LONDON POLTERGEISTS: The Enfield, Battersea and Thornton Heath Hauntings

Wednesday Apr 07, 2021
Poltergeists: does anyone even call them that anymore? This week, Geordie & Michelle look at three scary London hauntings from the 1930s, the 1950s and the 1970s... But only after Geordie does a swear, there's a brief mention of Eavesdroppin' Patron Saint Ben Mendelsohn, Geordie gives herself 10 Jen points and the pair speak in bad German accents. So... onto the hauntings!
Michelle kicks off the ep with the tale of Alma Fielding and the Thornton Heath haunting. Did Alma's pink porcelain dog really smash? Did Alma really manifest a mouse? Why is no one called Alma anymore? Big questions on this week's episode. Was Alma's house really haunted or was she simply projecting repressed memories... You decide!
Geordie moves onto the notorious case of the Enfield Haunting... Specifically, the BBC show The Reunion and the time she heard it in her car and had to pull over, she was so scared! We hear all about the two Peggys, 11 year old Janet Hodgson and a foul mouthed entity called Bill Wilkins who seems to be in love with Janet and how he haunted their lives for 18 months. This was after the girls used a ouija board... SO PEEPS, REMEMBER, YOUR OUIJA BOARD IS NOT A TOY!!!! Then it's onto the Battersea Poltergeist... sit back, grab a cup of mushroom coffee and let Geordie tell you all about Shirley Hitchings and Donald the poltergeist, who haunted her and her family for 12 YEARS!!!! yep. Whoa. What the actual F. Tapping, hammer toes, flying objects and media skepticism all kept the case alive for more than a decade, but at the end of it all, who really knows whether Donald was real or not or indeed, whether any of us will ever know whether Poltergeists truly exist...
Enjoy the episode and KEEP EAVESDROPPIN'!
