Meet the Team
Sarah
Joint host of the podcast, plus writer, editor, researcher, Sarah is also an author with her debut work, Tales from the Whispering Woods by Sarah J H Powell, launching in spring 2025. She is a mother of three, and grandmother to one has been obsessed with horror and the paranormal since an early age. Back in the 80's she would gather her friends during the wet summer holidays to record scary stories with her cassette player and drag them on ghost hunts to a creepy, abandoned nunnery-just for fun. Not much has changed really!
Tobie
The apple never really falls far from the tree they say and like mum, Tobie is also obsessed with anything scary. The other joint host of the show can often be found gorging himself on creepy TikTok stories and no longer cries for his mummy when spooked. He actually looks forward to his nightmares - well each to their own...
Roger
The music man of the show, in his real life Rog is a photographer and old punk! Rog arranges the musical elements for the podcast and, being Sarah's partner, has to endure her particular taste in paranormal TV, real life ghost stories and scary podcasts.
