About this episode

Story One – The Gurning Man of Glasgow

During the late 1970’s, the inhabitants of Scotland’s largest city were subjected to a series of terrifying encounters with a hideous nocturnal entity, whose incessant twitching and animalistic grunting put the fear of God into those who encountered him. This week, we take a look at the Gurning Man of Glasgow.

Story Two – The Night of the Tokoloshe

In previous episodes, we have explored tales of strange and bizarre creatures. But whilst often enigmatic in nature, few have been quite as malevolent and haunting as the entity we will encounter this week. An African legend in possession of supernatural capabilities, which it utilises to carry out a truly evil agenda. Join us, as we examine the Tokoloshe.
