – Who Killed Cindy James?
On a warm Vancouver day in June 1989, the bound and bruised body of a woman was found in the yard of an abandoned house. Police quickly determined that she had committed suicide, but her six-year history of receiving threatening phone calls and being the victim of abusive stalking leaves us asking: who killed Cindy James?
Story Two – The Body in Boiler Stack Nine
As it becomes more difficult for us to make our way through life without leaving behind a trail of physical and digital footprints, it has in turn become far easier for law enforcement agencies to trace the victims of fatal crimes. And yet, instances persist where human remains are discovered, which are frustratingly never identified. In this story, we examine just such an instance; that of the body found in boiler stack nine.

Story One – The Ghost of UB-65
It has long been theorised that ghostly manifestations are the echoes of human souls, whose lives were cut unexpectedly short, forever anchoring them to a fixed location. But what happens when that location is a mobile instrument of war, capable of travelling halfway around the world?
Story Two – The Nameless Horror of Berkley Square
The affluent London borough of Mayfair has long been associated with grand hotels and gourmet restaurants. But hidden amongst the art galleries and international
embassies sits an innocuous Georgian property that was once known as one of London’s most haunted houses. What was the nameless horror of Berkeley Square?

Story One – Who are the Shadow People?
Flickering in and out of existence, sometimes only for a split second, sometimes longer, but always transient, they leave only questions in their wake. What are their intentions? Where do they come from? Why do they appear? Who or what are the Shadow People?
Story Two – The Curse of the Dab Tsog
During the 1980s, A Nightmare on Elm Street first introduced audiences to the iconic horror character, Freddie Kruger. But as unsettling as the movie was, the true story
that inspired director Wes Craven’s creation of the supernatural killer is equally disturbing. In this story, we examine the terrifying curse of the Dab Tsog.

Story One – Evil Under the Ice
In the aftermath of World War Two, the victorious Allied nations despatched numerous military expeditions into the Antarctic region. Did these battleships weigh anchor in the name of science and exploration, or did they set sail in search of something far more sinister? An evil that dwelt under the ice.
Story Two – The New York Nuke
From solar cannons to time-travelling armies, there are few areas of science fiction which were not inspired in some way by Hitler’s Wonder Weapons programme. In the majority of cases, these outlandish proposals rarely made it off the drawing board. But there is concerning evidence that the Third Reich may have come uncomfortably close to deploying nuclear weapons on American soil.

Story One – The Beast of Bolam Lake
In the northernmost region of England, there lies a small, unremarkable lake. Formerly known as Bolam Bog, it is part of a 65-hectare park teeming with deer and red squirrels. But some claim that there’s something else here as well – something far more dangerous. Since the 1990s, dozens of visitors to the area have reported seeing a tall, hairy creature with large fangs and glowing red eyes. Is it possible that the wilds of Northumberland are indeed haunted by the Beast of Bolam Lake?
Story Two – Shadow of the Wendigo
In the remote northern parts of the United States and Canada, whispers speak of an ancient presence that stalks the forests. Native tribes say it has always been there – a malevolent, cannibalistic beast with an insatiable desire for human flesh. But more recent accounts suggest that this entity’s influence might extend beyond the wilderness. Is it possible that even urban areas are no longer safe from the shadow of the Wendigo?

Part Three
What started out as a search and rescue effort soon turned into a serious investigation into the tragic and untimely deaths of nine young souls. There were many aspects of the case which were highly mysterious and seemed to suggest some sort of foul play. But by who? Or what? In the concluding part of our Dyatlov Pass series, we examine the theories surrounding what happened on that fateful night back in February of 1959 - theories which range from the mundane to the truly extreme.

Part Two
After discovering the collapsed tent of the Dyatlov group, rescuers searched in vain for the missing hikers, hoping they were braving out the harsh Siberian winter in a cave or abandoned hut. The truth, however, was far more gruesome. Only metres away from the abandoned campsite, the bodies of their friends lay silently beneath the pristine snow, each having suffered a multitude of mysterious injuries.

Story One – The Monkey Man of Delhi
Urban legends exist around the world. Mostly, they keep us from parking in dark places at night, or from talking to creepy kids with dark-coloured eyes. But what happens when an urban legend goes viral, causing so much panic that people begin to die because of it? That’s precisely what happened in India in 2001, when residents reported some 350 terrifying encounters with what would eventually become known as the Monkey Man of Delhi.
Story Two – The Dread of the Djinn
Many ancient texts speak of supernatural beings representing the forces of good and evil. However, not all of these entities fit quite so neatly into such categories. For centuries, people in the Arabic world have spoken of creatures who bring fortune and pain in equal measure. But despite the age of these legends, recent reports from the Near East seem to indicate that even our modern world is subject to the dread of the Djinn.

Story Two – The Disappearance of the Nanjing Battalion
Despite modern advances in communications and surveillance technology, human beings continue to vanish from society without leaving a trace. Often such disappearances are eventually explained, but this proves more difficult when the incident involves hundreds, or even thousands of people. Join us as we explore the disappearance of the Nanjing Battalion.

Story Two – There is Something in the Valley
Tucked away within Canada’s Northwest Territories is an area of outstanding natural beauty, inaccessible by conventional means. For decades, people have crossed its boundaries in search of a great fortune, which is rumoured to lie there. Many have emerged empty-handed, but yet more have never returned at all.

Story Two – The Curse of Clapham Woods
Previously, we have explored numerous instances of supernatural activity witnessed at Cannock Chase in Staffordshire, many of which are directly connected to Castle Ring, the remnants of an Iron Age fort at the heart of that region. This week, we journey to another such site, located 200 miles away in southeast England, known for similar disturbing occurrences. Join us as we delve into the Curse of Clapham Wood.

Story One – Mystery of the High Country
Over the last decade, the Australian state of Victoria has been the scene of multiple unexplained disappearances. What is happening to the people who vanish into this region’s isolated, rural areas, and could a mysterious figure potentially hold the key to uncovering their fates? In this story, we explore the Mystery of the High Country.
Story Two – Outback Encounters
In the heart of Australia lies a desolate expanse known for its unsettling reputation. This remote region, steeped in eerie tales, has long blurred the line between reality and the unknown. Are these mysterious encounters mere superstition, or do they hint at something far more enigmatic hidden in the vastness of the Outback?

Story One – The Wavertree Bus Incident
From ghostly sightings, weird time slips and bizarre reality glitches, Liverpool it seems, has something of an obscure history of strange occurrences. But an incident in 1961, which saw multiple witnesses incapacitated by strange figures, would add the possibility of inter-dimensional gateways to the city’s ever-growing list of unusual happenings. Join us as we explore the Wavertree bus incident.
Story Two – The Sandown Clown
During the mid-1970’s, two small children would find themselves confronted by a mysterious figure, whilst holidaying on the Isle of Wight. From their description of this bizarre entity, it still remains unclear whether the encounter was paranormal or extraterrestrial in nature. Join us as we explore the haunting story of the Sandown Clown.
