The Pittville Circus Haunting
The Loreboys have returned!
Alasdair kicks off Series 7 with the story of amateur ghost-hunter Rosina C. Despard. Her Cheltenham home was the site of one of the most well-documented hauntings of the 19th century… Or was it?
Creaks on the stair! A rustle of cloth! A face hidden by a handkerchief! It simply has to be a ghost… Surely?
We promise not to end every sentence this series with an ellipsis followed by a question… Or do we?
See Alasdair On Tour in 2026!
