30 East Drive, Pontefract: an ordinary-looking house that became the scene of one of Britain’s most violent poltergeist hauntings. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, the Pritchard family endured slammed doors, objects flying across rooms, physical attacks—and sightings of a tall, dark-robed monk figure said to be the restless spirit of a 16th-century murderer executed on the site.

In our Portal Files series, Den and Luke delve into the vast spectrum of the unexplained — from chilling UFO encounters and elusive cryptids to perplexing mysteries and haunting paranormal cases. Through their own investigations and meticulous research, they unravel eerie evidence, dark histories, and enduring questions that fuel global fascination, offering a gripping exploration of the supernatural and beyond.

Often called “Europe’s most haunted house,” 30 East Drive has produced shadow figures on the stairs, orbs with glowing eyes, self-filling water jugs, and chilling photos of the infamous Black Monk himself. Den and Luke examine the family’s terrifying experiences, the historical roots of the entity, and the extraordinary evidence captured by investigators over the decades—including the visitor images that still shock the paranormal community today.
