Description

England is a realm of legends, where the lines between the natural and supernatural blur in eerie ways. In this episode, we unravel the mysteries surrounding one of Victorian England's most chilling figures—Spring-Heeled Jack. Was he a man, a demon, or something else entirely?

Join us as John Matthews delves into the enigma of this flame-breathing, clawed entity who haunted the night, leaping from shadows to terrorize unsuspecting Londoners.

Could this eerie figure be connected to Jack the Ripper, or perhaps an early inspiration for Batman?

We also explore the broader paranormal landscape of England, from its mythic heroes like Robin of Sherwood and King Arthur to spectral hunters like Herne the Hunter.

We even ponder the steampunk fascination with Spring-Heeled Jack and dive into England’s reputation as a land between realms. Are beings like Jack and Krampus Tulpas brought to life by belief?

Discover the legends, the ghost stories, and the dark tales of an ancient land rich with folklore and mystery.
