30 East Drive looks like any ordinary house - until you learn about the 50+ year reign of terror that's made it Britain's most dangerous haunted location.


In August 1966, the Pritchard family moved into what they thought was their dream home. Instead, they got 15 years of pure hell from something they nicknamed "Fred" - a violent entity that would drag children by their hair, hurl furniture with bone-crushing force, and physically attack anyone who dared enter his domain.


This isn't your typical ghost story. We're talking about documented police reports, medical records, and hundreds of witnesses who've encountered the Black Monk of Pontefract - a seven-foot shadow figure that still terrorizes visitors today.


🔥 TONIGHT WE UNCOVER:



  • The Pritchard family's 15-year nightmare

  • Why this poltergeist case rewrote the rules

  • The medieval monastery connection that may explain Fred's rage

  • Modern ghost hunters who STILL get attacked

  • The shocking historical truth behind the haunting


Writer Tom Cuniff discovered that 30 East Drive sits on ancient monastery land - but what did this medieval monk do to make him so violently angry in death?
