    S01 - Episode 13 - The Lady of the Stairs by LJ Aldon
    Dec 12 2025
    “The famous one is the Lady of the Stairs. Around the late 1400s, there was a woman who was a mistress of one of my ancestor’s lairds. His vengeful wife locked her up in one of the castle turrets, where she perished from not eating. Some psychics have seen her. She walks the stairways at night.” “That’s a lie,” a voice hissed in Pucci’s ear—warm breath prickled her cheek...

She currently lives in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA where she also works as an engineer and consciousness leadership consultant. Her passions are helping the planet evolve, her family and her dog. Her influences are Agatha Christie, Ellery Queen, Laurie R. King, Katherine Kurtz, Deborah Turner Harris, and Dan Brown.

    The Hollow Rooms stood on the crest of the mountain like a black crown…. A long drive curved up through wrought iron gates, their bars twisted into the shapes of roses and thorns. The two figures who had been waiting were staff members—a man in a black suit with a gold watch chain, and a woman in a gray dress buttoned high to her neck.

    In today’s Haunted Holiday episode, we’ll be reading a chilling story titled The Hollow Rooms, which was sent in to us by Ian Harris. Ian grew up experiencing paranormal events first hand, occurrences that still happen to this day some 3 decades later. His real-life accounts can be found on the Haunted UK podcast episode 62 titled 30 Years and Counting. Ian’s strong empathy skills and uncanny ability to sense people’s energy and moods before even speaking with them, along with local folklore and legends, have inspired his writing.

    We truly hope you enjoy the first part of this terrifying tale. Stay tuned to the Haunted UK Fiction podcast for Part Two, and more of Ian’s stories in future episodes.
