Pursuit of the Paranormal

Could Bigfoot—or something very much like it—be hiding in the British countryside? In this short bonus episode, we speak with documentary filmmaker Ted Sharp about his plans for an ambitious new film investigating reports of Bigfoot-like creatures across the UK.
Ted reveals what inspired the project, the stories and locations he hopes to investigate, and how he plans to approach one of Britain’s most controversial cryptid mysteries. Will the documentary uncover evidence of an unknown creature—or reveal something equally fascinating about the people searching for it?
Join us as we explore the plans behind a UK Bigfoot documentary currently in the making. What do you think: could an undiscovered creature really be roaming Britain’s forests? Let us know in the comments.

What happens when someone who never really believed in the paranormal suddenly finds themselves running a haunted location?
This week on Pursuit of the Paranormal, Greg and Ash are joined by Scott Kaye from The Daily Detour Paranormalfor a brilliant conversation about how a spontaneous paranormal investigation turned into an obsession — and eventually led Scott and the team to take over The Old Vicarage in Wakefield as their own investigation location.
Scott takes us right back to the beginning, including an early investigation at 30 East Drive, strange REM pod and music-box activity, and the bizarre story of a set of rosary beads that repeatedly disappeared, returned damaged and ultimately ended up locked away in the team’s paranormal museum.
We also get into The Old Vicarage itself and the stories surrounding the building — reported shadow figures, unexplained whistling and knocking, the feeling of being watched, physical sensations experienced by investigators and the story of a supposed Victorian boy named Jack associated with the basement.
Then there are the objects.
Scott talks about The Vault, the Vicarage’s collection of supposedly haunted and historic items, including a new object allegedly connected with a young boy — and Bob the Clown, an object with a history connected to My Haunted Hotel / The Old King’s Head in Chester before eventually finding its way to The Daily Detour.
But what makes this conversation particularly interesting is Scott’s willingness to question his own experiences. Even after moments that felt completely paranormal at the time, he talks openly about going back afterwards, looking for ordinary explanations and asking whether an experience really proves anything at all.
And there’s one experience he still struggles to explain: while investigating The Junction Inn, Scott says he heard what sounded like a young girl crying — almost immediately followed by a REM pod activating in another room. It remains one of the moments that has stayed with him most. Pasted text.txtTXT
We talk haunted locations, attachments, haunted objects, investigation methods, belief vs scepticism, paranormal equipment, building a new investigation team and what comes next for The Daily Detour Paranormal.

What if an alien invasion didn't arrive in spaceships?
What if it arrived as an idea?
This week, Greg and Ash are joined by filmmaker Peter Stylianou, writer and director of the new UFO/sci-fi horror film THE NICE ONES.
Inspired partly by the strange social psychology Peter observed during lockdown, THE NICE ONES explores what he describes as a kind of “mind virus” — people believing they are acting for the greater good while becoming increasingly incapable of seeing themselves reflected in the people they oppose.
That idea eventually became something much darker:
“Maybe the mind virus is the alien.”
But the conversation takes an unexpected turn when Peter reveals an extraordinary personal experience.
Years ago in Camden, Peter says he looked at a man he knew and noticed something deeply strange about his eyes.
At first, Peter assumed he was wearing novelty contact lenses.
Then the man blinked.
And his eyes appeared completely normal.
Peter doesn't claim to know what happened.
He considers unusual lighting, perception, psychology and even the possibility that his own subconscious created an image to warn him about the person.
But he also leaves open another possibility:
What if he actually saw something?
That experience became one of the inspirations behind THE NICE ONES.
From there, the conversation moves deep into the territory Pursuit listeners know and love — UFOs and UAP, consciousness, interdimensional theories, Carl Jung, manifestation, poltergeist phenomena, astral travel, spiritual experiences and the question of whether some paranormal encounters might exist somewhere between an external phenomenon and the human mind.
We also discuss the viral “that motherf***er is not real” plane incident and how the experience of suddenly becoming the focus of millions of people helped inspire the film's protagonist.
And Peter takes us behind the camera to reveal how an independent filmmaker creates ambitious sci-fi on a micro-budget, why one enormous manor house became multiple locations, the realities of film distribution and why actually paying to watch independent films matters.
Plus:
The McPherson Tape.
Paranormal Activity.
Dogman.
Project Blue Beam.
Spiritual protection.
Strange synchronicities.
And why the things we cannot see may be far more frightening than the monsters we can.
This one goes places.
THE NICE ONES — coming soon.

Pursuit of the Paranormal is hosted by Greg & Ash, exploring UFOs/UAP, ghosts, consciousness, cryptids and the stranger edges of human experience.

What if the biggest misconception about crop circles isn't that they're made by humans...
…but that human involvement means the mystery is solved?
In this episode of Pursuit of the Paranormal, Greg and Ash are joined by Citizen D, journalist, author and former crop-circle maker, to explore the extraordinary hidden world behind one of Britain's most misunderstood phenomena.
Citizen D is the author of It Can't Be People: Voices from the Inner Circle, a book built around first-hand accounts from the people who have actually gone into the fields at night and created crop formations.
And what they report completely changes the conversation.
Yes — humans can create astonishingly complex crop circles.
But according to Citizen D and other experienced makers, that is only the beginning.
We get into:
how crop circles are really designed and constructed in darkness;
why Wiltshire, Avebury and other ancient landscapes repeatedly become the centre of the phenomenon;
mysterious orbs and lights appearing during and after formations are made;
separate teams independently creating virtually identical designs;
dreams and compulsions apparently directing makers toward specific symbols and fields;
unexplained additions appearing in formations after their creators have left;
strange figures and presences encountered in the fields;
the Oz Factor and whether anomalous experiences can temporarily alter perception;
synchronicities that seem almost impossible to dismiss as coincidence;
whether crop-circle makers are creating the phenomenon — or somehow participating in something much larger.
Greg also shares his own experience inside the enormous Jellyfish crop circle near Wayland's Smithy, leading to a revelation from Citizen D about who actually made it — and the bizarre story behind its design.
The conversation eventually arrives at a much stranger possibility:
What if crop circles are human-made… but not entirely human-directed?
Are the makers unconsciously communicating with one another?
Are they accessing some shared field of information?
Or is a non-human intelligence interacting with the process?
Citizen D doesn't claim to have the answer.
And that's exactly what makes this conversation so fascinating.
📖 It Can't Be People: Voices from the Inner Circle by Citizen D is available in paperback, Kindle and audiobook.
