Trailer
Something’s coming. [sound effect of wooden cart being pulled across grass with bird song in the background] Do you hear it? Can you see it?
Trundling across the common, following the old holloways, sauntering down the lane, rocking up into the market square, laying out its wares.
It reels you in with mysteries, trades with you fantastic tales, spins for you fascinating stories.
Stories like the haunted pound stretcher, flying saucers, poisoners and body snatchers, haunted woodland, and the secret tunnels beneath our feet.
Weird in the Wade is on its way. A podcast that explores everything that is weird, wonderful and a little off kilter in the town of Biggleswade in Bedfordshire.
If you like your spooky stories told with a dash of historical context or you like your history with a pinch of the paranormal then this is the podcast for you.
On the first Monday of every month Weird in the Wade will weave you a new and fascinating story. Starting on the 1st May with the unexpected and so far unexplained case of Biggleswade’s haunted pound stretcher. Listen where ever you get your podcasts and you can find out more at weird in the wade on twitter, Instagram and the Weird in the wade blog at weirdinthewade.blog
Here’s a snippet of what is instore for you with episode one.
“But it wasn’t just cold spots, and the sensation of being watched. Mary who also worked there described “hearing voices” she described hearing someone call for her from the back storeroom, [Mary! Mary!] she thought it one of her colleagues but when she got to the top of the stairs to see what they wanted, there was no one there. No one had been calling her. [sound effect of footsteps on the stairs] I have also read reports that foot steps were often heard on these stairs when no one else was in the building when no one could be walking on them. And I can report, having sat upstairs in what was once this area of the shop, these stairs are exceptionally creaky. You’d hear if someone was walking on them. More about how I got to witness this later in the episode.”
