What if the “haunting” was staged? What if the poltergeist activity was faked by someone close to you? Someone violent?

Why People Fake Ghosts & How We Exposed Them

In this revealing ASSAP Paranormal Webinar, seasoned investigator Caroline McKendrick Gibson shares three real cases from her files where people deliberately faked paranormal activity — sometimes with shocking motives.

From coercive control using fake scratches, causing burns, to an elaborate pulley-system hoax caught on video, and a dramatic family case ruined by one explosive lie — these stories expose the darker side of ghost hunting.

With psychological insights from psychotherapist Martin Gibson, this episode explores why people hoax, how investigators spot deception, and what it means for genuine paranormal claims.

If you enjoy intelligent discussions about the paranormal, real investigations, and critical thinking — this one’s for you.

Ever felt a sickening thud against your car, only to find nothing there? Join us as we explore the chilling road ghosts of Nottinghamshire, featuring the legendary Black Monk of Felley and the mysterious "floating woman" of Nuthall. We also investigate the high strangeness of Linby, a village packed with time-slip anomalies, Cavalier ghosts, and even a warning from a WWII propagandist. It’s a mix of monks, UFOs, and the truly unexplained

In this talk I separate the facts from the folklore.

We dive into the real history of eccentric widow Jenny Burton – the pipe-smoking 95-year-old whose family still live in Hucknall – alongside the very different tales of a murdered old woman, a young girl who hanged herself for love, and the chilling 1817 murder of Elizabeth Shepard whose memorial still stands on the A60.

Along the way we meet hooded figures, headless coachmen, vanishing legs in white breeches, and how one passionate speaker at Parameet accidentally created a brand new piece of local folklore by weaving all three together.

Along with a number of other notable stories from the region!

A proper deep dive into local history and explore also how ghost stories evolve.
