Podcast: Weird Darkness: Paranormal & True Crime StoriesPublished On: Fri Aug 14 2026
Description: In 1957, three teenage naval cadets were sent to map a Suffolk village they had never seen, and came back describing a place that didn't belong to its own century. It's remembered now as the Kersey Time Slip – and decades on, no one can agree on what those three boys actually walked into.EPISODE BLOG PAGE (includes sources): https://weirddarkness.com/KerseyTimeslipREAD or DOWNLOAD the full transcript of this episode: https://weirddarkness.tiny.us/yeyty99kFEATURED STORIES IN THIS EPISODE: Sandra Hughes was the kind of outdoorswoman who could disappear into the Sierra National Forest for weeks on purpose and walk back out just fine, so when she drove in to wait out the pandemic in the summer of 2020 and didn't come back at all, she left behind a case that still has no answer. (Disappearance of Sandra Hughes) *** Ken McElroy was shot to death on a small-town main street in front of dozens of neighbors, and more than forty years later, every one of them still says the same thing: they saw nothing. (The Town Bully of Skidmore) *** Three Royal Navy cadets walked into a Suffolk village in October 1957 and found a butcher’s shop full of rotting oxen, no wires, no people, and no church.
