Writer, broadcaster and journalist Danny Robins joins us to break down famous ghost scenes from movies and TV shows, including Ghostbusters, Paranormal Activity, The Enfield Haunting and The Conjuring. Order Danny's new book Into The Uncanny here: bit.ly/46Wyeue
'The ghosts of today don't live in castles or stately homes, they're in normal houses and workplaces, witnessed by ordinary people like you and me. Now we just need to figure out what the hell they are - the dead returning from the "undiscovered country" of death? Or the product of that equally mysterious location, the human mind?'
Danny Robins is a sceptic who wants to believe. His award-winning podcasts, Uncanny, The Battersea Poltergeist and The Witch Farm, and his smash-hit West End play 2:22 - A Ghost Story have made him "the UK's go-to-ghost guy", and he's on a mission to try to solve this greatest of all mysteries - is the impossible possible?
Into the Uncanny is the story of ordinary people who have experienced extraordinary things and want to make sense of them. Each one is a brand-new case never shared before; modern day, real-life ghost stories that will make your blood run cold. It is also a journey of self-discovery, as Danny explores what the paranormal means to us and the exciting and terrifying prospect that we are not alone.
From poltergeists and apparitions, to UFOs and messages from beyond the grave, Into The Uncanny is a thrilling, adrenaline-filled supernatural adventure. Whether you're Team Believer or Team Sceptic, all you need is an open mind and a bit of courage. So, are you ready to investigate?

Danny ….I love what you do ….I am you as a child …always loved and was terrified by ghost stories….and now I listen to them to fall asleep, not something I could ever have done as a child …..but even now , every so often….I will wake up ( normally to go to the loo ) But I wake with a creeped out sensation, I make sure the lights are on and tell myself “ don’t be silly “ ….and oh so quickly…return to bed at a pace whilst switching of the lights …well , at the speed of lights ….and whumpf back under the covers and in the bed ( not necessarily in that order) Danny robins …..you are brilliant..and I thank you 🙏🏻

I feel like we needed more time with this guy analyzing more movies. For me it was a skeptical click that paid off lol he's great so thank goodness there's a book (yes that's a joke I didn't know penqiun had a channel and I'm delighted 😊)

Huge fan of uncanny, I think it’s brilliant, the way that you have the sceptic a non-sceptic analysis looking very closely at two points of you and so wonderful to see you Covering famous hauntings in famous dramas and films huge fan of listening to uncanny on the radio podcast. All of them have been brilliant.

Ahhh this was great! Loved it at the time. Janet and her ghost voice - what the heck, I’d love to see you interview Janet. Another great movie “when the lights went out” about 30 East Drive. Family haunting are fascinating.

The best movie with 'ghost hunters' involved, is the classic 1963, Robert Wise version of 'The Haunting'. It's fiction, but it's still one of the creepiest movies, ever.

Van Helsing character is always a huge part in ark of anything. Scary if you look at all of the frightening stories, you have the van, Helsing character On virtually every single scary film, obviously from Dracula onwards is it kindly uncle character that understands the paranormal and the scary and it’s on your side or do anything to try and help resolve the fight

@deborahjohnston267 6 месяцев назад

For me, The Sixth Sense was possibly more plausible than any featured here - though no mention of it being based on reality. Perhaps this reinforces the case for our imagination being more powerful than reality👻 There are a few stories in Danny’s book I’d love to be turned into well made films.that don’t stray too far the wrong side of authenticity. Right now, the ice periodically falling from the freezer shelves as it defrosts is all the material I need to make me jumpy. 🙈😂

Seeing that poor Goldfish getting thrown across the room reminds me of a Candid Camera sketch where a man was picking out Goldfish from a bowl and eating them. It turned out to be slices of carrot.

@teggyegg 6 месяцев назад

it slightly annoys me when recent films / games use infrared night vision on handheld video cameras, it's really quite rare now. The story should either be set about 20 years ago when it was common on consumer video cameras or the story needs to explain why they have it (story starts with a hipster in niche camera shop and they find a tape in the camera etc). Thermal cameras are probably more commonly laying about now than infrared, not for home video purposes but for technicians, tradesmen etc. Has a thermal camera been used in entertainment in that way yet? I think it could look great, crazy colours, something could be so cold there is a moving void on the screen, calibrating the camera could also be used for suspense. Ramble over.

How does one become an "expert" on the paranormal, exactly?

@seanwebb605 7 месяцев назад

I'm perfectly fine with being an expert on fantasy. As soon as they suggest there is a credible poltergeist expert that makes fantasy better I'm done.

@PrincessJasmin1111 Месяц назад

He’s really cool! Started to write a horror play so asked for people’s ghost stories on Twitter. He got so many that he eventually turned them into podcasts, a book, and a tv show. Cross referencing paranormal experiences is now literally his whole job. He always says he’s neither a sceptic nor a believer - he’s just there to listen to the story. His podcasts are well worth checking out if you like that sort of thing!

@ivaneames4354 7 дней назад

The dictionary definition of an expert is: "A person with a high level of knowledge or skill relating to a particular subject or activity." He has a wide knowledge of what is believed to be known about the subject, the lore. So yes, the title is completely appropriate.

@EM-lz9kg 2 месяца назад

I don’t think any of them are accurate. I think that they go for the scare tactics to get people in to see the films. I think the accuracy is based on what to do with peoples own experiences that you covered in uncanny.

I'm only asking because something happened to my sister and I when we were in our teens that should have been physically impossible. Scared the wits out of us. When something defies physics, how do you go about describing it? It's definitely not "normal", so does that make it "para-normal"?
