  • The Spirit of Old Jeffery: John Wesley & The Epworth Poltergeist

    The Spirit of Old Jeffery: John Wesley & The Epworth Poltergeist
    Dec 16 2025
    Over the Christmas of 1716, during a time of political tension and uncertainty in England, strange events began to trouble Epworth Rectory. After nightfall, the home of Reverend Samuel Wesley was disturbed by unexplained sounds. Soft footsteps thumped in hallways, as dull thuds knocked on the walls and door latches rattled in their housings. The Wesley family spoke cautiously of a presence they called Old Jeffrey, an unseen force that seemed intent on making itself known. Whether trick, imagination, or something darker, the disturbances unsettled the household for only a short time, but held a potential influence that would be felt centuries later, through the beliefs of the son, John Wesley, who would later go on to be a founding member of the Methodist church.

Love listening to good storytelling. Love the shipwreck histories. Fascinating and well investigated. I feel like in always learning something.

So interesting and somewhat soothing

I have not found anyone better for bedtime stories, be it about the topic, or the performance, so far nothing beats it. whether I can't sleep, or am fighting to stay awake, it's a win/win. also enjoy to get through the work day when I decide to change it up from listening to music. i love what you do! IMO this series is flawless! I like the effect used to sound like an older recording for dialogue and first person... nice touch!!!

perfect!

I had started listening to this years ago but stopped listening because… life! I was so happy to come across it again and to discover new episodes are still being recorded! Great histories told with a (relatively) unbiased opinion. Highly recommend!

Love this podcast!
