BooPod Halloween Special - The Red Headed Hitchhiker of Route 44

Haunted UK Podcast

Welcome to the spooky month of October and also to this huge Halloween Collaboration special, released by members of the BooPod network. Our aim for these exciting special bonus episodes is to bring you, our amazing collective listeners, a spookfest series of stories from one of the most strangest, eeriest and unexplained areas in the world....The Bridgewater Triangle, where haunting’s, ghost’s, poltergeists, gruesome true crime, strange creatures, unexplained disappearances and UFO reports are a regular occurrence.
So, as already stated, this is a multipart collaborative series of episodes, where one podcast show will take on a topic of interest from this strange place, delve into it, then pass you on to the next podcast show...and then the next, and so on. If you haven't already listened to our first episode in this Halloween Seasonal Special, then get yourselves over to the brilliant podcast show The Nightcap, who'll be giving you the full introduction into the whole series, as well as a historical run through of where The Bridgewater Triangle is and what goes on there.
In season 2 and episode 3 of the Haunted UK Podcast, we dipped our toes into one of my most favorite elements of the paranormal....the Phantom Hitchhiker. Stories of these amazing apparitions have struck terror and intrigue into so many of us and our imaginations for years, and tales of these spirits come from all around the world, but in the deep, murky and strange land that is the Bridgewater Triangle, there's a phantom hitchhiker that puts many of these other entities to shame.
In this episode, we'll hear about some of the best sightings and experiences, and we'll try to find out who this phantom hitchhiker could be....and when we're finished, it's over to the brilliant Skylark Bell podcast, who'll take this legend in a completely new direction.....you seriously don't want to miss it. They'll be another brief reminder of which Podcast to go to next, as well as details of all of the podcasts who are part of the BooPod network...but for now, let's get started.
Have you seen a ghost, witnessed poltergeist activity, had a strange, unexplained paranormal experience? Have you ever stayed in a haunted location, or experienced something frightening on a ghost tour. Ever better, do you live or work in a haunted house or building? Have you encountered or seen a UFO, heard a story about an unsolved disappearance or mystery, or have you been lucky enough to witness a strange, unknown creature? If you have, then your story could feature on Season 3's listener stories finale episode.
Simply type your story up and email it to [e-mail], that's [e-mail]. It's easy to do, and if you like, you can remain anonymous. Huge thanks in advance to you all.
Besides writing, recording, mixing and mastering this podcast, I also run a mixing and mastering studio called Pink Flamingo Music Productions. If you have a podcast or piece of music that you'd like mixing, mastering, or both, or if you'd like a piece of finished music written for a project that you're working on, then please email the studio with details of your enquiry to [e-mail]. That's [e-mail]. It's nowhere near as expensive as you'd think.
