Armchair Explorer
BUCKET LIST: Ghost Hunt in the London Tombs with Host Aaron Millar
Episode notes
“I was lying in a coffin in the catacombs beneath London Bridge while a clairvoyant called to the
spirits around me to make themselves known. To say this was not a normal Saturday night
would be to grossly understate the point.”
And so begins, the second of our Halloween specials – a bucket list ghost hunt in the London
Tombs.
When these ancient catacombs were being excavated in 2007, they were found to house the
remains of plague victims who had been buried there centuries before. The builders working at
the time reported numerous strange goings on and insisted on working in pairs for fear of being
alone in those dark recesses.
Today, it is purported to be one of the most haunted places in the city and home to many
trapped souls including one particular menace known only as ‘Shadow Man’.
Told by host Aaron Millar, this is the story of a paranormal investigation he took part in while
on a Halloween assignment for a UK newspaper. Everything that is told here is true, and not
exaggerated. And whether its ghosts, imagination or the power of the mind, things happened
down there which Aaron, a skeptic, still can’t fully explain.
