283# The Thornton Road Poltergeist | Britain’s Forgotten HauntingOn this week’s Never a Straight Answer Podcast, we’re pulling back the veil on one of Britain’s strangest and most overlooked hauntings — the Thornton Road Poltergeist of 1981.

We’ll walk through the terrifying daily events inside that quiet terraced home: unexplained bangs, flying objects, ghostly voices, and the toll it took on the family who lived there. Along the way, we’ll dig into police reports, newspaper accounts, and theories — from fraud to genuine haunting.
