New from Always True Crime, Paranormia explores true crime stories that are haunted by something otherworldly, where paranoia meets the paranormal. The episode I'm sharing with you is called The Ouija Board Trial. 

In early 1994, the murder of Harry and Nicola Fuller brought twelve jurors to a Brighton hotel, locked away from the world with nothing but silence, photographs, and each other. As the pressure mounted, four of them reached for a Ouija board, half a joke, half a plea for clarity, and asked the dead for answers. The verdict that followed would crumble under the weight of its own strangeness. This episode explores how isolation bends the mind, how belief can slip through the cracks of law, and how a single night in a seaside hotel became one of the most unsettling chapters in British justice.

New episodes of Paranormia drop every Wednesday, wherever you get your podcasts.
