Step into the chilling story of Mary Blandy, the 18th-century Englishwoman whose act of patricide shocked a nation and whose spirit is said to still linger in Henley-on-Thames.


In this episode, Yvette Fielding explores the historical and paranormal dimensions of Mary’s life, crime, and legacy.


We begin with Mary Blandy’s biography, her relationship with her father, and the influence of her lover that led to a deadly betrayal.


Then, we recount the events of her father’s poisoning, her trial, and execution, setting the stage for the ghostly tales that followed.


Discover the haunted locations linked to Mary Blandy, from her family home to the streets of Henley, and hear eyewitness accounts and local folklore that suggest her presence still lingers centuries later.


Yvette delves into the paranormal theories behind these hauntings, examining why murder cases often leave restless spirits and exploring the investigations that have attempted to capture evidence of her ghost.


Finally, we reflect on the connections between executions, violent crime, and lingering hauntings, and consider the enduring legacy of Mary Blandy—both as a historical figure and as a spectral presence in English folklore.


Join us for a journey through history, horror, and the unexplained in this week's episode of Paranormal Activity.
