Clinton Baptiste's Paranormal Podcast
Season 7 - Episode 07
Hello, my spectral spectators! Clinton Baptiste here, broadcasting from the legendary Cheese and Grain Theatre in Somerset—a venue so atmospheric, it’s practically haunted by talent!
This week, we're back on the road with Harry, who, sadly, is leaving us. But fear not, his spirit lingers with us! We chat about his favourite moments on tour—Harry loved the mystical north of England and working with an array of eclectic techs. Funny how he didn’t mention me, but no offence taken!
Linda's back in the studio, and yes, it’s still a bit echoey. I’ve draped duvets around to absorb the ethereal whispers. Linda's been treating her body like a temple, dining on poached eggs on toast and salads. Hilarious, considering I just handed her a salted caramel brownie two minutes ago!
Now, onto the spine-tingling tales! From Fate and Fortune magazine, we bring you a hair-raising story from Lady Cadaver: "Who Was the Old Lady Walking Towards the Ward?" This chilling tale of a nurse who encountered a talking ghost in the ward is guaranteed to send shivers down your spine. Thank you, Gillian, for this supernatural scoop!
I was also in Carlisle, where I met Dave Beatie and his wife Rebecca—both a bit worse for wear after one of my shows. In the bar, amidst slurred words and giggles, Dave recounted a ghostly encounter in a Welsh hotel where the kettle turned on by itself in the dead of night. Rebecca chimed in with her own tipsy tales, making for an evening of spooky, drunken fun. Simply incredible, right?!
We delve into spooky signs with Maria Fletcher’s tale of her late mum’s messages from beyond. Blue roses and cryptic car registrations—are these signs from the universe or just whimsical coincidences? You be the judge!
Another eerie tale involves a haunted dummy named Uncle Herb. Nothing like a creepy ventriloquist dummy to send shivers down your spine!
I also speak to Gavin Cunningham, who sent us a ghost story. A little advice, Gavin—maybe finish your dinner before recording next time?
Linda and I dive into more Fate and Fortune stories and loads of other chit-chat to keep your paranormal senses tingling.
Send me a voice note on your phone to clinton@clintonbaptiste.com. I’d love to hear your spooky stories!
Stay tuned for an episode filled with laughter, chills, and the otherworldly advice you've come to love.
Stay spooky, my friends.
