Summary
On this week’s Monday Mailtime, Producer Dom returns with two unsettling listener encounters that take everyday places and twist them into something unforgettable.
First, Jimmy recounts a strange and silent moment in the middle of bustling Camden Market, where the world seemed to mute itself and a single vintage key moved on its own, like it had chosen him.
Was it a glitch in reality… or something older reaching out?
Then, Lewis shares a chilling memory from a quiet farm near York, where a simple trip to the barn turned into a harrowing encounter with something unseen, something that might still be lingering among the wooden walls.
Markets, barns, and everyday silence… until it isn't.
Tune in, if you dare.

But looked confused and said, strange. That one never stayed in place. Customers said it as a mind of its own. I didn't buy it.
