In this gripping continuation of our Murders That Haunt series, Yvette Fielding returns to rural England to uncover a case where betrayal was served at the dinner table.

In May 1934, in the quiet Lincolnshire village of Kirkby-on-Bain, Arthur Major sat down to eat a simple meal of corned beef prepared by his wife. Within hours, he was dead: poisoned with strychnine.

His killer, Ethel Major, would go on to become the only woman ever executed at HM Prison Hull.

But did the story end at the gallows?

We explore the chilling reports that have surfaced in the decades since: from the condemned corridor of Hull Prison, where footsteps are still said to echo, to the Major family home where an ordinary kitchen carries an uneasy atmosphere, and finally to the quiet grounds of St Mary's Church, where some claim a solitary figure walks near the boundary wall after dusk.

Through witness accounts, folklore, and paranormal theory, we investigate whether something of that final betrayal still lingers across these locations, not as a dramatic haunting, but as something far quieter… and perhaps more unsettling.

This is the story of suspicion, poison, and a legacy that may never have truly settled.

This is Murders That Haunt: The Corned Beef Killer.

This week on Monday Mailtime, Producer Dom dives into two listener stories that feel less like ghost encounters… and more like something territorial, ancient, and watching.

First, Daniel takes us to a vast Victorian cemetery in Birmingham, where something unseen appears to correct the living. Flowers are repositioned with precision. Soil smooths itself flat. And a slow, deliberate exhale follows him each time he leaves, as if the land itself is enforcing order. This doesn’t feel like a loved one watching over him… it feels like something that owns the ground.

Then, Charlotte shares her chilling experience at the Angel of the North after dark, where the towering sculpture doesn’t just loom… it responds. Metallic groans fall into rhythm with her movements, unseen footsteps track her down the slope, and for a brief, impossible moment… the Angel itself appears to have shifted.

Expect theories around territorial entities, land-bound forces, and why some locations seem to reject human interference entirely.

Because sometimes… it’s not about what’s haunting the place.

It’s about what the place is.

This month’s Listener Special of Paranormal Activity with Yvette Fielding dives into some of the most chilling, thought-provoking real-life experiences we’ve ever received.

From unexplained sightings caught on camera… to moments that feel like time itself slipped… these are stories that don’t just scare you — they stay with you.

We begin with Darren in Somerset, whose sons captured a mysterious object hovering in the sky just after sunset. Drone? Balloon? Or something far stranger?

Ruth shares a deeply unsettling experience in her own words, raising questions about what we hear… and what might be listening back.

Then Angela tells a story that feels almost impossible to explain: a young child speaking words she shouldn’t know, hinting at memories from before she was born. Can souls choose their families?

Lindsay describes a terrifying moment of foresight, witnessing a car crash seconds before it happened, and possibly avoiding being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Is this a glimpse into the future… or something else entirely?

And finally, Tiffany recounts repeated sleep paralysis encounters that go far beyond the usual explanations, where a corner of her room didn’t just look wrong… it felt like something was trying to come through.

These are your stories. Your experiences.

And as ever, we try to understand what they might mean.
