EP03 Swansea's "Most Haunted" Home: A Victorian Ghost Story to Rival Hamlet's Father (Ghosts and Folklore of Wales podcast with Mark Rees)

Did a ghost really help the police discover a buried skull? In
this real-life ghost story MARK REES, author of "Ghosts of
Wales", investigates the facts surrounding a Victorian spectre
which haunted Swansea's 'most haunted' home.


Not only did the spook have the whole city talking, but the
police paid a visit when things took an unexpected turn. In a
real-life scene which sounds like a work of Gothic fiction, there
was a full moon in the sky when that ghost revealed its true
purpose... which is revealed on the Ghosts of Wales podcast!

WHAT IS THE GHOSTS AND FOLKLORE OF WALES PODCAST WITH MARK
REES?

The Ghosts and Folklore of Wales podcast explores the eerie world
of Welsh ghosts, ghost stories, lore, myths, and legends.


Launched by author and journalist Mark Rees (Ghosts of Wales,
Paranormal Wales) in early 2020, this weird and wonderful podcast
delves into the country's countless curious subjects, blending
decades of research from books and articles with long-lost tales
from dusty old tomes.


From "real-life" encounters with the uncanny to fantastical
adventures from the Mabinogion, new episodes are uploaded monthly
and feature everything from pesky poltergeists to fire-breathing
dragons, with the odd wicked — and not-so-wicked — witch along
the way.


Alongside the regular stories, you can expect the occasional
special guest, live ghost hunts, and all sorts of quirky
surprises from a Welsh storyteller with original ideas. Seasonal
specials include dark folklore and Gothic Halloween (Nos Calan
Gaeaf) traditions, plus everyone's favourite skull-headed
Christmas visitor, the Mari Lwyd.


Dare you explore haunted Wales? From the sublime mountains and
cascading waterfalls to bustling cities and remote farms, journey
through the paranormal and unexplained in all corners of Cymru.
Think of it as unlocking the Welsh X-Files with some tenuous
Ghostbusters references and terrible sound effects along the
way!
