  • The Boo-Foons Hunt for Aliens in Calder Valley

    The Boo-Foons are back on the trail of the unexplained, and this time, their journey takes them deep into the misty moors and mysterious valleys of northern England. Their latest adventure unfolds in the Calder Valley, a region steeped in folklore, strange lights, and stories that blur the line between reality and the otherworldly.

    Into the Valley of Mystery

    Todmorden and Hebden Bridge have long been whispered about in UFO circles. Nestled among rolling hills and shadowed woods, these towns have seen their fair share of odd occurrences, glowing discs in the sky, strange figures in the fields, and encounters that defy explanation. Even a local police officer once reported an encounter that left investigators scratching their heads.

    For the Boo-Foons, this is the perfect setting for their next investigation. Armed with cameras, curiosity, and their trademark mix of humour and disbelief, they dive headfirst into the stories that have haunted the valley for decades.

    The Witnesses and the Whispers

    Locals recall eerie nights when the stars seemed to move in unnatural patterns, and lights hovered silently above the moorland. Some claim to have seen small grey figures darting between trees, while others insist the valley itself hums with an energy that draws the unknown.

    The Boo-Foons interview witnesses, explore the sites of alleged sightings, and test every theory, from secret military experiments to interdimensional visitors. Their mission: to separate fact from folklore, and maybe, just maybe, to catch a glimpse of something truly out of this world.

  • Boo-Foons meet The Bantering Banshees.

    Boo-Foons Join Bantering Banshees After Dark for a Paranormal Crossover Packed with Chaos, Chills, and Laughter.

    The Boo-Foons Mystery Investigators are celebrating a major moment in their ever-growing paranormal escapades: a guest appearance on the latest episode of Bantering Banshees After Dark. The crossover marks a lively collision of two fan‑favourite teams, bringing together the Boo-Foons’ trademark blend of curiosity, chaos, and good‑natured boo‑foonery with the Banshees’ late‑night storytelling flair.

    A Night of Shared Hauntings and Hysterics

    Listeners are treated to a rare meeting of minds, and mischief as Steve and Dan crash the Banshees’ after-hours recording. The conversation dives straight into real personal paranormal encounters, the kind that linger in the back of your mind long after the lights go out. Both teams swap stories of eerie happenings, unexplained sensations, and the strange little moments that make even seasoned investigators glance over their shoulders.

    Despite the creeping tension, the room never stays serious for long. Every unsettling detail is balanced with laughter, quick-fire banter, and the kind of camaraderie that only comes from people who spend far too much time poking at the unknown.

    A Finale That Tests Nerves and Instincts

    As the episode winds into the small hours, the teams take on a game designed to push their instincts, bravery, and composure to the limit. With the unknown poking back at every turn, the challenge becomes a perfect blend of suspense and silliness, exactly the kind of energy both shows thrive on.

    And the Best Part? The Collaboration Isn’t Over

    The Boo-Foons have confirmed that the Banshees will be joining their show very soon, marking the second half of this paranormal double‑feature. Fans of both podcasts can expect even more shared chaos, more stories from the shadows, and more moments where everyone laughs just a little too loudly to hide the nerves.

    The Boo-Foons say they’re “really excited” for what’s ahead, and if this first crossover is anything to go by, listeners have every reason to be as well.

  • The Boo-Foons & Oddtrots: The Mystery of the Green Children of Woolpit

    Episode 28

    This week, the Boo-Foons team up with John from Oddtrots for a delightfully strange expedition to Suffolk, where one of England’s most enduring mysteries first took root: the Green Children of Woolpit. According to 12th‑century accounts, two children with green-tinted skin appeared near the village, speaking an unknown language and refusing all food except broad beans. Over time, their colour reportedly faded, and the surviving child claimed they came from a twilight world called St Martin’s Land, where the sun never fully shone.

    In true Boo-Foons fashion, Steve, Dan, and John dive into the legend with equal parts curiosity and chaos, sampling broad beans, scanning the countryside for wolves (a nod to Woolpit’s historic wolf pits), and attempting to decode the children’s mysterious language. It’s folklore meets field trip, with plenty of laughs woven through the history, theories, and wonderfully weird details that make this centuries-old tale so irresistible.

    If you love your mysteries with a side of education and a generous helping of Boo-Foonery, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

  • Boo-Foons Investigate: Boscastle’s Museum of Witchcraft and Magic

    When the Boo-Foons rolled into Boscastle, we expected misty cliffs, spectral whispers, and maybe a cursed pasty or two. What we didn’t expect was a museum so packed with occult oddities, magical mischief, and eyebrow-raising artefacts that we left both enlightened and slightly scandalised.

    Nestled in the heart of this Cornish coastal village, the Museum of Witchcraft and Magic is a treasure trove of folklore, ritual, and the downright bizarre. From Wiccan robes to ceremonial daggers, the exhibits span centuries of magical practice, folk magic, Freemasonry, divination, and more. But let’s be honest: we were drawn to the weird stuff. The rude stuff. The stuff that makes you glance around nervously before giggling like schoolchildren.

    The Artefacts That Raised Eyebrows (and Spirits)

    Among the museum’s more infamous pieces are the Fanny Stone and Cock Rock, two geological wonders that prove Mother Nature has a wicked sense of humour. The Fanny Stone, a naturally eroded slab with an unmistakably yonic shape, sits proudly among fertility charms and goddess effigies. Meanwhile, Cock Rock is exactly what it sounds like: a phallic stone formation that would make even the most seasoned warlock blush.

    These aren’t just naughty novelties, they’re part of a long tradition of sacred sexuality in magical practice. Fertility rites, sympathetic magic, and the worship of generative forces have deep roots in pagan belief systems. Still, when you’re face-to-face with a stone that looks like it belongs in a hen party gift bag, it’s hard not to crack a joke.

    Paranormal Vibes and Pentagram Selfies

    As we explored the museum’s shadowy corridors, we encountered everything from poppets and potion bottles to a life-sized Horned God statue that seemed to follow us with its gaze.

    Outside, the slate-roofed building is adorned with herbs, symbols, and a pentagram that practically begs for a selfie. A black cat perched on the wall added to the ambiance, while an owl on the chimney watched us like a feathered bouncer guarding the secrets within.

    Final Thoughts: Bewitched, Bothered, and Boo-Fooned

    Boscastle’s Museum of Witchcraft and Magic is more than just a collection of curios, it’s a living archive of belief, rebellion, and the human desire to understand the unknown. Whether you’re a seasoned occultist or just here for the rude rocks, it’s a must-visit for anyone with a taste for the uncanny.

    We left with a deeper appreciation for magical history, a few questionable photos, and the lingering suspicion that we may have been cursed.

  • The Boo-Foons vs. The Phoenix Lights

    The Boo-Foons have ditched the fog and found the fire, welcome to Arizona, USA. With backpacks full of snacks and minds full of alien lore, Steve and Dan head into the desert to chase the legend of the Phoenix Lights.

  • Boo-Foons at Land’s End: Ghost Dogs, Royalty, and Reckless Spending

    This week, the Boo-Foons take their paranormal pandemonium to the windswept cliffs of Land’s End, where the sea crashes, the ghosts bark, and the signage costs more than a small mortgage.

    Steve and Dan arrive with high hopes and low financial literacy, determined to investigate two legendary tales of ghostly dogs said to haunt Cornwall’s rugged coastline. What begins as a serious supernatural study quickly devolves into a chaotic blend of canine capers, historical confusion, and questionable fiscal decisions
