Ghosts in Jesmond? Paranormal podcaster Danny Robins wants to hear from you
Newcastle-born paranormal investigator and award-winning writer Danny Robins is calling on anyone with ghostly tales from Jesmond to get in touch – as he delves into a potential new story for his hit podcast, Uncanny.
Danny, who grew up in Jesmond, is currently investigating a possible paranormal case in the suburb and is appealing to local residents – past and present – to share any unexplained experiences they’ve had in the area.
“We’re investigating a potential #Uncanny story in the student area of Jesmond in Newcastle (incidentally where I grew up!) and would love to hear from anyone who’s had a potential paranormal experience in Jesmond, either in the modern day or as far back as the 80s/90s,” he posted.
Anyone with a chilling encounter or eerie memory is encouraged to contact him directly via email at danny@dannyrobins.com.
Danny has become one of the UK’s leading voices in paranormal storytelling, with a growing fanbase hooked on his BBC podcasts Uncanny, The Battersea Poltergeist, and The Witch Farm – all known for blending real-life witness accounts with expert analysis and spine-tingling suspense.
The call-out comes ahead of his much-anticipated Uncanny: Fear of the Dark live tour, which arrives at Newcastle Theatre Royal on Sunday, November 9 (already sold out).
The stage show, which also has a date booked at Darlington Hippodrome on February 8, 2026 promises to take Danny’s signature blend of storytelling and paranormal investigation to the next level.
But before then, whether you're a student who heard footsteps in an empty hallway, a resident who sensed a presence in an old flat, or someone who remembers tales from decades past, now’s the time to speak up.
As Danny himself might say: “The door is open.”
