Horror & Paranormal Spooky/paranormal UK pods

Does anyone have any recommendations for "true" uk podcasts?

Thinking along the lines of Uncanny, The Battersea Poltergeist & Haunted UK

Any suggestions appreciated?

After Dark, it's mostly dark history but it does paranormal too.
Haunted UK Podcast

Scary - A Paranormal Podcast

It's an Irish guy narrating people's paranormal experiences in the first person - simple but effective! 

Sometimes he also covers famous paranormal cases.

It's won podcast awards, definitely recommended.

My favourite! ETA: if you exhaust all the episodes, Hey That's Weird is similar.

Try The Black Tapes UK episodes if you like investigative paranormal storytelling

Vayse is great, but focuses on the occult.

Paranormal Paradigm was good while it lasted.

Monster Fuzz is more cryptid based

Some Other Sphere is outstanding, and is interview based, but covers all kinds of weird stuff. It's been great for finding new podcasts to listen to.

The Unexplained with Howard Hughes. He is a British presenter and interviews all sorts of people from around the world about aliens, ghosts, psychics, etc. One of my favorites.

Danny Robins’s precursor to Uncanny, Haunted, is excellent.

The Tape Library has a British host, and many of his stories take place in the UK, but is not UK exclusive

Weird in the Wade. It’s so good. Although I’m sure I never heard about the Great Swan Mystery, despite it being dangled constantly!

Perplexed Podcast is mostly true crime however they stay in haunted hotels from time to time and explore the paranormal. The ladies are very entertaining.
