Macabre London Podcast

The news in 2021 got pretty weird! There were time travellers on TikTok and Yeti's in Yorkshire. Join me today to find out more about these weird stories.First up we learn about a tiktoker who is apparently from the future. Tiktok user Timetraveller2582 popped up claiming they were from the future and prophesying the weirdest events that may happen in the next few years.Then, a YouTube channel popped up with vintage videos which they'd discovered of a lost set of documentaries on @British Cryptids which spawned a channel of the same name.British Cryptids pieced together these documentaries into some kind of salvageable order and have published them throughout the year. Please go and subscribe to their channel for more vids. I can't wait to see what they unearth next.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCA0B...Thanks so much for watching!If you like it here, then come and join our ghoul gang, hit that subscribe button and come to the dark side, it's fun here, we have stories!---------------------------------------

You can watch this episode here: https://youtu.be/8TkL_p03UqIOn a dull and overcast morning on Tuesday the 28th of june 1887, a curious situation occured at a lodging house in the east end of London. The body of a young woman was found on her bed in her lodging house. Her skin was quickly eroding from her face and arms. What had happened to this woman and why was her skin disintegrating. Furthermore, was the person responsible still nearby, perhaps peering out from under the bed watching the chaos unfold. And subsequently, what would this murder have to do with the murders of 5 women in the East end by Jack the Ripper which began just a year later. Today on Macabre London, we uncover the murder of Miriam Angel.Thanks so much for watching!

For most people it’s generally believed that your soul leaves your body when you die and that if you believe in reincarnation, that’s the point when a new life may begin.But what if one night you went to sleep and woke up the next day in the same body but with an entirely new soul, a new personality and even a new name, leaving the old you behind and picked up where you’d left off in your old life, but with a new person inhabiting your meat suit!Sounds absurd doesn’t it but this strange phenomena happens to more people than you’d think and can apparently happen at any time, to anyone, you may already be a walk-in and not realise!Today on Macabre Mini Mysteries, we take a look at the fascinating world of walk In’s.-------------------Thanks so much for watching!If you are new here, you may not know that Macabre London is a fortnightly podcast and YouTube show that delves into Londons haunted and gruesome history alongside discovering Macabre mini Mysteries from all over the world!

The weird history of the 1904 Olympics is insane. The Louisiana Worlds Fair hosted the 1904 Olympics Games and the marathon event was so poorly organised it nearly caused many of the competitors to lose their lives. Wild dogs, poison, cheating and dust wreaked havoc with the runners and it's surprising anyone managed to finish let alone win!Join me today for another Macabre Mini Mystery as I delve into the 1904 Olympic Marathon.*I made a few geographical mistakes in the video (was concentrating on the story, not the place, oops!) So.... St. Louis is pronounced “Lewis” and only called by the French pronunciation as a nickname or slang. I keep saying Louisiana, but the 1904 St. Louis olympics were in St. Louis, Missouri. The Louisiana Purchase includes territory that is now divided into several states, Missouri among them.So before you feel the need to email me or to leave a 1 star review, please know, geography is hard, particularly if you're not from there!! *----------------------------If you are new he

On the evening of the 30th of October 1938, puffs of green gas were seen erupting at regular intervals by astronomers from the planet Mars and that something was headed on its way toward earth.The unusual activity was reported live on the radio to over a million listeners.Once the unidentified flying object had reached our planet, it crash landed in the nowhere town of Grover's Mill New Jersey.What was seemingly a meteorite, was inhabited and what was inside was proving to be decidedly hostile.Radio listeners heard eerie reports from live at the scene and when the Martians started to move, using a deadly heat ray which set anything it touched aflame, the broadcast went silent.Those hearing the broadcast fearing for their lives fled their homes, called their loved ones and police stations received droves of enquiries asking what to do. Today we’ll be uncovering the mystery behind the hoax as we uncover the macabre mini mystery of Orson Welles' War Of The Worlds.-------------------------------PATREON——————————-
