About this listen
Every now and then, I like to branch out beyond Edinburgh and Scotland and bring you a case from further afield - one that’s too strange, too unnerving, and too well-documented to ignore. But just as importantly, I want to bring you the stories that don’t always get the spotlight. The ones that risk being forgotten.
This is one of them
In 1889, a remote farmhouse in Clarendon, Quebec became the centre of one of the most unsettling paranormal cases in Canadian history. The Dagg family claimed they were haunted by a presence that moved furniture, tore beds apart, attacked a young girl - and spoke aloud in a deep, gravelly voice.
This wasn’t folk tales. Seventeen people signed formal witness statements. Journalists, neighbours, clergy, and even a spiritualist investigator and famous painter named Percy Woodcock all confirmed something extraordinary was happening. The voice identified itself as the Devil. It mocked, threatened, and asked for forgiveness.
But that was just the beginning.
In this episode, we explore the incredible case of the Dagg Poltergeist.
This isn’t just a ghost story. It’s something else.
