  • All Aboard the Boo-Foon Train!

    Episode 27

    What begins as a simple journey across Scotland’s Tay Bridge quickly spirals into a transcontinental paranormal adventure. Steve and Dan, your intrepid Boo-Foons investigators, climb aboard a seemingly ordinary steam train, only to discover it’s anything but.

    As the wheels turn and the whistle blows, the train slips through time and space, chugging into misty landscapes, haunted stations, and folklore-laced railways from around the world. Each carriage holds a clue, each country a ghostly tale, and every stop brings them closer to uncovering the truth behind the spectral locomotives that refuse to rest.

    From the eerie echoes of Victorian platforms to the poetic ramblings of Britain’s most questionable bard (yes, he’s onboard too), this is no ordinary rail ride. It’s a Boo-Foon express, unpredictable, unearthly, and utterly unforgettable.

    So grab your ghost-hunting gear, pack a questionable poem, and join the Boo-Foons as they lay tracks across the paranormal map. The train is leaving the station… and it’s not stopping for logic.

  • The Boo-Foons vs. The Ladies in White

    The Boo-Foons are packing their bags, grabbing their EMF reader, and jetting off on a globe‑spanning paranormal adventure (from the comfort of their PCs). This time, Steve and Dan are on the trail of one of the world’s most widespread ghostly figures: the mysterious women in white.

    From failed weddings to tragic legends, from haunted highways to moonlit dance floors, the lads dive headfirst into the many names, meanings, and misadventures behind these spectral brides. Expect folklore tangles and linguistic detours and join them as they chase phantoms across continents.

  • Boo-Foons Christmas Eve Special: Unwrapping Terror with Tinsel

    This festive season, the Boo-Foons find themselves tangled in fairy lights and fear as they investigate a Dickens, Brides and other paranormal stories. The Brown Lady, legendary ghost of Raynham Hall, makes a surprise appearance… and she’s white. Not just spectral white, but blinding, snowstorm-in-a-nightgown white. She floats through the halls like a possessed snowflake, leaving a trail of confusion.

    And just when you think it couldn’t get any scarier, Steve steps forward with a tale so chilling it makes the ghost gasp. A story darker than midnight mince pies and more disturbing than Dan’s shirt pattern. No spoilers, but let’s just say it involves a cursed celebrity and a Devon holiday camp.


    Join us for a Boo-Foons Christmas that’s equal parts festive and freaky. Ghosts, giggles, and gifts that bite, what more could you want?

  • Ghosts, Gulls & Great Expectations

    The Boo-Foons are back with a seaside adventure that blends history, hauntings, and hilarity. In this episode, Steve and Dan journey to Great Yarmouth to investigate a ghostly tale rooted in the English Civil War. As they explore the windswept coast, they uncover whispers of a spectral soldier said to roam the shoreline, his story lost to time but not to legend. With their signature mix of curiosity and chaos, the Boo-Foons dive into local folklore, searching for clues and conjuring theories that are equal parts spooky and silly.

    Along the way, they pay tribute to Great Yarmouth’s most famous son, Horatio Nelson, and recalibrate expectations around Charles Dickens’ seaside sentiments. Between paranormal ponderings and historical hijinks, there’s time for ice cream, seagull dodging, and a few questionable impressions. It’s a trip that’s as much about the journey as the ghost, and one that proves even the quietest corners of the coast can echo with stories waiting to be told. Tune in for seaside spooks, literary laughs, and Boo-Foonery at its “finest”.
