Episode 339 - The Black Monk of Pontefract: a Poltergeist Haunting

Author: Sony Music Entertainment September 14, 2025 Duration: 1:27:54
Welcome to Britain’s most haunted house — 30 East Drive in Pontefract — where a seemingly ordinary family home turned into a prison of nightmares. What started with mysterious puddles, floating dust clouds, and furniture that moved on its own quickly escalated into full-blown poltergeist chaos. Known by the Pritchard family as Fred, the Black Monk of Pontefract wasn’t just mischievous — it was terrifying, violent, and maybe even hungry (yes, this spirit snacked on sandwiches). From eggs exploding mid-air to priests fleeing after failed exorcisms, the Pritchard family lived through a haunting so wild it inspired an actual horror film. But in between the chills, there are moments so bizarre they’re almost funny — like disembodied fur gloves conducting a hymn sing-along. Still, the poltergeist’s obsession with teenage Diane, culminating in a nightmarish attempt to drag her away, proved this was no harmless prankster.
