Case 2: The Bearpark Poltergeist

Episode 2 of 3

Ian believes his house was haunted by an entity which would shake drawers, ring bells and even flush the toilet. But could there be a scientific explanation for all this?

As a teenager, growing up in a pit community in County Durham, Ian experienced phenomena that seemed to defy rational explanation. He believes his house was haunted by an entity which would shake drawers, ring bells and even flush the toilet. And Ian wasn’t the only person to witness strange things in the house.

But could there be a scientific explanation for all this? With help from Dr Ciarán O’Keeffe and Evelyn Hollow, Danny investigates Bearpark’s industrial history, the science of sleep paralysis, and the mechanics of a flushing toilet. His quest for answers even takes him deep into the earth, into an abandoned mine shaft.
