The tale of the Black Monk of Pontefract unfolds as one of the most notorious poltergeist stories in England, centered around the Pritchard family who encountered inexplicable phenomena in their home during the 1960s. From objects moving on their own to the terrifying appearance of a hooded figure, the family’s experiences transitioned from curiosity to sheer terror. The haunting’s origins are speculated to be linked to historical events, including the execution of a monk nearby. As the activity escalated, particularly affecting the family’s daughter Diane, the entity became known affectionately as “Fred.” Through a blend of chilling accounts and unexpected humor, the episode explores the complexities of poltergeist phenomena and the enduring mystery surrounding this infamous haunting.
