Summary

Welcome back, to The Dark Paranormal.

Today’s midseason episode is one I’ve genuinely been waiting for you to hear. It’s exceptionally rare I receive anything with attached photographic evidence, and although it’s been requested not to be shared, believe me when I say the experience itself paints all the imagery you need. I’m being sincere when I say that to me this is one of the most believable experiences we’ve had, and therefore, one of the most terrifying. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did.

Stay safe,

Kevin.

0:00.0	Live from Liverpool, the Dark Paranormal, Season 20.
0:31.7	Hello everyone and welcome to our mid-season episode, episode 5 of season 20.
0:35.3	And I've bigged this one up for a particular reason.
0:39.9	When I go through the submissions which our team put together for me to review,
0:43.1	this one jumped out at me like a sore thumb,
0:46.6	because it also came with pictures attached.
0:51.1	Now today's contributor does wish to remain anonymous, which is fine.
0:54.1	However, they also don't want me to put out the photographs,
1:00.1	because they believe it will definitely give away their location, etc., which, in truth, it would.
1:06.8	And don't worry, the photographs are of nothing paranormal, they're of the locations mentioned in the experience.
1:15.6	However, when I say, lower the lights, make yourself comfortable, etc., I really want you to try and actually do that.
1:19.0	As in, try and listen to this one with your eyes closed.
1:27.0	Really become immersed in it, and I don't believe the lack of photographs will do this experience any harm at all.
1:31.1	Especially having several read-throughs this week before recording this episode. Now, of course, last week we did not say a thank you to any of our newest
1:37.0	patrons because we announced, as we will again, that for the remainder of the month of June to celebrate
1:43.5	our 20th anniversary,
1:45.5	we are giving free trial weeks away for our Patreon's highest tier. That means not only can
1:52.2	you gain full access to add free early releases of everything on the main feed, you can
1:57.7	also gain access to both Darkbytes and the entire Dark Bytes catalogue.
2:03.4	And with that being a weekly 30 minute show, there's approximately 110 plus hours
2:09.8	worth of Patreon-only material for you to go and binge right now on that free trial.
2:16.2	Just head over to patreon.com
