In this episode we travel to RAF Henlow where phantom footsteps in the snow, and a poltergeist are said to be linked to a daring pioneer of parachuting from the 1920s. We'll learn about the hauntings, and this airman's daredevil antics which tragically led to his untimely death. Nat Doig also shares some of her eerie memories of living at RAF Henlow as a child in the 1980s, including ghost stories, creepy world war II buildings, and a haunted landscape.
