In this episode of True Hauntings Podcast, we investigate the strange and unsettling case of The Cideville Poltergeist, one of France’s most unusual 19th-century paranormal mysteries.

In 1850, at a quiet presbytery in Cideville, Normandy, two boys studying under Curé Jean Tinel became the centre of a terrifying series of unexplained events: mysterious knocks in the walls, flying objects, moving furniture, musical raps, strange voices, and claims of a dark figure haunting the house.

But this was no ordinary ghost story.

The haunting soon turned into a legal battle when local shepherd Félix Thorel was accused of being connected to the disturbances through sorcery. Thorel denied the claims and sued the priest for defamation, turning the Cideville Poltergeist into a rare paranormal case that ended up in court.

Was this a genuine poltergeist haunting? Were the boys responsible for the activity? Was Thorel a sorcerer, a scapegoat, or simply the man the village chose to blame? And how did fear, religion, gossip, and reputation turn strange knocks in a priest’s house into one of France’s most fascinating haunted history cases?

Join us as we explore the priest, the shepherd, the two boys, and the curse that went to court.

What if Australia’s official guardian of film and sound was also one of its most haunted buildings? In this episode of True Hauntings, Anne and Renata dive deep into the chilling paranormal activity reported inside the National Film and Sound Archive in Canberra.

Staff witness tapes flying from impossible machines, doors opening by themselves, and lights flickering with no one nearby. Schoolchildren repeatedly see a little girl waving from a high grate that once overlooked the morgue — a friendly wave from a place no living child could reach. In the infamous Blood Room, visitors feel faint, smell decay, and watch torches die instantly. An electrical contractor was reportedly pinned to a wall by an unseen force, while ghost hunters recorded batteries draining simultaneously and a shadow figure moving through the dark.

Who benefits from these stories staying alive — and why do credible witnesses, including long-term sceptics, keep reporting the same unsettling encounters? From the founder’s apparition stepping out of a wall to the deeper cultural weight still felt in the building, this is a haunting where the past refuses to stay archived.

If you love real ghost stories, poltergeist activity, and haunted Australian landmarks, you won’t want to miss this one.

Listen now and decide: is the NFSA truly one of Australia’s most haunted places?

You don’t usually expect a place built for prayer to carry a reputation that makes even locals lower their voices when they talk about it… but that’s exactly what’s happened at the Abbey of Santa Maria di Lucedio. Out in the quiet rice fields of northern Italy, this monastery has managed to collect centuries’ worth of rumours that feel just a little too persistent to brush off as imagination.

What makes this one interesting is not just the stories people like to repeat, it’s the uncomfortable gaps in the history. You’ve got a powerful religious order, land that was considered sacred long before the abbey was even built, and a period of time where discipline, control and silence were part of daily life. When you start looking at it properly, you realise this isn’t just a “haunted monastery” story. It’s about what happens when power goes unchecked behind thick stone walls and nobody on the outside is really asking questions.

In this episode of the True Hauntings Podcast, we’re not just walking into a building with a spooky reputation. We’re stepping into a place where faith, fear and human behaviour collided in ways that still don’t sit right, even hundreds of years later. And if you’re wondering whether all of that could leave something behind… well, that’s exactly where we’re heading.
