Listen now on BBC Sounds!

Radio Times: “This is something very special… magical realism with a heart.”

The Observer: “The tone echoes that old-fashioned, twisty coming-of-age movie Labyrinth beautifully.”

In this week's #Uncanny episode...solicitor Kate leaves her rural life in Yorkshire to move into her new partner’s house in London but, before long, she is plagued by disturbing, seemingly inexplicable phenomena…

Is it the house, or Kate herself, who is haunted?😱😱😱

I got sent this photo by Daisy of a possible UFO sighting.
What do we think? Funny looking cloud, or aliens popping by? 🛸

And, very appropriately, we have a BRAND NEW #UNCANNY EPISODE dropping tomorrow and it is a UFO CASE! Will be live from 7am!

Who, or what, is living in the house with them? 😬
