Show Notes
In the 1960s, a family living at 30 East Drive in Pontefract, England began reporting increasingly violent activity inside their home. Objects moved. Furniture was thrown. Strange banging filled the house. Then their teenage daughter Diane became the target. According to her family, an unseen force grabbed her and began dragging her up the staircase while they fought to pull her back. Later, multiple people claimed to see a tall hooded figure inside the house , the entity that would eventually become known as the Black Monk of Pontefract. But the deeper you go into this case, the stranger it gets. Some incidents may have been exaggerated or faked, and the historical story supposedly explaining who the Black Monk was appears to have serious holes. So if the figure people claimed to see wasn’t actually the monk from the legend…what were they seeing? Good luck sleeping tonight. 🪓
