Summary

Danny Robins hosts the visualised podcast for real-life supernatural encounters.

Emily’s Room is the story of Angela, who moves with her young family into a new dream house – where something terrifying apparently lurks.

Angela feels a strange sense of presence and her daughter Emily claims to see the ghost of a little girl and an old man in her bedroom. When a babysitter also seemingly witnesses this presence, things all start to feel very real – three pet hamsters are found dead, laid out in the very same place in the hall and Emily is seemingly pushed down the stairs – by, she claims, the Old Man.

Danny delves deeper into Angela's story in this extended podcast episode, uncovering fresh evidence, new leads and surprising revelations about this case.

Assisting Danny in his search for answers are principal witness Angela; regular paranormal experts Dr Ciarán O’Keeffe and Evelyn Hollow; and actor, writer and celebrity guest expert Charlie Cooper.

Written and presented by Danny Robins Experts: Evelyn Hollow and Ciaran O'Keeffe Special guest: Charlie Cooper Editing and sound design: Nick Price and Charlie Brandon-King Theme music by Gazelle Twin Produced by Danny Robins and Simon Barnard
