Episode 26 — THE GHOSTS OF WOODFIELD HOUSE

In September 1947, eight people gathered inside Woodfield House in Bedfordshire for a séance that would become part of the area’s paranormal history.

Among those present were a councillor, a psychologist, a journalist, a professional medium and a 24-year-old man who would later become one of Britain’s best-known ghost hunters.

As midnight approached, the group sat in complete darkness, joined hands and waited for something extraordinary to happen.

But what really took place inside Woodfield House that night?

In this episode of This Is A Ghost Story, Kathryn and Alison explore the mysterious history of Woodfield House, the people involved in the investigation and the strange events that brought them together.

Andrew delves into the research behind the case, separating the documented history from the paranormal claims.

Was Woodfield House genuinely haunted? Or could there be a more earthly explanation for the events of that September night?

Join us as we uncover The Ghosts of Woodfield House.

THIS IS A GHOST STORY

A deserted road. A mysterious object. And a brand-new car that suddenly refuses to accelerate…

In the early hours of 9th February 1962, 34-year-old Ronald Wildman was driving a new Vauxhall from Luton towards Swansea when he encountered something extraordinary on Ivinghoe Road, near Aston Clinton.

Hovering just feet above the road was a huge, oval-shaped object, estimated to be up to forty feet across, with strange dark markings resembling portholes.

As Ronald approached, his car mysteriously began losing power. The object moved ahead of him, seemingly following the road, before disturbing frost-covered trees and disappearing into the night at incredible speed.

Moments later, his car returned to normal.

But this wasn’t the end of the story.

Police became involved, and UFO investigators subsequently visited the location, interviewed Ronald and conducted tests for radiation and magnetic disturbances.

What did Ronald Wildman really encounter that freezing February morning?

In this week’s This Is A Ghost Story, Kathryn and Alison revisit one of the area’s most intriguing UFO encounters, while Producer Andrew explores the original 1962 investigation, contemporary reports and possible explanations behind the mysterious sighting.

Was it a case of mistaken identity, an unexplained natural phenomenon… or something truly out of this world?

And no, it’s not quite Tring… but The Thing Near Aston Clinton doesn’t have quite the same ring to it!

👻 EPISODE 24 – THE POLTERGEIST OF WILDEN MANOR

Deep in the Bedfordshire countryside lies the quiet village of Wilden. But behind its peaceful rural setting is a strange tale of unexplained disturbances, mysterious happenings and an alleged poltergeist that has become part of the area’s paranormal history.

Our story takes us back to the 19th century, when reports of unsettling events and an extraordinary encounter on a lonely country road would leave more questions than answers.

What really happened in Wilden? Were these events the work of something supernatural, or could there be a more earthly explanation?

Join Kathryn and Alison as they explore the story, while Andrew digs into the research behind this fascinating slice of Bedfordshire’s haunted past.

This episode also draws upon research featured in Damien O’Dell’s book Paranormal Bedfordshire, which we recommend to anyone interested in discovering more about the county’s strange and mysterious history.

Was something truly haunting Wilden Manor? Or has time transformed an unusual series of events into something far more sinister?

🎧 Turn down the lights, settle in… and join us for another episode of This Is A Ghost Story.
