Ken Webster, a schoolteacher, was working on a BBC Micro computer when strange messages began to appear—written in an archaic form of English, and allegedly sent by someone living in the year <strong>1541</strong>. The messages continued over the following months, becoming more elaborate and unnerving. Later, new messages arrived this time from someone claiming to live in the <strong>year 2109</strong>, warning of unseen forces manipulating time itself.</p><p><br></p><p>Known today as the <strong>Dodleston Messages</strong>, this case remains one of the strangest examples of alleged time slip communication in modern paranormal lore. Was it an elaborate hoax, a psychological trick… or genuine contact across centuries? In this episode of <em>Mysteries at Bedtime</em>, we examine the digital trail, the witness accounts, and the unanswered questions behind one of Britain’s most haunting tech-era mysteries.</p>","author_name":"Jack Laurence"}
