Description

Danny Robins investigates a potential poltergeist haunting in the very first episode of Uncanny Cold Cases, a new series investigating some of the spookiest paranormal events ever documented. The series kicks off with a two-part story that’s been called Britain's most violent ever poltergeist case - The Black Monk of Pontefract. When the Pritchard family move into 30 East Drive in Pontefract, doors slam, objects fly, and the family quickly realise they're not alone in the house. They call the mischievous entity Mr Nobody. Is something supernatural stalking the Pritchards? Or can the team find a more straightforward explanation?Presented by Danny Robins Experts: Evelyn Hollow and Dr Ciaran O’Keeffe Story sections by Joel Morris and Will Maclean Research by Nancy Bottomley and John West Filming and editing by Robb Leech Editing and sound design by Charlie Brandon-King Theme music by Katherine Priddy Theme co-produced by Jennifer Ann Keller Incidental music by Evelyn Sykes Commissioning executive: Paula McDonnell Commissioning editor: Rhian Roberts Produced by Simon Barnard and Victoria LloydA Bafflegab and Uncanny Media production for BBC Radio 4
