92. Amityville Buried This Haunting...But You Need to Know About It.
In 1977, The Amityville Horror put a haunted house on every bookshelf in the world. Within weeks, a second book appeared beside it, which seems to have been overshadowed. Yet it’s a truly compelling (and eerie) haunting case. Night Stalks the Mansion was written by Harold Cameron and Constance Westbie, and it records what happened to the Cameron family in the early 1960s, when Harold, a business executive with a wife, four children and a six-month-old baby, rented a house for $3,600 a year.The house itself is the Heilbron Mansion, just off West Rose Tree Road in Middletown, Pennsylvania, and what the Camerons met there has never had the audience it deserves.Footsteps climbing the stairs at night, and an intense cold that arrived with them. Two five-month-old chow puppies bought as guard dogs, who shrank back from a woman in the house in absolute dread. A basement window painted black, inside and out, hiding a room the family had never seen. Coffins in a crypt on the grounds, rotted down to fragments of cloth and dust, with skulls looking up at the torchlight.And beneath all of it, an older story. A girl of fourteen. A maple tree. A single pink dance shoe.I'll take you through the whole case, in the order the Camerons recorded it, and we'll come to the girl at the centre of it, whose story this house would not let go of.Have you ever lived somewhere that felt wrong before you could explain why? Let me know in the comments. I'm Peter Laws, and this is Into the Fog.EditorGerard Giorgi-CollArtwork and Research AssistanceSteph LayThis episode is based on Night Stalks the Mansion: A True Story of One Family's Ghostly Adventure, by Constance Westbie and Harold Cameron.

91. They Said They Were Collecting For Charity. In the Middle of the Night.
Eight figures in hooded robes. Burning torches. A freshly dug grave in a Scottish churchyard.This is Into the Fog Embers, my companion series, where I share case updates and shorter paranormal accounts sent in by viewers. Not every story becomes a full documentary investigation, but some are too intriguing not to tell. Tonight's Embers case comes from a viewer and centres on two strange incidents connected to St Lolan's Church and burial ground, also known as Kincardine Graveyard, at Blair Drummond, near Stirling, in Scotland.The first took place in the early 1980s. Darren's mother was cycling home past the old cemetery in the early hours of the morning when she saw something she has never forgotten. She told a neighbour, who went down to the graveyard to confront them himself, and came away with a perfectly ordinary explanation. It was only afterwards that he realised how strange that explanation really was.The second comes from the late 1990s, when Darren's uncle was working in the same cemetery. Two men, years apart, both affected by the same grave enclosed in iron railings — and by what its 1813 inscription actually says. Do you know this churchyard, or have you heard the local stories connected to it? I would love to hear from you in the comments below.EditorKristian LanderArtwork Steph Lay/Kristian LanderWith thanks to Darren Ferrier for sharing his family’s strange memories of St Lolan’s burial ground, and for giving us the opportunity to explore the intriguing history surrounding them. Research and Image CreditsSpecial thanks to Roger Griffith for allowing us to use his footage of St Lolan’s Kirk and Burial Ground, and for the helpful correspondence about the Downie gravestone featured in Darren’s story.

90. The Poltergeist That Started in the Sky [Aveley]
They drove into a glowing green mist in 1974 and lost 3 hours. What followed them home turned a UFO encounter into a terrifying poltergeist haunting.On 27th October 1974, John and Sue Day drove home to Aveley, Essex with their three young children when a pale blue light paced their car, the radio crackled and died, and a dense, glowing green mist swallowed the road. A 20-minute drive became nearly 3 hours missing. Then came nightmares of medical procedures, shadow figures, a clown-like visitor, moving objects, opening doors, humming and clicking, and phantom phone calls, much of it witnessed by investigators themselves.In this episode, I investigate the Aveley case. One of Britain's most disturbing combined abduction and haunting cases. As UFO disclosure and talk of non-human intelligence grows, are abductions and hauntings part of the same phenomenon? And could this be linked to the infamous Sandown Clown case, which happened a year earlier, only 100 miles away? I'm Peter Laws and this is Into the Fog. Real paranormal cases. Real witnesses. Told by a real person.What do you think followed them home? Let me know in the comments.EditorGerard Giorgi-CollArtworkSteph LayResearchMarcus LowthResearch and Image Credits This episode draws on Andrew Collins’ original two-part investigation of the Aveley case, published in Flying Saucer Review in 1978:Part One: Vol. 23, No. 6Part Two: Vol. 24, No. 1Original theatrical poster for The Fog: AVCO Embassy Pictures, via IMDbPhotograph of Andrew Collins: via IMDbArtist’s impression of Sam the Sandown Clown: Symbioticwolfkat13, CC-BY-SA, via NewgroundsPhotograph from Strange Days Festival, September 2026: Peter LawsFootage of Claire and Peter, Paranormal Storytelling on YouTube, Strange Days Festival, September 2026: @DontScareClaireHave a genuine experience to share?

95. Police Walked In on a Mass Possession [Miami Aerospace Academy]
On October 25th, 1979, Miami police and firefighters walked into the Miami Aerospace Academy in Little Havana and found hundreds of cadets in full panic.A 13-year-old girl rigid and sobbing that "the devil is inside of me," other pupils growling and twitching, a boy who crashed through a second-floor window and got straight back up, classroom doors torn from hinges, and teachers unable to hold order. The next day The Miami News ran it front-page as "Ouija Riot Baffles Police!"I'm Peter Laws and this is Into the Fog. In this episode I investigate what really happened at the Miami Aerospace Academy in Miami, Florida, drawing on testimony from biology teacher Patricia Murphy, former Miami police sergeant Lynne Brookes, deputy fire chief Frank Rollason, officer Harry Cunnill, Lt. Dan LeMay, principal Evaristo Marina, and WCKT-Channel 7 camerawoman Beverly Bryan, plus the Santeria offerings found on campus, the cursed F84 jet, and the debate over mass hysteria vs something darker.This is a true paranormal story, never fictionalised, with real witnesses on the record.Let me know in the comments… what do YOU think happened in that school that day?Want even more Into the Fog?

93. News Crew Caught a Poltergeist on Camera [Beauport, 1989]
Was a poltergeist caught on camera by a Canadian news crew?Summer, 1989. In Beauport, Quebec, an entire apartment building on Mgr-Gauthier Street came alive, violent banging that shook partition walls, ragged holes punched through plasterboard in real time, and dark shadows at the edge of vision. Witnesses weren't just tenants. Police officers, gas engineers and city inspectors all felt it.In this true ghost story, I investigate the Beauport Poltergeist, the TVA footage from August 4th 1989, what Lt. Guy Bedard and Inspector Gaston Dubé experienced, why gas, clay soil and plumbing theories failed, and the two chilling triggers: reported seances after a death downstairs, and 12-year-old Zoe's summer stay.This is a documented poltergeist true story, never fictionalised, told from contemporary press and investigator notes.

92. They Found Crucifixes Hidden Under the Carpet [Jinn Encounter] EMBERS
Her father called an imam to perform an Islamic exorcism on their house. Then builders found crucifixes hidden under the carpet.Welcome to Into the Fog Embers, my companion series for case updates and shorter true paranormal accounts that deserve telling, even when they're not full-length documentaries.Tonight's Embers comes from Zaynab, one of my Patreon supporters. When she was 8, her family moved into a house with a granny flat in the garden that had stood empty for a long time. She began seeing faceless figures, an elderly man in an armchair, a figure striding toward her in the garden, later a faceless child in her bedroom. The atmosphere turned cold and silent, like stepping underwater. Her father asked a local imam to perform an Islamic exorcism. As he recited, Zaynab began shaking uncontrollably, filled with anger and an urge to make him stop.Months later, builders lifting the carpets found several crucifixes hidden underneath. Had the previous owners,an elderly Irish Catholic couple, also experienced the paranormal in that property? I'd especially love to hear from Muslim viewers, does this fit with your understanding of jinn?IMPORTANT: Into the Fog welcomes people of all faiths and none. So just because this story features two religions (Islam and Christianity), please don't use that as a springboard to attack one faith or the other. Respect for fellow viewers is an important part of the Into the Fog community.
