Summary

A museum door opens again after being bolted shut.

A little girl appears beside a hospital lift after death.


And in one family home, missing objects are blamed on something they simply call Derek.


In this second listener stories finale from Season 3 of Haunted UK Podcast, Steve shares another powerful collection of true paranormal experiences sent in by listeners — stories of haunted houses, historic buildings, shadow figures, phantom passengers, restless spirits, and strange presences that seem to attach themselves to people and places.


The episode begins inside an 18th-century country house museum in Yorkshire, where a sceptical curator repeatedly finds a servants’ dining hall door opening on its own. From there, the accounts move to Dublin, where Michael recalls a shadow figure reflected in an old computer monitor, a hospital porter’s chilling encounter with a dead child near the morgue, and CCTV footage of a small figure entering a locked room before a chair moves by itself.


Other stories include Darren’s family account of the phantom woman of Bluebell Hill, a dark figure in a hat climbing the stairs of his childhood home, and Nicky’s experiences of a possible wartime apparition, mischievous spirit activity, footsteps in a Welsh holiday cottage, and strange signs linked to family grief.


The episode also includes Ann’s moving story of “Fred” in a Liverpool terrace, Marion’s sighting at Haden Hill House and the mysterious extra child seen during a family gathering, Matt’s woodland ghost story from Stamford, Emma’s account of sharing her Hampshire cottage with the spirit of a former resident named Jim, and Cassie’s remarkable family history of missing objects, attic disturbances, haunted children’s homes, and a deeply unsettling encounter after exploring a ruined fortress.


Eerie, varied, and deeply personal, this listener-led episode captures the quiet power of real testimony: the small details people never forget, the stories families pass down, and the uneasy sense that sometimes the dead are not gone — only nearby.
