Haunted Roads of Merseyside: The Old Man of Halsall Moss & Other Ghost Stories

March 24
1h 10m

Episode Description

Dr Rob Gandy takes us deep into the mysterious flatlands of Halsall Moss — a quiet corner of Merseyside/Lancashire that has become one of Britain’s most intriguing hotspots for road ghosts and phantom hitchhikers.

Starting with his friend’s chilling 1965 experience of an elderly man who materialised in the back seat of his car and then vanished, Rob shares a wealth of firsthand and secondhand accounts: disappearing farmers, monks walking through walls, phantom white vans, shadow figures, talking hitchhikers, and other bizarre phenomena on the same lonely lanes.

He explores classic vanishing hitchhiker folklore, discusses possible explanations, and answers audience questions in a lively Q&A.


Perfect listening for fans of real ghost stories, British folklore, haunted roads, and serious paranormal research.
