It’s Monday Mailtime on Paranormal Activity, and Producer Dom is diving into two listener encounters that don’t scream for attention… they simply exist.

Waiting.

First, Rowena shares a deeply unsettling experience from open land near Oxenholme in the Lake District.

A place with no buildings, no obvious history, no dramatic landmarks.

Just space.

But what she felt there was anything but empty.

A heavy, deliberate silence.

A boundary she couldn’t see but instinctively understood.

A thought that didn’t feel like her own: You are not meant to be here.

Step away and it vanishes.

Step back toward it and the pressure returns.

Why does one exact patch of land feel… claimed?

Then Andy recounts a strange encounter on the edge of a residential area beside an electrical substation.

A drifting light that didn’t behave like normal light.

A mechanical hum that faltered into something almost responsive.

A dog that refused to move forward.

And the overwhelming sense that whatever was present wasn’t watching in a human way, but acknowledging.

Was this environmental interference, something interacting with infrastructure… or something operating just outside our understanding?

Dom reacts to both stories, exploring the possibilities behind territorial hauntings, boundary phenomena, land memory, energy anomalies and UAP-linked infrastructure cases, and asks the question:

When a place feels occupied… who — or what is claiming it?

Two locations.

No visible threat.

No dramatic apparition.

Just the quiet certainty that you’ve stepped somewhere you were never meant to stand.

This month’s Listener Special is one of those episodes that reminds us why your stories are at the very heart of Paranormal Activity.

First, we head to Holland Hall Hotel in Lancashire, where Naomi shares an unforgettable experience from the eve of her wedding.

A 17th-century hall known for its hidden priest holes becomes the backdrop for a shared sighting she and her bridesmaid still can’t explain.

A hooded monk-like figure standing silently at the end of their corridor.

Was it connected to the building’s recusant history… or something far older embedded in the walls?

Then Gemma sends in a chilling photograph taken in the 1970s, a Christmas tree glowing softly in the window… and a face staring back from the glass.

When the negative was checked, the figure was still there.

Family members believe it’s her late grandfather.

Is this a classic case of spirit photography, or something imprinted in film at the moment of development?

From there, Georgia takes us to a quiet residential street in Leeds where reality itself seemed to unravel.

Footsteps echoing out of sync.

The same parked van appearing again and again.

A road that refused to end.

Time passing, but not passing.

Was she briefly caught in something that didn’t want her to leave?

We also hear from Ellie in Lanarkshire, who stepped onto an empty football pitch at dusk only to find the environment reacting as though a match was still being played so nets moving, lines bending, grass shifting under unseen feet.

Had she crossed into another moment still unfolding?

And finally, Emily recounts a deeply unsettling night shift at a small regional zoo.

Animals standing frozen in unison.

A rhythmic tapping just beyond the enclosure.

The unmistakable sense of something large moving, unseen, just out of sight… and the chilling realisation that the animals knew exactly where it was.

Five stories.

Five very different encounters.

Shared sightings, photographic mysteries, looping streets, overlapping moments in time, and something pacing in the dark beyond the fence.

As always, you decide what you believe.

Welcome to February’s Listener Special.

This week on Monday Mailtime, Producer Dom explores two haunting listener experiences where the paranormal doesn’t shout… it waits.

First, Eleanor shares a deeply unsettling encounter during a late-night game of bowling in Leeds, where the machinery didn’t just glitch, it anticipated.

From self-resetting pins to a ball that rolled back on its own, the lane seemed to observe, to correct, and to quietly decide when the game was over.

Then, Maria recalls a walk home through Edinburgh that turned chillingly unfamiliar.

A sudden drop in temperature, unseen footsteps pacing behind her, and a thick silence that felt like a trap.

She wasn’t followed by a person, but by something embedded in the land itself.

A place of punishment, perhaps.

Forgotten by history, but not by it.

These are stories where rules are bent, thresholds are crossed, and the spaces we trust.

Streets, bowling alleys, familiar routines then become strangers to us.
